Weathering will bring out the character of the structure. Rob the shingle work is out standing.

It is now time to glue all the walls together. BTW,the sheer curtains on the second floor are from used anti-static dryer cloths. Bruce Country: USA | Posts: 33284 Glen Haasdyk Fireman Posted - 02/05/2021 :  11:51:20 PM     The dryer sheet sheers are a neat idea, Bruce. Nice work on the shingles Rob. The company house has some great weathering effects, Mike. looking forward to the finish seed house, Steve Country: Canada | Posts: 2517 Glen Haasdyk Fireman Posted - 02/05/2021 :  11:55:03 PM     I finished off my first project for the Challenge: I added the station name and an outhouse from another forgotten kit. I'll be starting my next project shortly. I's another kit, but a type I've never built before Country: Canada | Posts: 2517 Dutchman Administrator Premium Member Posted - 02/06/2021 :  6:00:21 PM     Thanks, Glen. Congrats on finishing project #1. More progress on Kate's Kitchen. It looks like Kate has some hearty food for a cold day. Bruce Country: USA | Posts: 33284 Michael Hohn Fireman Posted - 02/06/2021 :  8:35:09 PM       Your station looks quite nice, Glen. Bruce, fine work on Kate’s. I’ll have a pastie, please. Mike Country: USA | Posts: 7213 Glen Haasdyk Fireman Posted - 02/06/2021 :  11:27:05 PM     Looks good, Bruce. Considering the temperatures coming this week in my area, I'll take the Vegetable soup. Country: Canada | Posts: 2517 robert goslin Fireman Premium Member Posted - 02/07/2021 :  02:51:18 AM     Really great looking front facade Bruce. Window treatment is nice too. Glen, Well done on being the first to finish something. Looks wonderful. And looking forward to you next Challenge. Regards Rob My current build. http://railroad-line.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=53468 Country: Australia | Posts: 2809 robert goslin Fireman Premium Member Posted - 02/07/2021 :  02:53:39 AM     Spent the last couple of days painting and weathering the shingles. Blended several different mixes of mostly greys, with a bit of brown, plus thin black washes, and dry brushing. I'm going for a fairly heavily weathered look as it's a waterfront structure. This shot shows the back half done compared to the front half Some shots taken outside.

I like your before and after picture. George Fly Army Country: USA | Posts: 16785 Michael Hohn Fireman Posted - 02/07/2021 :  09:17:59 AM       Rob, Excellent weathering. Very skillfully done. Your structure is really going to have that worn waterfront look. Mike Country: USA | Posts: 7213 Dutchman Administrator Premium Member Posted - 02/07/2021 :  10:15:44 AM     What George and Mike said, Rob. Nicely done! Bruce Country: USA | Posts: 33284 Glen Haasdyk Fireman Posted - 02/07/2021 :  4:22:04 PM     Great work on the shingles and clapboard weathering Bob. Country: Canada | Posts: 2517 Glen Haasdyk Fireman Posted - 02/07/2021 :  4:24:03 PM     Here's my second project: I've never built a wooden bridge kit. This will either turn out well and be a complete disaster! Country: Canada | Posts: 2517 mikethetrainman Fireman Posted - 02/07/2021 :  5:31:37 PM     Glen congratulations on finishing your first project. Looks like you picked an interesting project for your next. Bruce the front wall of Kate's Kitchen looks great. I'll have the beef stew. Rob the shingles look very good and the weathering is outstanding.
