Little details continue in wrapping up the Hazleton addition:
I remembered I wanted to include a couple of dumpsters. I'd bought six or eight of these 3d-printed dumpsters a couple of years ago. I'd gotten my money back on these from the seller because there were a variety of cracks in the plastic - I don't know whether was due to heat in storage or some manufacturing defect, but I did find that if I spackled the cracks and painted over the dumpsters, they came out all right. Hit them with a dark gray and then followed up with a primer red over the bases and added a "Nero Waste" sticker on the front of each. Installed them in back of Lucky's and behind the coal dealer near the blue shed. I'll be adding one near the brewery in the next couple of days as I get closer to the front of the addition.
I also applied a coat of flat black and then some rust on the support for the billboard, created a mount for the sign, reinforced the layers of the sign and installed the finished product on the roof of the lower brewery building. I think the scale is much better than the first attempt and it looks about right. The face of the sign was a bottle label that someone had flattened out and scanned. How could I not use it?
