Clay, when you apply the wash is that done with a brush or an airbrush? Looks perfect.

Some of you may not be fishermen, but I can tell yer waiting for this next episode with baited breath.  I took a pfoto of the door in all of it's naked cardboard parts and then proceeded to detail it. Took this finish photo and then took the camera in to load it into the PC. Raw cardboard foto was WAY out of focus, but trust me, it's all cardboard except for the glass panes/shards..   |

The wood grain looks pretty good, but shouldn't there be more seperation between the boards ?

The tar paper is a great touch. Looks like you have nailed another one.

This morning I tackled the front piece. I grained the back of the false front 'cause that'll be visible from rear views.  Yesterday, I made a sign for the front, and this morning made some lights. Using some parts box baby moon hubcaps. I stripped a piece of wire as shown.  The foto of the next step didn't turn out, but what I did was cut the wire off at one end of the sleeve, then pulled it halfway thru. This left a hollow at one end that will repesent an empty light socket in the inside of the light and left enough of the sleeve to repesent a small housing on the outside. Simple and effective   Installed. Might have to tone them down a little, but getting close to joining the walls and start on the roofs.  |

Clay, I know you are goiing to replicate water in the ditch behind the building. Have you thought about using a small pump and real running water? You could use a piece of corragated pipe to have a small creek running behind it. Just a thought.

Clay, I gotta tell ya, your attention to detail and aging techniques are way over the top. This is gonna be killer when ya get it finished.
