Walthers ADM Grain Elevator

Just about finished. I used Sophisticated Finishes for the roof. Didn't like the look of it on the sides for rust streaks. Used Bragdon Enterprises Medium Rust on the sides and under windows, doors and ledges. It didn't look right either so I toned it down with alcohol. Going to finish the stairs and railings and place it on new area on the layout. Still have to take the air brish to the base for a dusty-dirty spray.

I'm stuck on the silos right now.  They are definitely a pain.  I'm going to try to get them together tonight, and that should about finish everything but the decals.
I like those rails and other details you've added Chuck.

Just finished the silos on my version, what an absolute pain in the a** to get right.
Thankful of the fact that one end will not be very visible on the layout when installed.

Do Walthers still produce the additional silos or is it a case of getting another kit?
