Got these from a large flea market going on near our home. only paid $4 each for the 2
I'm going to use these 2 on the upper section to make a small farm.
Paid $2 for this. But not sure if will use it.
Hey that barn is a Plasticville! (See my other thread) And by the way the roof is backwards. Nice buy, I really like the house. I always thought the barn was too small.
Not bad at all. A litlte detail work with some paint and a bit of weathering can go a long way. Hitting them with dullcoat will kill the shiney look of the plastic ( mask the window glass ). I've picked up similar items at yard sales and white elephant tables at train shows for a couple of dollars and after a short evening with some paint and dullcoat they look a lot better. Not exactly foreground buildings but nice inexpensive and passable structures for further back.
You've got a point there. The issue that I'd personally have is that I'd want to tear everything down to paint it.

Gee, I opened this thread expecting to see an HO scale flea market.
It could be done using one of those "drive in movie" kits from a few years ago.
Those are nice pieces for a bargain price. My own rule is no white buildings on my layout. Just looks too bright somehow. Beige is ok. Earthtones and darker weathered colors look more realistic in N scale at least.
