Newport Engine Shed

Here is a link to a photo of Newport shed. Can anyone confirm the construction. It looks like timber walls and corrugated iron roof to me. But I am uncertain how to replicate the look of the timber - specifically which Slater's, Evergreen or Southeastern Finecast sheet in 4mm scale will give the best reproduction?

Any help gratefully received!

Hi Chris

 

I'm not aware that SEFinecast do a plank version - if they do and it IS planked - I'd go with them.  The reason I said 'is' is because the structure looks like 'board & batten' to me - where the board joins were weatherproofed with a batten strip nailed over them.  If this is the case I think 'Evergreen' is your only source.

 

Best of luck
