Wondering on what to get out of a small hut from them or one from T&M on ebay.

I've bought numerous small stuff from Lineside, a VERY good service, most recommended. I have made a T&M kit, a little tricky to make, but I have heard Lineside's buildings are good.

Thanks for the recommendation. Not sure which I prefer the style of in terms of looks. The prices are about the same price. I'm just going to start with the cheapest hut anyway.

What paint do you use (I see that lineside sell some sort of acrylic paint).

Some of the lineside accessory bits look great (garden tools, garden shed etc).

The best paint for outdoors is enamel paint. Acrylic wont last unless you heavily varnish etc because it is not water proof. Fine if you want to bring the buildings indoors.

Hmmmm, there is this place as well...
