Description
Khan el-Khalili bazaar 28mm scale North African terrain is a ornate market designed to be a central fixture of a more affluent neighborhood. It is based on first hand reference pictures taken in Egypt and artwork through out history. This marketplace has been designed to try to bring as much accuracy as possible to your historical game table. Included is a full set our scatter terrain set with extras, (2) 2 story ladders, (2) roof hatches and (2) porches. Please refer to the unpainted photos to see all of the extra bits included. With enough room to have a full on skirmish in the inside the possibilities are endless. Like it’s namesake it’s a reputable place of business, that doesn’t mean your 28mm Toy soliders won’t find trouble if they go looking. Be warned, the proprietors will defend themselves against looters!!
The laser etched detail is such that light gradients of thinned paint over primed surfaces are almost all that is needed to bring this terrain kit to life. Designed to be painted before assembly it will be a snap to tape off different sections, airbrush or spray can paint and assemble to end up with a above average looking building. The engraved stone and wood patterns make this kit come to life easily but also allow simple painting techniques to make it look like far more work was required.
The main building itself measures about 13.75in x 9.0 in and stands 6.5in tall with the roof access building.
All international orders will be emailed a quote for exact shipping cost that will be added to our standard shipping charge as this a large heavy kit.
This kit is made in the USA by Ironheart Artisans from laser cut 2.5mm MDF and is a multi-part kit that will require assembly. The parts come completely cut and are NOT attached to a sheet that need to be punched out.
The painted example pictured is a prototype with certain differences from the model being sold. The unpainted kit shown is exactly what is included and how it is cut, we have made many improvements since the prototype.
