Hi Sandor,
 My take is to download and print out my scenery, very inexpensive and many are customizable and you can do as many as you like. Here is a good sire to start looking if this is the kind of things your looking for.

Hello Snagy
Try looking on the Pinterest site, they have literary thousands of ideas in the Model Railway Section and in Medieval buildings, also Dolls Houses, they give very impressive modelling ideas and  models.
Kindest regards

Hi Snagy  Here are some more idea to take a look at The Terrain Tutor more for War Gamers but lots of stuff on Terrain Like one  4 Cheap & Easy tall grass you will be surprised by what you can use :o I tried going on the page on how to use printed sheets to build model railroad structures but could not :( Another Kalmabach book is Painting Back Drops By Mike Danneman . So that is about it just enough to get you into trouble.  ::) Willie

Snagy.  First of all one of the things you need is a book on Perspective Drawing I bought mine many years ago :o Second Model Rail Road Magazine printed by Kalmabach K Books here is a list of what I have
                                                     1. How to Build Dioramas by Sheperd  Pain
                                                     2. Detailing Tips and Techniques No 35
                                                     3. The Art of the Diorama By Ray Anderson he was a great friend
                                                     4. Realistic Model Railroad 3rd Edition By Dave Frary
                                                     5. A very old Military Modelling special Stan Catchpol's Modelling Workshop
   What you want to do is build the back lot like MGM Fox, Universal  :o most of them are facades. Another thing is use what you have at hand :o The Local Hardware Store has a gold mine of stuff for hobby building.  Last is the miniatures page History section lots of War Game buildings great for Ideas.  I would Create my own and go on You Tube there are two webs that are really great  :o Willie

I would need medieval (15-16 c.) building-facades as for background that fit to 30 mm figures.
Are there any ready-made or kit ones availble or it is better to create them on my own, or use a photo/paintwork in properly magnified?
Thanks.
Sandor
