Looking a little like that southern chicken maven in that shot. Just needs a white coat and hat 
Well Richard, I took your suggestion since it was a d**m good idea… Took a run down to AC Moore and the first aisle I came to I found these…

And found some colored card stock to fashion some curtains for the place…

The dark one on the right has a striped pattern to it on the reverse side similar to the one on the left only it’s a green/brown stripe
Really looking good there Ken. That will have a bit of character when done.
Looks great!..Except for the hole in the front door window!

Ah well, that’s just the flashing from the mold that I haven’t removed yet…thought the door knob in the middle of the other window was pretty kewl though…
I didn’t notice the door knob!
Was joking, but seriously, nice job!
Just an FYI for anyone that’s interested, the letters and numbers are called “Thickers” and are 3/4" high. They’re also foam and come with a sticky side. They were a grand total of $.69 at the AC Moore craft store in DE…

They come 6 or 7 each of each letter and number. I splurged and bought 2 packs… (plus the Fiskars paper cutter that they’re sittin on)
Holy Crap! I wouldn’t put those two characters in the window!
Nice job, we need to start planning a pharmacy and you are giving a few ideas.
Got the front entry way painted (and the flash removed), repainted the clapboard over it, got some trim work to do, and work on the roof and some other details.
That’s turning out very nice ken. Very reminiscent of many old time buildings.
Looking nice Ken.
Sweet!
Ya’ know them stripes would make a wicked roll out (or fixed) awning out front!
Took this “downtown here” today…guttin out the 3rd floor ( plywood on the windows) … Note the mansard false front behind the arch

Maybe it’s just me, but that is one ugly building. The recessed bay windows are an especially odd design choice.
You’re right, Ray…Mine is much prettier…

I still have the windows to install and some detail in the front windows and a few signs.

The Colonel Sanders look is just to intimidate Rooster.

Printed out some pictures for the interior (thanx Mik), and mounted some card stock on some coroplast for a curtain look.

Still have signs and the chimney to place. Think I still have a few chimneys left.
