To paraphrase another review I left on another HD building, I'm returning to N-Scale after some years and I'm starting a new layout. The search for structures went to the Google and I found HD Custom Designs. I grew up in central and western N.C. and many of HD's buildings hit home. I ordered 3 as a sample and was completely satisfied.
The models are3D prints with excellent detail and minimal printer artifacts. My 'General Store" only had a slight artifact on the rear awning ledger, easily removed. Haven't painted yet, but there is an excellent video on YouTube showing the painting of an HO version. ['Detailing the Arched Stone Building' by HO Scale Rio Grande in the San Luis Valley]
I'm satisfied and will be back for more.
The model is fantastic. It is a 3d printed S Scale model. The brick work is very well done and the bricks are to scale. No sanding is needed and the building comes assembled. All in all a very well executed piece. I look forward to more items in S from them.
I haven’t tried painting the store yet. Don’t see why there would be an issue. I thought it might need to be relegated to a background structure but it will be fine anywhere on the layout. I also bought the Sears house. Goo too. Hopefully more will be offered in S scale.
