Hey All....So, as I am finishing up the Brewery, I am entertaining the idea of parting with it. I do not have a layout, and I really do not have room to display it. If anyone out there has any interest in the structure, personal message me, or e-mail me. Otherwise it will probably end up on ebay.
Thanks

Hello all, so I managed to finish up the roof on the "Old Shed". I etched the pieces for the rusted look. Still trying to get the Ngineering gooseneck lights together...
Till next time, Enjoy...

Looks great Loren , I love the very subtle weathered wood , and the roof is fantastic.

I agree with Jan, excellent weathering and maintaining some logic in not over weathering as it really looks like a "lived in" building and not ignored for 200 years..

Also you have re inspired me to take more care in my roofing. We spend so much of our time looking at the roof of the building from the average height of layouts that you would think we would super-detail all of them.  I have a habit of ignoring the roof and seeing what you accomplish is sickening, but inspiring!!!

Darryl,
The first roof I did was with the old Campbells shingles, which for being such a simple product are great, but there had to be a better solution. I also found the pre-printed shingles from wildwest models to look real good without the effort of weathering too much. I have only been building since last feb. and this is only my third project. I hope to increase my skills even more as time goes by. Thanks for the great comment...
