Moving on to the lean-to we assembled it with lots of inside bracing. Squared it up and let cure. We had a big break happen in the front panel, and we suggest bracing so you may handle your model without issue.

We ran a piece of bracing behind the door and that conveniently gave us something to glue to. To further push our monotone we painted the lean-to sandstone like the trim on the main building.

We painted the roll roofing with graphite from a can. This graphite although not paint does give the ultimate in flat black, anyways we picked it up free.We also added the window by placing the glue around the perimeter of the window.

On to the addition section of the building, we braced up as before. Leaving room for the corner blocks, rafters and floor piece.

Assembled and ready for rafters we as always allow everything to cure before moving on. This gives us more freedom to handle the piece. And that is important, there is nothing worse then a catastrophe rearing it's ugly head, only to find you are the one who crushed the piece trying to save things (go ahead, ask me how I know).

Using some stain markers and inkahol we start experimenting with our weathering. Start off slow and build a palette as the build unfolds. Once the bracing is dry you have much more freedom to paint without too much worry of warping.

To add the door to the addition we first distressed the wood with our razor knife. Once happy with our scraping and scratchin we temporarily added a wee bit of hot glue to a stick and attached it to the door. Glue in the door in the desired position.

Roofing the addition went very nicely. The laser cut shingle strip were pretty simple to glue on and they look good too. We weathered the strips by randomly streaking burnt umber and brown acrylics. The details had no flash and look great installed on the roof.
