in HO Scale Builds
I have been working on Quincey in my spare time I am going to rename Quincey at Deer Creek.
It will be a place for new and used sawmill machinery.
Also there will be a Trading Post for any other needs like gloves work boots clothing and refreshments as well.

    Love the worn letters and the variation in the board colors. There is some great individual board contrast but you make it all blend. This will definitely be an interesting build of a structure I haven't seen in a long while. Great start!

    I like the subtle dust gathering on the bottom of the walls.

    Thank's everyone for your time the red walls are done with Pan Pastels if you do not like the color just erase it and try something else.
  • KKarnsKKarns
    Such a great kit and enjoying seeing your take on it Carl. Nice contrast to the main structure.

    Ken.
    That is easy to do I stain the wood just enough to darken it some then a Shelbys trick.
    I use a old sock or a turkish towel and put some reefer white on the towel and blott it on after it is almost dry I take me burnish brush and blend it in.
  • KKarnsKKarns
    Great technique Carl. Looking forward to the next update.

    Excellent progress sir.

    I like your humor.
  • KKarnsKKarns
    Lol...great progress and excellent modeling Carl! Love the signs...
  • SteveFSteveF
    Carl - I love the building in the flat comment. Way to keep things light. The signs really tell a story. I like that you use such unique signs and add the handwritten signs which I haven't really signed modeled but definitely seen win the prototype.

    The roof has great character. Could you share how you created the shingles?
  • adminadmin
    Wonderful. Love the signs, well done.
  • Mike EnglerMike Engler
    You certainly haven't lost your touch my friend!
  • Robert.GRobert.G
    Looks great and almost 'cartoonesque', if you know what I mean and which is good !!
  • JeroenJeroen
    Wonderful. The colours are great. And those signs! Some of them just put a big smile on my face. Absolutely no credit? All those little stories, I love them!

    The shears are from my Moms dress making days but they make a nice cut .
    I hope that this helps.
