Mike that's a lot of windows! Have fun with the build; I know it'll be great when finished.

Quote from: PRR Modeler on August 28, 2026, 07:00:22 AMYou've done a very good job so far Mike. Is the I beam part of the kit or did you add it for strength?
Curt, the beam was part of the kit.  ~mike

Howdy folks,

Curt, Larry, and Jerry, thanks for your support.

The kit has wooden buildings attached to the stone shed.  Their construction has been my focus lately.  The first photo shows the structure's core—the second shows siding applied, minus trim, doors, and windows.






The instructions recommended stained wood for the siding, but I am not sure I like it. I could paint it a lighter color and peel some paint...

Have fun,
mike

Coming on nicely, Mike.

It looks to be a lovely kit.  Beautiful stonework.

Cheers, Mark.

The walls and coloring look very good.

Mike, you've got some nice varied colors on the siding.
Deciding to stick with what you have or paint it a lighter color would mostly depend on how old you want it to look.

Mike,

That's a great looking kit, I've never seen this one before.
You are doing good work on it. I too, prefer to color the stone after assembly.
