Painting the brick work with a light grey to represent the mortar, and then with a dry brush coat of sandstone colour. A third coat of matt black dry brushed on will be added later to complete the brick work.

Been a while since I did an update to Drabford, here’s a few pictures of work in progress to the warehouse building . Originally it was planned as a flat roofed building, but I wasn’t happy with it. So I decided to add the apex style roof sections to make it more interesting, and give more height to the background.

A little more progress with the low relief warehouse building. The window frames are now completed, and doors added. The left two windows have been bricked up to add a little more detail. Next job is to make a canopy to go over the loading door.

Using the same type of embossed stone plasticard as the station building / goods shed. A new attached warehouse is under construction. Cutting out the plasticard and planning where windows are going and other details..

The skyline of Drabford behind the station area I think needed something more, as the area to the right looks more busy and built up . So I have decided to make a new low relief warehouse building to fill in the sky area.

Does that mean I should post the Chinese take away update on a Saturday evening I'm working on that at the moment. Thanks for the kind comments Shaun.
