These li'l guys, which Doug periodically adds to orders, are wonderful one-day builds.
As you can see from the package pic, this seems to be meant for a corner. I have too many corner structures so I'm going to have that storefront wall face the street. Minir surgery followed.
Going with grey walls and a dusty blue for the accents.
My usual nail holes/inkahol treatment. The change in footprint required a different rear wall. Spliced a couple pieces together...not particularly neat but it won't be seen.
Adding pillars from KC's Workshop to the storefront.
Walls are Country Grey with Khaki Tan sponge-dabbing and off-white dry brushing.
More weathering...
Test-driving some signs. The business and Falstaff signs came with the kit. Wanted a vertically-oriented one for the available space so I found the Stag sign using my Googlizer.
Promising start , nice to see what you do with this mini kit.
Mounted the overhead sign to a piece of styrene and framed it out.
Thanks, Jan. Finished framing the sign.
Next was walls up, storefront installed.
Kit comes with an interior pic. I went with one I found on the interwebs. Used Karl Tape to mount it to a thin sheet of styrene...jimmied a mount for it a bit behind the front window.
Here I've added a shelf above the storefront for the main sign. I see I need another pillar...back to the stash. Also mounted the cornice atop the walls and started installi corbels.
Cornice caps, third pillar, and main sign mounted.
Roof in place, chimbley installed, posing with neighbors.
Roofage.
That build is quite nice.
Thanks, Curt. Quick one-dayers.
