Thank you Martyn. OC. -
Have I over done the weathering? OC.
-
Seen the main guy on tv buying restoring and selling the real versions - Wayne Carini (Chasing Classic Cars) Looking forward to following this build. OC.
-
Thank you kindly Alan. OC.
-
I just want to add - that I think the porch will have more impact and blend in when I start to do more scenery and weather some of the buildings a bit more to blend it all together (I am quietly proud of the porch as it was made competley from scrap material with no plans - just bits of wood - card and paper). OC.
-
Superb in every way. OC.
-
Evening all, I am calling the porch build done - I tried to do some moss lichen type thing but the sprinkles I have are to clumpy and didn't look right so I left it alone with just a wee bit of dry brush dusting, the figures are not fixed just there for scale. OC.

Thank you kindly Ken. OC.

Thanks Ken. OC.

If I can help in anyway pleased to do so. OC.

Thank you kindly Alan, going to try a wee bit of lichen on this one with PVA and my grass sprinkles. OC.
-
Evening all, Black roof done and the first bit of washes with the dusting of dry brushing still to do. OC.
-
Im in Alan, these do look interesting. OC.
-
I have also been measuring and cutting out a piece of ground works - in the shape of a small section of cobbled stone path, its only small no more than Four feet wide (In scale size) Im making it from my MDF type wood, the idea is that I will mark the cobbles then scribe them using my knife, then paint and weather them as required. OC.

Are the Carlings sloted or just but fitted Tim? as I was wondering if you could just cut them back and re place them. OC.

Superb job alll round, I have seen this frame in the flesh when she was in RN use. OC.
-
Evening all, - Pictures - base down - White applied and Black band and gate. Sorry about the pic quality - light and hand shake)))) OC.
-
Tim are you saying that the Two rectangular cut outs (indicated by the Two Large Arrows) should be moved inwards to line up with larger cut out further forward in yoy picture? OC.
-
Amazing work - so hard to find out the 100% facts as proof is burried - but damn good attempt is all we can do (like my own build) OC.
-
Evening all, a bit more progress on the porch, I put a few coats of White on it - inside and out, and I have also made the stone base for it thats also been painted and weathered, the base was then glued in place on my dio. Next stage will be to paint the Black bottom same width as on the farmhouse, then the Grey on the slate tiles followed by some weathering. No pics as my batt was dead but will take some later. OC.
-
Some of the scenery I need to tackle - stone paths - a wall and a sloping grass that I estimate will go from zero to about Four Feet at the edge of my dio. Some head scratching me thinks. Oh also the porch has been taken down in these modern pics of the net - even the original door has been bricked up and moved to the side. OC.
-
Excellent painting - weathering Greg - they are not the easiest to get right - you have done a really good job mate. OC.
