The search for model buildings	There are 3 replies

I've been searching on google & ebay for modern to semi modern non military buildings which can be used for 28mm scale figures (1/76 scale?) and i'm getting no where. There are Airfix models which seem to be all ruins, Britain's is for farming buildings, and although there are card board templates they are either complex to make (and i'm rubish at constructing these) or they are too small. There are plenty of buildings for 15mm range which are no use to me. Can anybody give me a firm who deals in what i'm looking for or are there any specific web sites i can try?

Sorry Paul I nearly missed this post.
Ready made buildings can be sourced from pmc on ebay but they are usually more 1930's style.
For some modern/futuristic there may be something useful from WorldWorks (I think Justin might have some). These are intended for printing out on card but I print onto self-adhesive paper then stick them to foam-board.
Have a look on DriveThru RPG for card buildings (search the site for 3D terrain).
There's not much out there but as you say what is is mainly card or the wrong scale.
