Quote from: Rick on January 11, 2026, 04:41:02 PMTom, the roof color looks like aged copper.
Structure fits perfectly where you have it placed.

Thanks very much for the comment. I appreciate the support.

That is a well aged copper roof.  The building also fits very well into the scene.

Ron,

Thanks very much my friend. I think it will fit just right and will add to the overall scene.

The roof looks amazing.  The flat iron looks great in that location.

Have fun,
mike


Mike, Howdy,

Thank you, I'm very pleased with how the roof came out. The spot is perfect for the flat iron.

Quote from: craftsmankits on January 12, 2026, 02:11:51 PMReally nice build Tom.  A challenging kit for sure, the fit and finishes are top notch.  Not a kit for beginners.  It fits the space you allotted perfectly.  Congrats, Mark


Mark,

I appreciate the comment and you stopping by. It was a challenge, still is, but I'm enjoying the journey. Definitely not a kit for beginners and I would also push it to intermediate models.

Yesterday and today, between coughing spells, I got a little more done on Doc's place.

I added the remaining corbels to the structure.

I sprayed the corbel base sheet the same color as the others. When dry, I glued them in place.




I then painted the large and small corbels with the GN Gray Green.

The corbels were glued in place. I need to touch up the green on a few of the corbels.





Done for today.
