Greg,

Your build is coming along very nicely. I like the faded blue on the exterior walls.

Thanks George....I got a bit lazy and figured since it won't be seen I'd make up the trusses from solid material instead of stick building from 2x material.  :)

Hi all.....

A wee bit of progress was made this week.....despite having to do the 8 to 7 routine.

I painted the trim, cut the pieces to length and glued them on. Also, I added a little more dry brushed white to give the walls a more faded look.

Exhibit #1 - (ADL-025)



Exhibit #2 - (ADL-026)


I set the roof on to see how it will look with it in place.

Exhibit #3 - (ADL-029)


Continued.....

The remainder of the photos continue the look of the building from different angles.

Exhibit #4 - (ADL-030)


Exhibit #5 - (ADL-031)


Exhibit #6 - (ADL-032)


That's all for now......

Nice looking building--nice proportions.  I like that inset part, too. Adds interest.

Thanks George.....I agree, the overhang keeps it from being a boring 2 story box and is great for loading trucks in bad weather.  :)
