aka_hazard Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 Does anyone use the O scale buildings from OGR Publishing Inc ( http://ogaugerr.com/railroad/product_info.php?cPath=22_31_44&products_id=52 ) ? If so what do you think of them? Do you have any photos with figures next to them for size comparison?

Mala Fide Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 Oh my... Really nice buildings. Again I share your concerns with the scale but according to wiki o-gauge should be 1:48th or 32mm. Should work... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amarel Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 O gauge is 1/43rd scale (or, at least it is in the UK). This article is about finding cars the right size, but the principle is the same: http://www.smallcuts.net/articles/vehicle_comparison.jsp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nilus Posted November 1, 2010 Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 If you are using Train terrain for Mini games O scale is the closest to most 28 to 32 mm games. Its roughly the same which is all you really need since the Malifaux minis are really only approx 32mm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowbeast Posted November 1, 2010 Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 O gauge is 1/43rd scale (or, at least it is in the UK). This article is about finding cars the right size, but the principle is the same: http://www.smallcuts.net/articles/vehicle_comparison.jsp 1/48 in the US and Australia, though may be different in Tasmania, 1/43 in the UK and 1/45 on the continent, though I have only seen card kits of locos in that scale. Those small buildings look mighty tempting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aka_hazard Posted November 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 Thanks for the feedback everyone. I have a trip over to the US in a couple of weeks so I'll see if I can pick one of these up whilst I'm there. If I do I'll post a write up, and some photos, here - that's assuming no-one else does so first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Shaper Posted November 1, 2010 Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 Don't you hate it when you can't see a shipping price! Really nice looking buildings! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aka_hazard Posted November 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 So I went ahead and ordered Vinny's Grill which can be seen here http://ogaugerr.com/railroad/index.php?cPath=22_31_49. Shipping was only $5.00 to Spain so I was very pleased. The building arrived today and I've thrown it together to see how it looks with the Malifaux figures. The kit does not come with interior floors but each storey is pre-marked so you can easily split the different levels. I've done this and temporarily used some foamboard flooring to get a feel of how it will look. The building itself is made of nice thick plastic and seems very sturdy. This building has a flat roof that sits just below the top of the walls. I have left this off in the photos to show the interior space plus I will have to add a chimney or something so that I can easily remove the roof as needed. Here's some photos to show the scale against the Malifaux figures. The two figures outside are the Convict Gunslinger and Lilith whilst Papa Loco and The Executioner are battling inside. When the building is painted and interiors added I think they will look outstanding. I will definitely be ordering more of these in the future to build my suburb of Malifaux.
