Good things come in narrow packages

Wonderful work..!!
Are you going to use commercial windows or will you also scratchbuild them..??

Where would one find a li'l red wagon..??  I could use one....

P.D.  I did a similar finish on a freight station, and the mortar wash did lighten up the base color...

Gus, I am much too blind....and lazy to scratchbuild windows   Windows are Tichy...I think that Woodland Scenics has a lil' red wagon in one of their figure sets. Wouldn't be too hard to scratch one though......maybe  

Edit...I found WS wagon  (it is in a few different groupings):

Did a little "internet surfing"...found this:

looks like one more side , and completely changes the idea of the overall shape of the building.

Great pic......I went back to the HABS site and found some more  

The building is looking great Steve. I will be following what you do with the washes for the mortar as this is an area that gives me trouble.

John, as you will see, I can't really help you there  


Well, I have applied the mortar wash....not that you could really tell
I got the look I wanted on a small test piece, but on the the larger model, I really had a hard time getting an even look. I applied some ink washes to try and blend things together, but it made the structure too dark for what I originally wanted. Well, I like the over-all look in spite of all that, and If you remember....a large portion of the building is going to be covered up by the dock and awning any way (may help to lighten things up a bit). It took a long time getting it to a place I thought looked ok.........I should probably go back to the embossed cardboard brick sheets I used on Midland Steel



What ya gunna do?  :oops:
