Modular Structures

Easy to assemble!

The interchangeable plastic wall sections offer unlimited building options and make it easy to create buildings of any size, shape or height. Assemble with plastic model cement or solvent.

Build as Many Stories as You Need:

One-Story Building - Use street or dock level wall sections and cornice.
Two-Story Building - Use street or dock level wall sections, top with one-story wall sections and cornice.
Three-Story Building - Use street or dock level wall sections, top with two-story wall sections and cornice.
More Stories - Use additional wall sections to create as many stories as desired.

Packages include pilasters, door, windows and clear window material where applicable. All sections are the same color.

N Scale

Build anything from a corner gas station to a multi-story office or manufacturing complex. N scale plastic modular parts offer unlimited building options. Interchangeable wall sections make it easy to build a structure of any size, shape and height.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Why is the glue not working to adhere the building walls?
  
  Prior to adhering building pieces together, always wash pieces with warm soapy water to remove any residue. If they still do not adhere, try using a more aggressive plastic cement. Test plastic cement on the back of a building piece. Put a few drops of plastic cement, wait 5-10 seconds, touch with finger, if not sticky and gooey there may be a problem with the cement.
- How do I prevent the walls of my buildings from glowing and light leaking from seams?
  
  Use the Just Plug Light Block Kit. Apply Masking Paint to interior walls to keep the building from glowing. Press the included Ribbon Putty into interior corners, joints, and along the bottom edges of structures to seal the seams.

- How do I remove acrylic or enamel paint from my DPM building?
  
  Poly S™ Easy-Lift-Off will remove paint without harming plastic. It is kind of a slow process but it works.

- What material are the building structures made of?
  
  Our Buildings and Building Kits are mainly injection-molded styrene. Some of the building details are molded slick plastic.
- Do you have any painting and weathering tips for your building kits?
  
  Yes, we do!
  
  Colors are your choice, but we recommend natural brick colors such as rust, tan or other earth tones. Paint door and window trim the same color as the brick or a contrasting color.
  
  Painting
  Airbrush or Hand-brush: Flat finish paint
  Aerosol: Flat finish spray paint
  
  Interior Lighting
  
  Buildings may not be light-ready, but some modelers are adept at adding lighting. If lighting a building, reduce interior glare by painting interior walls and underside of roof flat earth-tone color.
  
  Weathering
  Weathering Wash: Using a paintbrush, dab on small amounts of wash (formula follows) until desired look is achieved. Sponge off excess.
  Formula: Mix 1-part acrylic paint (color suggestion: concrete or aged concrete), 12-parts rubbing alcohol, 8-parts water and 1 drop liquid dish soap.
  Airbrush: Lightly spray thinned flat black paint (color suggestion: grimy black) to areas where natural discoloration can occur (near windows, chimneys, etc.).
  Chalk: Rub a dark color of pastel chalk (color suggestion: gray, black, brown, etc.) on sandpaper to create a chalk dust. Using a paintbrush, dab chalk dust where discoloration can occur.
- Do your modular system wall sections have a brick detail or are they smooth?
  
  N, HO and O scale Modular System Wall Sections have brick detail.
- What are the ratios of the different scales?
  
  Model Scales
  
  G = 1:24
  
  O = 1:48
  
  S = 1:64
  
  OO = 1:76.2
  
  HO = 1:87
  
  N = 1:160
  
  Z = 1:220
- Can I "scribe" and "snap" the DPM wall material?
  
  Yes, you can.
HO Scale

Build anything from a corner gas station to a multi-story office or manufacturing complex. HO scale plastic modular parts offer unlimited building options. Interchangeable wall sections make it easy to build a structure of any size, shape and height.
