Hi All:

Received this kit yesterday and started it on the same day. Did some painting and will post photos sometime today.

Karl

Hi All:

Here's what I have dome so far. Main building walls, windows & etc are painted.

Here's a photo.

Karl

Hi guys:

Walls for the main building are painted weathered and have signs added. Here's a photo.

Karl

No grass grows under your feet, Karl.   :) Looking good so far.

Jeff

Good start Karl, but I thought it would be finished by now ;) ;)

Jim

I'm with Jim, whats taking so long??

Hi Jeff & Jim:

Thanks for the compliments. Got a little more work done this evening. Walls are assembled and the roof is on. I decided to go with a gravel roof instead of rolled roofing. I think I will add scuppers and downspout to the rear wall.

Here's some photos.

Karl

Hi AK:

I'm not sure just don't have enough time I guess. I'll try to work faster. OK.

Karl

Just jokin' with ya Karl, I really like the looks of that building.

Looking great already Karl, and thank you for this " Walls for the main building are painted weathered and have signs added. " , call me stupid but it is the first time I realized it's easier to do the signs when the walls are still flat on the table.

Missed the start of this yesterday and now I see you're almost done.....you've got to stop taking those tranquilizers Karl. it's slowing done your modeling..... ;D ;D ;D 8) 8) 8)

Karl,

Great build, I just added more pictures to my folder. Thanks and what's next?

Tom ;D

Hi AK:

I know and I was just bustin your shoes.

Karl

Hi Jan:

I pretty much finish my walls before I assemble them Just find it easier that way. Thanks for the compliment.

Karl

Hi Greg:

I'll try to take your advice on that and stay off the tranquilizers. There is a ways to go yet.

Karl

Hi tom:

Thanks. Back to the Rollin Saywer build.

Karl

Hi Guys:

SS Ltd Drain Scuppers and downspouts have been added to the rear wall.

Karl

Hi Guys:

the main building is finished. Here's a few photos. The metal casting on the right side of the roof is made up of two separate castings. Rather interesting. Doug does have an imagination.

Karl

Hi Guys:

Opps not quite finished. Need to add two lamps and roof over store front door.

So yesterday I said to myself - great Karl is starting another build thread. And today your done!  Are you running a 24 hour a day operation there.  Looks great - even better when the paint gets dry. ;D  I just don't know how you do such great work so fast.

Hi John:

Thanks for the compliment. It's not done.That's only the main building. It's a whole diorama. I have a ways to go yet.   


This photo is also from Doug's Site.


Karl

Hi John:

Opps wrong photo. These are pics of the kit from Doug's site. So as can be seen I have A lot moe to do.

Karl,
Thinking YOU just placed your name in the Guinness World Records Books under fast HO Craftsman Kit Model Construction !!!   :)

Hi Tom:

Thanks for the wonderful comment. I don't think I'll make the book though.

Karl

Karl,

Another fantastic build. Thanks for sharing the great photos.

Tom ;D

Karl...........

This may fall into a list of superlatives but..........

This is one of your more fun builds.

Thanx
Bob

Hi guys:

Doug really liked the gravel roof. He asked how I did it. I'm also going to post the instructions here.

Put the black paint on fairly thick. Make sure it stays nice and wet. Pour on the dirt and cover roof completely. Turn building and pour off excess onto a paper towel and put it back into the dirt container. It's to expensive to waste. Let dry do not touch.

Here's a photo of the materials.

Karl

Hi Guys:

Ok now the main building is really finished. I think. Added roof over retail entrance, 2 lights on the wall and a sign in the garage door window.  Also had to remove and change the sign where the upper light is

Hi Jan:

Thanks Appreciate it.

Karl

Hi Guys:

Here's how to do the roof.

Paint cardboard, put dirt on. (Do this through A fine strainer. This gives you a much finer looking roof)

Dump excess dirt off roof.

Put excess back in the dirt bag.

Karl

I do the same in N-scale but use chalks that I scrape above the roof, or sometimes much finer sand.

Hi Jan:

Yep in N-Scale you need finer dirt.

Karl

Hi Guys:

Added the additions to the left side and the sidewalk this afternoon and this evening. Have minor touch up and detailing to do tomorrow

I think it took longer to read the thread than it did to build the kit :o :o :o :o

Great job, Karl

Jim

Hi Jim:

Thanks for the compliment. Still a long way to go.

Karl

Karl....great work as usual....would NOT expect any less from you.

Hi Donato:

Thanks appreciate the comment.

Karl

Really great build Karl and so clean too. ;D

Hi Jan:

thanks for the compliment. Got the main building completed with all it details. Also built the spacer building on the right.

Here's photos:
