I got more finished on Delwin's today. I only have time to share a few photos though.

I mentioned that I added 55 gallon barrels to both Bud's and Delwin's floating dock. This morning I added a coat of A&I and when dry added a wash of Slimy Grime to the bottom of the barrels.

I used AK Interactive Slimy Grime Light. I mixed the wash to a 70 part thinner to 30 part Grime.







More in a few.

I used the same Slimy Grime wash and added it just above the proposed water line. I plan on the water line being just above the slimy green on the posts.

All docks posts were treated in the same way. I'm only showing the larger of the three docks.




I still need to add the Slimy Grime to the five utility poles.

I really like the Slimy Grime look Darryl used on the side of his Seabiscuits Boatworks.

I decided to give it a try on the sides of the main Boat and net storage building. I used a small wire brush to expose the wood.

I then used the same AK Interactive Slimy Grime Light wash to add the mix to the side walls. I'll add some very light A&I stain tomorrow to finish the walls.

I did a little corner of the front of the structure also. I plan on having some wet nets stored here. I'll add a little grimy slime to the dock around the nets once I get them made.

Thanks for the tip Darryl.

Darryl,

Thank you, much appreciated. Thanks very much for posting the "how to" on your Seabiscuits thread. The slimy green on the sides of the structure really help bring it to life.

Again, thank you.

Tom,

Thanks, much appreciated. Good to see you back on the forum as well. I guess you are now officially retired.

I tried to call but you voice mail box is full so I guess you are retired.
