Studied and think I’ve got it. Tape for lines, then remove tape to do the vertical wash down strokes.
And, I’m calling the structure done.
I blended the weathering with a big wide paintbrush, then clear coated the whole thing. After I attach the brackets to keep it in place, I’ll add some Sophisticated Finishes iron to various ‘metal’ bits, and let it rust naturally.
Looks great!
You did get someone to help you move it after you cut the hole in the wall to get it out, right?
I hope to get up there someday to visit your layout - name?
That turned out real nice, Bob. It seems even bigger out on the layout.
Lou, you should come up for TrainOps in August! It’s a great time.
I like it and it’s location…
I mentioned to my wife about going because it is the day she leaves for Atlanta for our next Grandchild, and I got “When I wanted to go to Boston, you didn’t want to go!”
So WE will plan a trip there soon, but not right now.
Wow, that does look fantastic… 
on the bench it looked overhelmingly big.
but outside the size looks adequate.
a very fine addition to your empire.

Just tell her you want to go to Littleton…not near as crowded as Boston…

Exactly! Just north of Worcester, not anywhere NEAR Boston!
Nice addition Bob!
WOW!!! That looks great, Bob.
