Jim - I absolutely love the finish you achieved on the roof panels.     Oh, yeah, the rest looks pretty darn great too!    

[JimMooney]

boxes may have been with kit, send me a message with your email, I made similar ones for our kits I can send you...they are paper painted with Floquil foundation

Roof is the real copper roofs from CC Crow(BIS)..with "patina it" (or something like that from AC moore) applied to make  them green

Hi All:

Finished one peaked end with shingles. Also weather the sign slightly. I dry-brushed the shingle a little more.

Karl,

I liked the first set of wall photos but the ones above are most excellent.

Hi Tom:

They are the same walls. The only difference is I slightly weathered the sign and added the peaked shingled emds.

The weathering looks great.

Karl the sign is perfect.  Old but not ancient!!

Roof is looking good.

Yep - that weathering did the trick.

[Janbouli]

Great Karl , now the sign looks in line with the walls.

Hi John, Jerry, Vince And Janbouli:

Thanks for looking in and relaying your comments and compliments. Working on the other peaked end today.

Karl.

OK Guys:

Need an opinion here. Which one you like best. Let me know OK. Don't worry about the black spot. A casting goes there and it made the mark.

I like the one without the trim.

[PRR Modeler]

I like the one with the trim.

[deemery]

I like the one with the trim.

Me, too.

Looks great and as a twenty five year sider there would definitely be a frieze board installed. So its cool and prototypical.
