Nice choice of colors and your weathering is very good.
I particularly like the roof with the mossy look.

Thank you Rick

I managed to finish the roof and get the freight doors installed this morning. I didnt have time for a picture but I will get one posted later today. That wraps up this structure for now. It goes on the shelf with the Clam and Oyster company while waiting on the permanent spot on the layout.

Next up will be the rowboat shed.

Thank you Eric. It's cool you have done built this kit in the past. Would you be willing to post a couple of pics?

I have actually had this kit since it came out in 2003 (if memory serves me right) and I am just getting around to building it. One thing I have learned about old kits, if they have dry tranafers they don't work so well. Fortunately for me I was looking for a weathered look so it worked out. If I had been going for a newer look, the old dry transfers would not have worked.

I see the pictures now. Very nicely done.

Hello Dale, great job on your structures. I really like the weathering that you have done- looks very natural.

I have finished the rowboat shed for now, it will mow take up shelf space with the Foss Launch co amd the Clam and Oyster co. While I move on to the shipyard.

I think this shipyard will be a fun build

Very nice.
Nice variation on the wood colors and the weathering on the roof is good too.

I'm just getting caught up, Dale. Those are nicely weathered buildings.

Great build and weathering. The ladder gives bracing for a sturdier shed.
