FOS Scale DelGiorno Fish

[Kimkatkim]

Hi everyone 

This is my newest kit build - my first FOS kit also. I chose this and Hooper's Oysters to compliment my Seafood Emporium diorama. Both kits will share the same pier. This is as far as I can go on this kit until I figure out placement and dimensions for the pier itself. I am also going to use another FOS kit: Genco Olive Oil. I will convert it into some type of marine supporting business. I chose it for the small footprint and the interesting roof line. It lends itself to a seaport-type structure.
I am learning rust! Every time I do corrugated siding/roofing, it turns out different! I like the coloration on this one.
Enjoy!

Kim,
That is a beautiful mess! Very unique finish...can you do a little tutorial of how you get that degree of weathering (or direct me elsewhere). I would love all of my structures to show that degree of wear. Makes me think of some of the really great On30 guys like Troels Kirk's stuff.


Thanks for sharing. Really great!

I like the rust, too.  And the rest of the structure as well.

That is wonderful!      

I have this one, sitting on the floor in my bedroom on top of Emporium Seafood and Execution Rocks.  All waiting to be built.  Someday.

Hey Kim,

   Looks outstanding. The Reds and Greens you chose for this building look great together. I also like your rust you placed on the panels...especially at the front of the building right above the front door.

Well done.

Like those before me - great job! First class weathering - you have the eye.

Kim,
What a great looking build.  The green lower base is realy different.  Did you use DR BENS on everything?  As we talked about the other day you gave it the "Furlow Weathering Touch"! To be honest with you if I can get it touch with Malcolm I will have him look at this build.
Back in the day Malcolm did some "KINKY" weathering however I think this passes him by.  Can not wait to see Hoopers.
