Photo-realistic art
According to SMC, the ‘kits’ are created using high quality, photo-realistic brick, roofing and paving textures for ultimate realism. Many come with optional or pre-applied weathering effects giving you realistic models in a fraction of the time. Sounds like they have a team of eager-beaver Photoshoppers keen to use the airbrush tool!
The SMS range is expanding to cover an array of popular scales, so whatever you're modelling, they’ve got you covered - well, that’s the aim, with textures ranging from paving and asphalt to brick, medieval stone and more.
Scale Model Scenery back their downloads with a decent (and simple) guarantee - try them for seven days, and if you're not happy, you get your money back.
SMS are keen to hear from model makers - if there’s something you would like, let them know, as they’re open to suggestions. Add pix or references to your email request and you stand a fair chance of seeing it appearing in model form to download.

Neatly done products for scale model fans, and well worth a try. The garage scenes take our fancy, while uses for the tarmac textures are near-infinite.
