Nice, like that.

Thanks mate - I think it looks better than the stuff they supply for it.

I want to get something similar, but can't really find anything like your's

@Smudge617

To be honest with you mate - take a look at RSLasers General Store and Post Office.

Anyway, don't ell anyone okay, but have gotten half the other side of the roof done

Well done Tony!

Cant wait for the Idaho Hotel build.

@migalyto

Ah huh - I have to get it first - Fifers wont have it in stock till Monday so I expect to have it late next week some time. Have to admit, I am looking forward to the build as well. I don't think it will be as difficult as it might look, just a bit more time consuming I think.

 

[goscrewyourselves]

Well - the build is completed! All I have to do now is fill all the space with bloody advertising!

My "Roofing Goop" - Dark Grey Acrylic, 5 Minute Plaster and a Qty Elmer's White Glue:

The Store:

Chimney by Wombat457 = 1/16th Basswood Strip.

Thought I'd try a "small addition" to the General Store - an attached gargae maybe ...

Thoughts ???

Thoughts ???

It looks really good! Are you going to try and match it so it looks like it was built with the building, or added at a later time?

Not sure - I hadn't given that any thought to be honest; however, I think I would prefer if I could make look as though it was apart of the original building ....

 

[migalyto]

Either way I think it will add to the structure and make it better.

It will make it more of a "custom" than just a Blair Line kit that many people probably have on their layout.

Thanks and that is true ... something a little different

If you can blend it in to look part of the original building, I think it would look great.

That's the plan at the moment

 

[PNKFLOYD]

Really does look like you have this build under control.
It has been fun to watch you progress!

@PNKFLOYD

Thank you, appreciate it a lot

 

[goscrewyourselves]

Darn, the dullcote isn't fully dry

The floor of the garage will most likely be gravel

 

[JeffH]

It looks great, and makes it unique! I love it!
