1/35 European Rural Watermill Vernacular, Resin Model Diorama Kit, Historical Theme, Unassembled and Unpainted
This 1/35 scale diorama kit contains a European rural watermill and accompanying vernacular houses rendered in grey resin — the kind of working countryside architecture that forms the backbone of historical diorama scenes. Every component ships unpainted and unassembled, ready for your preferred primer, paints, and weathering approach. No figures are included, leaving the storytelling entirely to the builder. A demanding, rewarding build for painters who want authentic civilian scenery at 1/35.

Beautiful building model made of styrofoam and laser-cut parts. Unbeatable for the price! Shipped quickly and was securely packaged, highly recommended!

Great, but the gutter came in pieces in the package, see photo. I would have liked to have received a different one.

A very nice kit to add to any countryside diorama, very detailed and a stack of different materials to use. there is also the flexibility to construct it as 1 whole kit or 3 separate kits of the millwheel, mill and storage shed. the only drawback is that the instructions are not for novices as some of the construction is fiddly and not greatly explained. but still a great kit.
