Bakewell station painting progress

On my last blog I had started to add a base coat of Humbrol sand no.63 to the building. However, I felt that it didn't look quite right especially for a station based in the steam age pre 1968 per closure. I had asked my friend Ron from the High Wycombe club to help me out as he is an expert in painting effects. The solution seemed to be to cover the stonework with a light grey colour and then add another dirty wash to the area. The stones were then picked out in contrasting colours including sand 63. The station walls are still a shell but once I am happy with the result, I will finally be adding the doors and windows, then the roof.
I have also added the semi circular columns to the platform side and added some details to the stone butresses.
The photos show the results
