First Look
The Mini Art kit of the City Building can be used in any city setting that requires an older architectural style. Plenty of options provided in the kit will allow you to use this building kit regardless of where your building location is being modeled.
Mini Art's kit of the City Building consists of 201 parts molded in 6 different colors. Molding is of the highest quality and there is no flash. Details abound throughout the parts and this will make a great looking building when finished. There are no interior details provided. The really nice feature of this kit is how modular the assembly is. With a couple of these kits, you could make several variations to the main building. Lots of options are included with the kit including all of the down spouting. While the detail is first rate, and the building will look amazing with your 1/72 scale army, another thing that struck out at me was how nice this kit would be for school projects and the like. With the kit molded in so many different colors, kids could assemble it and not have to paint it. Well done Mini Art!
My sincere thanks to MRC for this review sample!
