Hahaha!!! Wholey Schmokes! I deserve the Procrastinator Award. I cannot believe that I have not done anything on this model since 2009!
Well, since I'm busy working on my article for RMC I decided I'd also complete some other things that I should get done as well. So I started work on this again. Simply enough I decided to add some tar paper roofing and a simple 1/4 base for the model to sit on. It doesn't look like much to start off with but its better then nothing. The tar paper roof is 600 grit wet/dry sandpaper. I've added some patches to it not seen in these pictures. The sand paper was stuck on the roof with some thin double sided tape. Going to figure out a way to tone it down a bit. Suggestions?

I've since painted the plywood a dirt brown colour. Things to do. Paint windows, add "glass" and scenic around the model base. I'm still deciding whether or not I'm going to light the model. It's still not too late as I can remove the roof from building to add some wires and fixtures to the exterior. Decisions, decisions...
