I agree with George, your building is coming along really well.

Hey Der Folks!

Applied paint, next up is installing the windows and doors, and some light weathering.  I'm planning on doing light weathering in this build, and not a "rustic" run down look>

Her Der Folks!


Windows, Doors installed, and added a wash over the entire kit.  Next up, the roof, and garage door.  This kit is turning out to be a "experimental" build, where I am trying different techniques.

Looking good Steve! Keep the progress pics coming.

Nice job.  You seem to be getting it down.  I don't remember if you did this on your last build but you might want to try some chalk weathering on this structure.  I found that made a big difference in my modeling efforts.  Always remember that if you use a light touch, you can always go back and add more.  This applies to painting and weathering.  Too heavy a touch and it's time to start all over.

Was not happy with my first attempt at doing shingles, so I replaced it with rolled roofing. I did learn what NOT to do when installing shingles lol. Not really happy with how this kit build is turning out so far, but I am learning a lot.

Nice build. I personally liked the shingles best but since it's yours then it's what looks best to you.

I like the shingles better also, I think it was the color that was throwing me off.  These were "pre-printed" from KC's Workshop. I specifically chose this kit has a 2nd build because I wanted to use shingles.  The kit included them, but they need to be painted, also, I have a scratch build in mind for them.  I did learn a lot when working with them, and I'm looking forward to having a go at it again.

Hey Steven:

I see what you mean. I like the rolled roofing better also.

Hey Der Folks!


I started to do some weathering, and added a couple of signs.  Not sure if I am going to add the roof sign yet.  Still need to add some layers of weathering, and work on the back side of structure.

Dang Steven!  That looks great.  You're really way ahead of the curve with this stuff.
