Well, not "Plasticville" as a brand, but certainly "Plasticville" in approach.
Back when I lived (1986-1990) in the heart of the Ozarks (and modeled an Ozark theme, imagine that), I started with this HO AHM snap-together .99 cent building (well, .99 cents at the time!):
I wanted something more typical of us Ozark Hillbillies that lived among the Ozarks, and a very modest home (instead of a nice two story home) would be more in keeping with my 1960s time frame for my HO layout.
So, after some cuts here, and some distressing there, throwing on some paint/weathering to make it look like aged wood, adding a rusted tin roof, and what have you's, I had this...
...sagging porch and all.
It was to be placed on field rock footing piers once placed on the layout.
From that model I wandered off into Sn3, traditional 3-rail, scale S, HO Colorado... and now I'm again back to modeling the good ol' Ozarks. Fortunately, I kept this model all those years. So, it looks like it will once again be set among an HO layout depicting the railroading, and life among, the Ozarks!
So, not "Plasticville" in brand, but does this count?
