The electric service is in.  After taking the first pic, I noticed I hadn't put any lights under the front awning, and hadn't touched up the ends of the joists.  Pic two shows the lights in place.

Thank you, Marty.  Chimney and other roof stack are on.  I built two more sets of stairs for the back, they're not glued on yet, probably will wait until it's in it's permanent place so I don't break them off.  The back is supposed to have a roof that goes all the way from the "rusty" addition to the edge of the wall by the door.  Then you're supposed to build a partial wall up to it.  It's a "back workshop".  There's only one pic of this in the instructions but I think from the pic and the templates you could figure out how to do it.  I left it off because 1) I'm lazy and 2) i don't think it will be seen when it's on the layout.  There's a storage shed that goes in back of the building as well, but I don't know if it will fit when the structure's on the layout.  We'll see soon, as I need to paint some details and the structure is finished.

Oops!  I must apologize to Mr. Grove.  I was getting ready to throw the box out when I noticed a piece of cardstock in the bottom of the box.  I thought it was just the box bottom.  When I took it out, there's a sheet with four color views of the building under it.  Doh!   ::)  The pictures would have been really helpful building the structure.

Jeff,
IMO you have more than done justice to Mr. Grove's kit.  Love the subtle differences in the paint between the clapboard and board and batten sections of the building.

Well done, Jeff. Building came out great...enjoyed your thread.

Thanks, Jerry and Dave.  Here's the lumber shed.  It's made up of cardstock sides with tar paper outer surfaces and roof.

We have pigeons on the roof!  That means, this build is finished.  I'll post some final pics in a separate thread.  Thanks to all who followed and commented.

Jeff,

I've been lurking and not posting. However, the structure is fantastic looking. Very well done doc.
