Sorry to hear about your wife. Hope she fells better soon. the stairs turned out very nice. Nothing to be ashamed of.

Karl.A · February 9

Love that stair case design, you did a great job on it and the wood colour/texture looks great.

kebmo · February 9

thanks fellas. i'm gonna have to place an order cuz i only had enough 1x10s to side the back wall and right side wall.

This is looking great Kevin. You're moving along quickly. I hope your wife feels better real soon.
A friend of mine got Shingles in spite of being vaccinated with the latest vaccine, but it was probably less severe than it would have been.

Joel · February 9

The stairs look great. Hope your wife has a speedy recovery.

Jerry · February 9

Nice looking stairs Kev.

Sorry to hear about the wife shingles are just terrible when you get them. Hopefully her recover will be a quick one.
Don't forget to get your shot!!

Looking good there I like the gray, older look on the barn and stairs. Understand the few hours a day modeling, I have essential tremors and my routine is a few hours in the morning if lucky. The rest of the day I can brush and stain my wood. Sorry about your wife.

This project is coming along very nice Kevin. One of these days,I will build my Blue Sky kit after I get more scenery done on my layout.

I finished up the fences today, and now it’s time for the cookhouse. question of
the day; what’s a good substitute for Floquil signal red and daylight orange?

geoawelch · February 11

Kevin, I believe there’s a conversion chart from Floquil to Model Master. Otherwise, in the past I’ve been able to go to a paint store and have them color match. The downside is ending up with a huge amount of paint.

admin · February 11

Signal red is essentially a true red and daylight orange would be a bright-ish orange (as compared to a burnt orange). Unless you're trying to match a road color or other have another specific need keep it as simple as possible.

i managed to finish the first set of fence panels over the past few days.

I'll be watching over your shoulders Kevin !! There are a lot of reference builds here on the forum you can 'consult' if needed.. And euh... these kits aren't meant to be 'quick' builds... Just enjoy the ride man.. ( put on some Alabaster music )

robert,
they just posted this video is the past week.

Robert.G · February 14

Thanks Kevin, I am a fan you know that ! The 'cavemen' are back... And no bass player, just like the Doors. The 'Keyman' does it all..

when i asked my son why they didn't include the new stuff he said, we wanted to get the old stuff out first. so hopefully the next vid will be all new stuff.

Easily the best part of kit building. Adding all those fantastic detail. Looking forward to seeing what you do. Certainly can't say you are all thumbs these days.
