The DPM kits have tremendous potential and lend themselves to infinite kitbashing - shorten them, wrap them around corners creating a corner building, stack them on top to create taller structures, transfer the cornices from one to another, add roof top clutter like Art Currens did in so many of his artricles in MR long ago, and so on. And don't let the names that DPM has garnered them with dictate what the particular store, residence, or industrial building is all about - a clothing store could be a real estate office, a townhouse a flop house, a trucking terminal a plumbing supplier. . . They're appropriate for scenes set from 1900 to present day. And their engraving is first rate. All that is needed is a bit of immagination, some paint and some weathering. <br />They work for jist about any locale in North America, too. Good stuff, and I agree, they're perfect for a starting point when doing "the seedy side of town". <br />BILL
