Review: Micro Art Studios Urban Building

A painted promo shot from Micro Art

I've been waiting very patiently to get my hands on the Micro Art Infinity terrain for quite some time. Although I've only got the District 4 Apartment 1 building, it does give you a good indication of the build quality of their pieces. I'm hoping to be able to get my hands on some of their walkways and maybe even the resin walls soon. But, for now you'll have to make do with just the apartment block building.

Product Description

There are 130 pieces! Yes, you did read that right. One-hundred-and-thirty pieces. That is a lot of stuff. True not all of it is required, and much of it is duplicate pieces depending on the configuration of building you go for, however as a rough estimate there has to be roughly 30 pieces used in the construction of each floor on average. So saying an entire 3 story building is made up of roughly 90 pieces, 102 if you include the two balconies, isn't stretching the truth. It's a bloody complex build and make no mistake. Although there are various ways to 'make' or 'configure' the building realistically it's all pretty much going to be the same sort of layout. However, the option to leave the building as open or closed as you like with the windows is a nice touch, the removable window shutters increase the 'theoretical' number of configurations significantly. This building has clearly been designed for Infinity. The building still comes attached to its HDF spru's, 6 sheets in total and you'll have to be very careful about removing the parts from them. Once or twice I came close to snapping thin pieces as I removed them, and scoring with a craft knife is about as useful as a chocolate teapot, so be very careful, you have been warned!
