Thanks Bob...
It is Behr paint from the Depot. I color Matched Depot buff in a flat color sample. I then give it a couple thin coats of Grimy Black mixed with alcohol. Then finally I do some boards here, and there with ink wash. This time when it was dry I rubbed it with #0000 steel wool to make it look more worn, an to take some of the paint off the bottom edge of the clapboards.

Loren,


That is some especially realistic worn paint on the walls.

I just follow what George says to do, and his methods are generally tried, and true....

Hey Loren,


Great work as always - good to see you back at it. I finally have gotten to my layout recently and, in the process of moving your Brewery and Crocker Bros. builds around, I am once again reminded of your spectacular talent with colors and weathering...they're just perfect! Keep sharing your work.

Loren,


That's some nice modeling.  I like how everything blends, how subtle the colors are, and how worn it looks without being derelict.
