Love it!
The color of the wood is perfect for period wood for the time period. Not the usual ancient grey color that would appear after a hundred year old building. Sometimes I forget that if I am modeling a newer structure built in 1900 it would not look bleached grey if I was modeling 1900.
Thanks for your nice comments guys!
Any advice how to paint the loading dock?
On the Bar Mills photos I see it quite clear.....but I don't know exactly which color I can use.
By the moment I added some thinned acrilyc paint and an ink wash. If I add pigments, I'm pretty sure that I will lose the details!!
Hey all!
Today's update.
I started to work on the both roof. The roof stencil is fixed and I added some roof trims and upper railing for a better look.
The stencil has a nice colour and looks lovely weathered. Anyway I added some shade between the tiles....
The original is the left one. The right one is after applying the black colour.
I added some washes on the office and the side shed as well.
(Seems I lose a window, so I scratch build this one.....)
Thanks for looking!

That's coming along nicely. Nice job on the roof shingles. Do they come with the kit or are the a different Mfg.?

Hi Karl!
If you are asking for the roof shingles, they are scratch build, less the upper ones on the office that they come with the kit!
I used parts that remained on the Captain Jack's sheet.
Thank you very much for your comment!
PS: What means "Mfg"??? Sorry.....I'm new on those craftsman kits..... :)
Today's update.
I glued the lateral shed and painted her roof as well.
The set isn't glued at the loading dock yet. I must choice the colour of the soil yet!!!
I painted the wooden doors and windows. I was looking for NOT an excessive peeling paintwork....and it looks quite strange not?
As you can see, I decided to change the colour at the green one. I'm not sure if the set looks so much homogeneous now...doubts, doubts, doubts..... :) :) :)
Thanks for looking.
