GETTING IT DONE...I STARTED THIS  ABOUT 6AM YESTERDAY MORNING I HAVE BEEN WORKING ON IT FOR ABOUT 4 HOURS UP TO THIS POINT. STILL HAVE A BUNCH MORE TO DO & I NEED TO GET IT DONE BY TOMORROW NIGHT. I AM GOING IN FOR MINOR HAND SURGERY ON TUESDAY
THE 2 PAINT SWATCHES I SHOWED AT THE OPEN NING OF THIS VID CAN BE FOUND AT LOWES. IT'S THEIR "VALSPAR BRAND" I THINK THAT THE TEXTURE IS GOING TO BE THE RIGHT SIZE FOR MY "N" SCALE STRUCTURES TO BE ADDED TO THE EXISTING WALLS TO CREATE A STUCCO EFFECT. I TOOK A BUNCH OF EACH COLOR.
I AM GOING TO TRY AND POST A FINAL VIDEO OF THE TEAR DOWN..STAY TUNED!!!
ENJOY THE VID...

THANKS FOR WATCHING

Valspar Swatches

Those little Valspar texture paint swatches make a great roofing material in O scale too!  I took home 4 pieces in a grey-brown color a year or so ago (I felt vaguely guilty even taking home that many!),then cut them into 3/4" wide strips (3' in O scale), and tar-papered a porch roof and a smallish lean-to addition to a larger building.
