More progress today, I'm trying to use Gary's "speed modeling" as an inspiration
Walls are complete, window/door frames in and various degrees of broken glass glazed and in place. I still hate windows. I tried to take the brand new frames and make them old with various colors of paint - started out by scratching them up a bit with sandpaper, then sprayed bombed them primer gray, lightly sprayed them with grimy black, then took an old worn out stiff brush and daubed (dobbed?) some Polly roof brown, and lastly hit it with dullcote. I'm not much of a painter.....did I mention I hate windows???
This kit is actually 2 small cabins that are mated together. I made a mistake and ended up with both doors on the front, makes it kind of hard for the 'shiners to escape when the Revenuers show up
! Don't know if I'll fix it or not....Did I mention I hate doors??
Check out the pics so far, criticism needed and welcomed......
Next up: roofs and porches.......
