Tweaked the corner and roof damage a bit.

This is about as far as I plan to go on the roof.

This is pretty much it for the main structure and final layout with the exception of weathering and other small details.

Just a comparison pic with her older sister. :)

Now we can begin on the car. :D

Started on my base. Just playground sand for now. Ruts for the tires, sloping angle; water drainage puddling up in the damaged corner.

I chose a camo tan paint. It works great as I need this one a bit dark. Sorry for the crappy pic.

So, the blue just wasn't doing it for me, so back to the default shinerunner's color: Nasty old black! Plus I started in on my washes and weathering. Made the 1938 Burgess Twin-Six lanterns, one of which will be lit, sitting on a barrel just barely lighting the trunk and its contents.

Progress so far. I think the slow, detailed part is the best part of the build. :)

Your work is so impressive.  Love the detail work on that old crusty house.  Your display cases look really nice.
