Need Ultra-Modern Building Suggestions

GHQ has some decent buildings but I'm looking for alternatives for a few specific AOs/structure styles. They don't have to be high-quality. In fact I'd prefer affordable stuff that is just easily-identifiable as "period correct", and preferably not paper templates.


1st:
stuff for a North Korean town. A mix of tiled-roof Asian houses, and almost Soviet-looking concrete apartment blocks/government buildings:

kinda cute NorK soldier linked for no legitimate reason whatsoever: http://tinypic.com/r/28wcolz/9

2nd: bombed-out Syrian cities and suburbs. GHQ's Middle-Eastern houses are single-floor structures, so I'm looking for 2-story houses and larger apartments, especially concrete "skeleton" structures that have had some walls blown out.

Scratchbuilding cities isn't really my forte....I sometimes use cardboard from packaging (consumer electronics) to make large structures (Space Marine Fortress Monasteries, government buildings, hospitals, refineries), but I don't have a quick and easy means of crafting decent-looking residential neighborhoods.

Push come to shove I'll start designing some 3D buildings myself, but I REALLY don't wanna go down that road.

There must be Soviet style concrete apartment blocks out there, I wish I knew as I could use a few.... dozen.

Timecast has some eastern European buildings and apartment buildings that could work for some of that but I'd also check out gamecraft miniatures for the Middle Eastern ones.
