I'll have to make quite a few outhouses more, since the poor passengers on Teal's Cove Station have nowhere to do their business... and the guy's at Olson's Wool... and...
Nice little outhouse. It has a better paint job then the one on our place out in Montana. I am afraid to use it though. It is pretty rickety and I am afraid I might fall into the pit .
Another little house, with a swedish inspired roof this time (I've seen plenty with this roof style in my Maine reference files). Less neglected than the last, but still needs that coat of white after a hard winter so close to the coast. When we lived on the west coast of Norway, you could literaly see the paint dissapearing in the big winter storms. I'll build a porch by the door when it get's installed on the layout, and make an outhouse too Larry!
My house has the same style. When someone is trying to find my house, I refer it as the house with the barn roof. The ones that are told its a gambrel never found us. [:-spin]
that's right, it's also called a Mansard roof here but Mansard's don't usually have gable walls.
I think it looks nice and typical in my mind as a New England type of seafront building (i'm think Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds). I'm looking forward to the scene around it
Built a waterfront HO layout in Ireland http://www.railroad-line.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=22161 but now making a start in On30 in Australia http://www.railroad-line.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=52273
I will be watching the placement of this building on the layout to make sure the curtain blowing out the window is actually fallowing the prevailing wind.
