| Dallas, one thing I learned from our master (Troels) is look at the real thing, do that alot lately and I noticed that Mama Nature has such an amount of greens and various greenish colors it´s almost not to do to model that. Play and fool around with the colors you have, stick with a not to much or many and it´ll look quit natural |

Really like those buildings, really realistic the way you have placed the boards.

Done so far, shingles are on just some ridgecaps and cornerposts. Then it'll be windows time again . Took a few shots to see if I like the green roof, think it will be looking good under the trees with some weathering added and a reddish store in the back..

Green asphalt shingles were very popular in the States. Very nice work Martin. |

Roofs/ridgecaps added, roof closed and slightly weathered, time for a 'pannenbeer' 


Module turned a bit and couldn't resist a streetview picture..

Maybe if the weather gets better I'll take some outside pictures this weekend |

First attempt today to build windows with Marty's sticky stuff, call it that way cause a friend of mine gave me about a square meter of 3M 468MP 200M. Using the thin veneers prepainted, just stick this 3M stuff on the back, cut thin strips and build peel and stick windows on an overhead sheet, door with a thin piece of cardboard inbetween...gosh this makes it easy...no pictures of the proces just of the almost finished thing..

| Marty, you keep pushing the bar upwards...well done. It's an interesting composition with the positioning of the structures, and I really like your finish on the siding. |
