I have a an area this is just to shallow to put an entire building in…who sells building facades?

Thanks in advance.

Walthers and dpm have some, although walthers have some depth, then there’s craftsman styles from fos scale, model tech studios,bars mills. You could just buy some kits and build them as flats instead. Alsoalthers has background buildings printed on heavystock,you could use a combination of both for a better illusion.

The Walthers plastic kits are easily cut down if you dont need the depth. I got a great cast plaster background building from Downtown deco. Out of production now, but shows up on e-bay.


DPM modulars made into flats

The blue building started out as a Rix truck/rail terminal. It’s now a produce distributer.

Hope this helps.
