Looking great, Karl!

The oxide red roof looks much better. The green colour didn't quite work with the rest of the structure.  Below is a link to a NZ painting company with information on colours.  As you can see green was in use as early as 1870 on corrugated iron roofs.  I model the early 1930's and limit my corrugated roofs to green, red and silver/ grey.  In Canterbury people used to paint their veranda roof sheets alternatively red and black - Canterbury colours.
