The two armed bandit is working along. 1 arm has the airbrush and the other has the hairdryer. This photo was the brush paint attempt the other night when I had all but 10 minutes to work. Gave a nice starting layer to airbrush on top.
Well I think I might be done with the air brush.
There’s a few touch up spots that need some work and the roof needs a new coat of black as I forgot to tape that off.
Hopefully this can all get done tonight and dry well. Then tomorrow I can do some light weathering with a grimy wash and call it done for now.

Craig,
It’s hard to believe I had to basically challenge your manhood a few years ago to join in on this insanity. You are such a great modeler and we don’t get enough of your talent on here. You really are one of the best.
This is looking great. All I wish is that I had taken stock in painters tape. . . I’d be rich.

I don’t have doubts that I can model, I just never think outside the box of projects when I’ve got some stuck in my head.
I’ll say this, my method of siding and roofing with the thin strips might be a pain in the butt to do but it looks great. This might be the swift kick in the butt to do the clapboard siding building of T-D Feeds. I was thinking about doing it with PVC lumber but I don’t have any of that on hand, but I’ve got lots of this thin stuff. I’m sure enough to do one more building.
Yah I should have done the trim first and then painted the rest. Oops. Oh well.

Couldn’t resist mocking up the building outside with the other mockup buildings and half done ones. This is going to be a neat looking scene when it’s done.

Looks great Craig. And after cutting and afixing a billion strips, I have to agree. I am pleased with the results on my project
Despite the 24 hour extension, I’m going to have to call mine done for now. Got thinking about it last night as I don’t want to glue the windows in quite yet until the interior is finished just in case I somehow need access through the windows. I might just start working on the interior next.
Some shelves with random stuff on them, some drop lights, a cash register. Not sure exactly. Probably would be smart to throw in a figure or two.
Or just add this to the list of half done projects.
