Howdy Rob.  After a third look, I realize the "kick panels" were actually the far side of the stairs showing through. I'll wear my glasses next time.

Thanks Rick.  It's maybe looking pink due to the room lighting.
Anyhow, it will all be painted, and yes by hand.

Thanks Mike.  It's all in the angles I guess.  Thanks for clarifying as I was confused.  ;D

I was doing a couple of days of displaying some of my dioramas at a local model train show this weekend just gone.
So whilst there to fill in my time, in between yapping to people, I took along the JC boathouse structure to paint the roof.  Got it all done, but when I got home I wasn't completely happy with it so spent another 2 hours this morning detailing the paintwork.  Adding panel liner and some more drybrushing to pop the details.
Very happy with it now.
  So here's some final pics of this build of the Lost Delta Boathouse (until it goes on the new layout for final detailing. Still need to add the columns out the front, a couple more external lights and lots of detail junk).

















I scratchbuilt the louvers from styrene

Great job painting and weathering the roof.
The whole build is excellent.
Well done!

Howdy Rob,

The boathouse is simply amazing. The roofing colors are perfect. The blend of textures and materials makes the boathouse look real. The subtle panel lining adds depth and highlights detail well.  

Have fun,

That is one cool looking building.  Great work all around, but especially the roof panels.
