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!

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.
