Good day and a Friday at that. I got my shingles in from Walthers and tried my hand at applying them for the first time, They look real but sure take time to apply. I need more practice and I’m sure I will get better at it.
These are some pic of a busisness I am building called Coleman Fuel & Oil Co. I still have a few finishing touches to do befor I am done, but thought I would share what I have so far. What are your opinions on it so far?
The inside of the building is fully decorated although you can’t see much as for the small windows, This is also the first time I have used store bought windows. Mike

Great work. Good detail. Being a scenery guy, I liked the hillside in pics 2 & 3 and the lighting is wonderful. I need to try that some day.

Thanks ART, Some time ago you commented on the rock wall I have along the tracks, If you remember it, Coleman Fuel Co. is situated across the tracks from the rock wall. Mike

Very nice Mike. I too like the lighting and the parking area around the building adds a lot of realism and feel to the site.

Very nice! The only comment I would make is to maybe put a sidewalk in front to hide the slight gap in the center front between the building & parking lot - otherwise great job!
