Fiona Adores Heroes [Edit2 - Site now working just fine!]

Interesting stuff... I'm looking forward to learning more, and seeing new stuff from them!

**MeanGreenStompa**

Looks very infinity friendly.

**Commander Cain**

Very nice work indeed!

Here are some pics for the lazy among us.

Anyone know who makes the figures displayed in the pics? They look pretty cool as well!

Quick question, for MDF is this expensive... I really have no idea. It seems just a little lower than resin stuff which is a little odd.

**Brother SRM**

Those are cool terrain pieces. Not crazy about MDF terrain yet, but I like the look of em.

**insaniak**

Looks a little pricey for the level of detail (or lack thereof). Functional, just not particularly exciting.

**notprop**

They remind me of dumpy little Lego buildings.

I don't think they compare favourably pricewise with say Sarissa's more detailed peices but might provide a bit of different "texture" on a table with other ranges. I do really like the walkway/bridge.

The big bonus of MDF terrain of course is the horrible horrible smell; I had mine built and painted the day after purchase as I could stand the smell any longer!

**BrookM**

Their site appears to be down, so can't comment on the price, but they are a tad too simplistic if you ask me. Sarissa and MicroArt Studios offer superior designs with more detail.

**alarmingrick**

Call me odd man out I guess. I rather like the Spartan look.
Plenty of room to add my own skulls.

**Kroothawk**

Just for the record: Website is working again.

**Gavin Thorne**

I like 'em. They don't have a lot of detail, but could easily be painted up with graffiti and the like to give more character. I'm looking for more non-Imperial Gothic terrain and these fit the bill nicely.

Let them air out enough and they lose the smell. Takes a few days.

**Alpharius**

If you live in the USA, is there a way to purchase stuff from them yet?

**Mathieu Raymond**

the models are imperial regulars from Warzone, when they tried to reboot their system with a massive starter kit. They are available in bundles on ebay. I have some painted and some extra if you want them. PM me.

The new item include;
Buildings with double width doors
Longer ladders
Walkway
New door designs
Modular fences
and more.

The buildings are easily to stack, allowing you to create unique cityscapes. Each building has a removable roof with playable interiors and buildings can also be joined together with the use of bridges.

The models are suitable for all 28mm sci-fi wargames and are cut from high quality 3mm MDF and are easy to put together with some PVA or wood glue.

Available in her ebay store:

**insaniak**

A little bland, but the prices are decent.

**Alpharius**

Looks like they only ship within the UK?

**Mad4Minis**

I really like it...too bad I mostly got out of 28mm scifi gaming a few months back.

**heartserenade**

Dunno, I rather like the clean look. Very... modern, for lack of a better word. And yes, graffiti and posters are great for these kind of terrain, if you're inclined.

**Ian Sturrock**

If I want basic, then cork tiles are cheaper, and almost as quick to assemble.

As soon as they ship to the USA, I'm in!

I'm with you, plus if painted up right they would look pretty good with MAS and Warmill stuff.

I mean honestly, most cities don't have exact carbon copies of every building, so variety is nice.
