Well January came round a bit too quick for me - Happy New Year everyone - Have just updated the site with the new releases which include 6mm tents, a set of Normandy housing and some Medieval structures, plus added a few more items to the previews page. http://www.levenminiatures.co.uk/

Thanks for the comments.

sorry - didn't make it clear - yes, all models are 6mm - I'm on with some 10mm housing but am still trying to sort the most efficient method of casting.

Am working on walls, wells, fountains and statues - and am currently looking for suitable 10mm figures to convert into statues.

Just got my order, comparison picture with GW epic and MWG fantasy, UK 1p coin ⌀20mm:

Cast quality is very good. Buildings are 'truescale', e.g. slightly (but not problematically) undersized for games workshop scale 6mm. The detail is of very fine/thin relief – realistic but would require more than just dry brushing to bring out well. I will be ordering more :)

I agree with Apoc's post above very nice cleanly cast buildings, i have some myself. But they are mostly a little small for epic. I will be getting more for my historical armies however. I suppose it depends on what you want from your built up areas. I like the right height but small footprint idea used by Total Battle Miniatures town range so i will be using my Leven stuff for this, which is ideal for doing built up areas that do not take up to much table space.

hmm would they be more of the right size with thinner bases? if I use 0,8mm bases and have the figures own bases sanded down it should look better?

From my pic, yes. If you hold the houses up a bit to get rid of the base they look a much better scale match. Still a bit large, but they'd bump their heads on the doorframe rather than having to bend down to get in.
