The main building is done with corrugated steel without rust but some aging and the side building is covered with cinder blocks. The roof is still undecided. It might be the same kind of tar paper I used yesterday.
@PEIR, The downloaded images are printed in 200g paper (80g is standard copy machine paper, I assume you use another system to measure paper on the other side of the big pond). I stabilized the structure with a lot of wood sticks and thick card board yesterday but the overall structure was constantly out of alignment. I discovered in the internet that a lot of card board structures are build around a hard kernel. I used 3mm pressboard for the kernel. It can be cut with a knife like styrene of a similarl thickness. Card board (skin) and pressboard (bones) are easy to glue together with universal glue and sticks. No white glue etc. on the skin. It would warp from the moisture but the kernel of press board is glued with white glue.
