Title: Old Barn Building Friscoe Co.
Post by: postalkarl on October 27, 2016, 04:54:49 PM
Hi All:

Saw this one in Friscoe Co. I wasn't going to take pics of the back cause of all the junk behind it. Then I found out what the junk was and that made a big difference. 1920's or 30's Fords.  Would make a great scratch build.
Here's the photos.

Karl,

Great pictures and the barn weathering is fantastic. Looks natural, oh wait, it is! Love the two old cars.

Great pictures. I love old barns.  Especially with all the clutter around them like this one.  Thanks for sharing the pictures.

That's a great scratchbuilding project, just wondering if I'm brave enough?

Karl, great modelling opportunity, however you need to drink 12 cups of coffee before building it. Crooked boards, way too dark colours and holes, rust and etc, just down my alley. Hmm, nah I will let you do it.

Thanks Karl, That build would have to be board on board with a timber frame.
