Thank you as well. I appreciate you taking the time to look in on the build.

I got a little side tracked on this build and have been working on the layout.

I did add the exterior trim along the underside of the roof edges.



I also cut the cupola for the top of the structure. I'll show how it looks but I'm not sure I'm going to use it. It is more for a northeastern building. I can't remember seeing one like this in the south.

What do ya'll think?

I agree.  I think somehow it makes the model look toy like.

Cheers, Mark.

I'm with Curt and Mark, like it better without , looks way oversized to me also.
I love photo's, don't we all.

I vote for no cupola.  IMO it makes the building look less substantial.  FWIW, not sure a smaller cupola is going to be any better.

Just as I figured Curt, looks better without the cupola.

Mark,

I agree, it may look fine on George's build but I just didn't think it fit on my model.

Jan,

I'm with you on this one as well. Makes the building look out of proportion. Certainly not southern.

Jerry,

Thanks for the input. No cupola for sure. A nice chimney and a couple of vent stacks will do just fine.
