True that some first timid attempts were performed not long ago, by creating a couple of battlefield scenery pieces (a bailed out command Panzer and a downed I-15 fighter), that have proven to be successful enough to encourage us to try and expand the range with a new series of elements --either large buildings or simple widgets.
So that, taking advantage of the mutual trust arisen after our retailing partnership with Surus Creations (by which we became a vendor of their "Belchite" 1:100 scale SCW scenery), we alongside met a further agreement with them for a similar 1:72 scale range to be made in exclusive for Minairons, under our own make.
Little afterwards, work started on a first project --under some kind of deliberate news blackout, admittedly: it consists of a Modernist style Wine Cellar, inspired on the numerous cooperative farming facilities built between 1914 and 1925 by the Commonwealth of Catalonia --a semi-autonomous government institution of these years.
Despite work on masters is well advanced now, so that some preliminary pictures might be already shown, we've preferred to let the whole prototype be finished before sharing with you. Pictures will follow in few days, I promise. meanwhile, I've thought you would like to take a glance on the thing plans, so as to get a first taste on the thing:
Front view
Side view
Architectural detail
Some kit elements (such as chimney, for instance) have been devised as optional, depending on whether the user plans to build an industrial factory in an urban background, or as an oil or wine cellar for his countryside settings instead.
Chimney
As said above, work on this superb building masters is well advanced now, so that we'll be able to show you pictures of it in not too many days' time.
Cheers,
Lluís
