Those buildings and platforms are produced by Thormarilion, and are quite expensive.

I was thinking of buying a few, but decided I'd be better off making my own. It's a really awesome peace though! I like the barge and the colours :-D

Thomarillion's product is too neat for the Laketown of the film which is more rundown and ramshackle while still having the ornate carvings that remind people of the former glories.

As far as I know they rae produced by Ziterdes (but Thomarillion sells them too) and I don't think they're that expenisve, at least dompared to GW's Terrain prices.

wouldn't you be able to create laketown scenery with little conversion to the goblin town platforms?

Have a look at this image:

Much more variety in height, more attic and dormer windows, balconies and more ramshackle elements. The more I look at it, the more appealing it becomes. All we need is a Windlance model (I am sure it will come, hopefully IN PLASTIC)

Was this produced before or after TDOS came out?

I thought as much. Reminiscent of Alan Lee's work!

Are they on the same scale as GW's models?
