Title: Gatehouse building-update 13/06,nearly there!
Post by: McYellowbelly on May 29, 2022, 01:47:21 PM

Finally started getting paint on it at last!
Hand painting the timbers will probably get put off yo an astounding degree!

Fantastic! I love the discolouration of the daub and the herringbone pattern brick in particular.

Looking very good indeed.

Just out of interest - you appear to be leaving fitting of the window detail until last: is there a particular reason why?

The windows are laser cut MDF, and easier to fit after painting as I want to add leaded glass.
Means less masking etc when painting the building as a whole

The use of leaded glass makes perfect sense 8)

Looks fantastic! Where did you get your MDF windows from? I had started a thread yesterday asking the same thing...
