totaly agrre on that... the only thing I´m wondering is.... how could I´ve missed that?

Don't worry Fabian,
There is so much nice work on this website it is really hard to keep up with it all. I have to limit my time here or I would never get anything done in the rest of my endeavors.

Hi Jerry,

There are so many exceptional elements to your work here, I'd be writing all day!

Not knowing exactly where to start, I praise you on all of your models, and I am not being patronizing.

With great admiration, Fred!

Well thankee Fred,
And you are from my favorite state as well! Smokies,Nashville,Graceland,Dollywood,Grand Ol Opry,I could make a very lengthy list of great places down there.
Thanks buddy,for the very generous words,

Smallish update. My eyes were not up to painting figs so I made a small part of the street for under this building. Just a base coat of paint is on so don't pile on me yet.
I also touched up the paint on the building a bit. More to do of course. Found a nice street number plate.
Not too bad for a few huors work.




Still needs some rain gutters and other small details but starting to shape up.

Hi Jerry - nice update. Plenty going on with that little house - I admire your bravery for trying that roof! I know, not the subject of today's post - but, between the pitch and the tiles - quite a handful. Paving is coming right along

I was expecting your next post to be something like scale, operable cigarette lighters for your "other" project! Glad to hear that even you need a break from that level of work (!)

Take it easy -

Nick

Hahaha,
That would be something to pull off wouldn't it? Sort of like some guy pulling out a splinter with tweezers in 1/35.
Hmmmmmm?
I did give a passing thought to lighting though and maybe a shadowbox?

Hi Jerry,

This is looking excellent.

Al

Thanks Al,
It is a nice on going project to keep me busy when my poor old eyes are on the fritz.
J

Small progress. Got the supporting stones under the upright posts.

Looks good Jerry. I like the variation of your roof tiles too. You are in the zone on this one.

Dave

Nice work Jerry.

Al

Dave,Alan and Romain,
Thanks for the words of support buddies! Feeling a bit better today but why push it? I will take a few more days off on the tiny detail work.
J

I for one concur Jerry. Why push it? The little stuff will still be there another day. Rest them eyes.

Sad day here,
Wild Bill from Band of Brothers fame passed away close to here in Philadelphia. 90 years old,Silver Star,two Bronze stars,left behind his right leg and many friends in the Ardennes winter of '44.
Went to meet the Big Jumpmaster in the Sky. RIP brother,
J

Sad news indeed!!
Requiescat In Pace!

Far too many Vets are sadly no longer with us. Thoughts and prayers to his family, friends and fellow vets who will miss him. His service was not in vain.

Can't believe three months have gone by already. I looked at all these buildings today and you can't believe how dusty they are already.
J

Sorry for this bump.
I wanted to check something on this thread and I can't figure out if there is a search engine on this forum or not.
So I had to bump this to keep from always looking back. Sorry again folks,nothing new here.
J

Bump to reference roof moss.
