I suppose you are going to add one of those cracked paint jobs on those shutters as well?

Guy, stop photographing houses in your neighborhood and posting them.😂😂😂😂😂. I second what Paul says-----never have seen realism like that on a scratchbuilt structure.

Paul-bro, Bert, Ian, Boots-bro, thank you a whole lot for the much too kind words.😊One more folding shutter to build which I'll do tomorrow. I can still play around with where to put which shutter. I can't wait to move on with the aging of them. Maybe I start with a blue overpainted with white

You're too kind guys. I have to admit that the build of this house facade is giving me a lot of workbench fun.

Some brighter southern Italian colours on the shutters I reckon.

Nito, the cat is a go, just not today but surely later.

Thank you Pete! I've been slapping on multiple colours and shades in combination with the hairspray method. Tomorrow I'll fiddle on just a tadd more, the artificial shadows under all the louvres for exampl. I'll airbrush on Tamiya gloss Clear to protect de paint for the washes.  |
