Great build, Tom.  I especially like the sign weathering.

Thank you, much appreciated. The billboard sign turned out really well.

Hi Tom,

You are a busy man.  I also like your sinage and especially the billboard.


Steve,

Thank you and yes, I've been busy. At my age I can't let to much grass grow under my feet before it grows over my feet. 8)

Thanks Tom , nice little build and love the stucco.


Jan,

Thank you for the support. As I mentioned to Vince, I plan on doing a short thread on how I did the stucco. Stay tuned.

Good grief.....I just saw this thread yesterday and now it's complete.....are you building at "Greg Speed"?.....well done.  8)


Greg,

Oh no, I hope that speed thing isn't catching. 8)  But then again, it may help move things along in Tahope.

Thank you as well for the compliment.

Nice work Tom.  I will order a burrito and a Diet Pepsi.

;D ;D ;D


Brucie,

Thank you for the kind comment. The great thing about a Diet Pepsi is that it goes with anything you eat. ;D ;D

Tom ;D

Amen.  Couldn't have said it better myself.  About the only thing it doesn't go with is brussels sprouts.  Nothing goes well with those....

Great build Tom!  I've never used Durham's water putty before, but it sure did a nice job as stucco.  Thanks again for all of the pics of the build.  Always helpful.

Yes, I guess there are a few foods that won't work with any type of beverage. ;D ;D

The structure itself came out looking great, walls weathering ect, I must say you have the signage end of the build looking absolutely perfect.
