After some stagnation I decided to pick up a kit and build one in stead of just buying kits 

The box.



The contents, lots and lots of windows.


Lasercut brick walls look really good .


Lots of bracing , wood for this is included in the kit.


I believe there are more then 80 windows in this kit , each window consists of 4 pieces, I'm doing them 8-12 per evening.


Brick wall primed and spray painted brick red. Sprayed a bit from the side and it worked , the gray of the primer shows as mortar.

Jan,

Great start! I really like the look of this structure. Glad you are back at it.

Tom

Great start Jan, I have built a few of Rich's HO scale kits and they were all great.

Jan, that is a great idea. I haven't seen that brick spraying technique with grey primer then red over it. It looks really good.

Off to a great start, Will have to try that on the next Brick building I do thanks for the tip.

Looks good Jan. That brick technique is efficient and effective for N scale microscopic grout lines. Nice job on a good looking structure.


John

Thanks Tom, John , Andy, Rich and Bob appreciate it.

I have to add that I sprayed with enough pressure so that it kind of swept over the wall, a bit like dry-brushing with a spray can ( I hope you understand what I'm saying).

Hi Jan:

Looks like you're are off to a good start. Looks good so far. Will be following along.

Karl

Impressive "brick" structure Jan.....I'll be looking in. 

Glad to have you along Karl and Greg, thanks.

Very nice Jan, great tip about the brickwork! I will have to try that on some HO structures.

Here are the photos I worked from. One from 1898 and the other in the late 30's.
I also have it in HO on special order.

Great photos Rich, BTW I love your shingles, Jeff I think was very generous in one of his kits.

Mike 

Thanks Mike and yes Jeff does get that way at times. Forgets how to count I think

Looking good Jan. Have fun with it....


Stay cool and run steam.......
