i know some guys like to lift a few shingles, but i don't think its really prototypical and if overdone (as it often is) looks a bit cartoonish, so i won't be lifting any (purposely anyway...), but i am going to try to lighten it up a bit by drybrushing some grays on it. i think it came out a bit dark overall.
Well done. Glad you'll be keeping the roof as shown in your photo. Looks very natural to me. I am also in the camp of not lifting shingles. As Robert mentioned a bit of moss would be a nice addition.
