Pete, the color is Krylon Satin Meringue. I prefer Krylon but for some reason it's been hard to find in my neck of the woods the past few years.
Thanks, Bob and Bill!!

Krylon is much better than Rust-Oleum, which sometimes takes a day to dry. Michaels and Hobby Lobby carry the Krylon.

Frank, Walmart, Lowe's, Home Depot all have Krylon. But I'd say 95% of their stock is Rustoleum. And I just noticed fairly recently the Rustoleum logo on the Testors products I buy a lot of. That might explain a lot. I'm waiting to see which of the candidates say they are going to break up this monopoly.

The porch roof and deck are done.

And the foundation is in progress. Waiting on the roofers. That may take a few shingles.

Very nice. The porch roof contrasts well with the metal roof on the wing.

Thanks, Mike, Rich and Rob!!
I'm trying to stay with the prototype as much as possible. Though the fancy scrollwork on the porch columns have me a little concerned. Anyone have an O scale scroll saw I can borrow?
