[@ModelingSteelinHO]

Looks great Anthony. I need to build a building structure to hide a wall. This is the remedy. Thanks Fren.

[@georgiasunbelt]

thanks a lot…glad to be of service 😂😂…appreciate the support

[@Crookedriverandeasternrr]

Looks great Anthony. Love the vines too. And that’s real nice of Mr Ron to send that chimney. ❤

[@georgiasunbelt]

thanks a lot Dave…do have one comment about my vines not to scale 😂😂…Ron’s a good guy 👍🏽

[@SchuylkillRiverValley]

Great job Anthony, it really sells the scene. I think the weathering looks great, but like a true artist, you're never satisfied with your own work. I think the difference in brick and concrete colors are very realistic. At least around here, you often see structures like that.

[@georgiasunbelt]

thanks John…appreciate the compliments and support…I like the brick variation but was surprised it turned out that way

[@davestrains6816]

Looks awesome Anthony. The stories these old buildings could tell. Thanks for sharing. Dave

[@georgiasunbelt]

thanks a lot Dave…yeah, plenty of history lost in those old Mills…

[@doublediamondrailroad5949]

Man that looks great! Windows look good with the broken ones. Staining, Weathering all look great! Well Done! 🎉😊

thanks a lot double D…appreciate the compliment and support

[@DiggerEvans]

That's looking fantastic Anthony. The mill you used as inspiration is great too they did some fancy brickwork back in the day. This will look awesome on your layout my friend when you add the details around it.

[@georgiasunbelt]

thanks a lot Digger…not much room between mill & track to add details but, can do some stuff on the ends…appreciate the compliment and support

[@johnlazar7582]

Looking really amazing Anthony! The difference in the brick color in that center section adds to the realism. The vines look super! Looking forward to seeing it on your layout.

[@georgiasunbelt]

Thanks a bunch John…I do like the brick variation…I was surprised it came out that way…appreciate ya…

[@apmazurka]

Looking Great Anthony. Reminds me of the Hood I grew up in Worcester Mass. Love the different colored center building = Adds contrast. Cant wait to see her Complete.

[@georgiasunbelt]

thanks bro Andy…appreciate ya…

[@PKWModelwerx]

That weathering ain't bad at all. The overall effect is good and that's what matters. Thanks for sharing this HUGE build!

[@georgiasunbelt]

[@trainsontuesday]

Incredible Anthony. I love the inspiration photos and how you have used elements from them. It is going to be quite the focal point on the layout. David.

[@fbrailroad4628]

Looking good, Anthony. Maybe an abandoned parking lot to the left side. You know, all kinds of grasses growing up through the cracks in the parking lot.

[@georgiasunbelt]

thanks Dave….l like the parking lot idea…appreciate it…

The building is coming along nicely !!!!

thanks Mark…appreciate it…

[@RonMontagueSWRR]

Looks great Anthony, thanks for the update. The different shades of red is prototypical. Pictures always help too. There's a lot of old warehouses here in Philadelphia and I usually get ideas from them also.

[@georgiasunbelt]

thanks a lot Ron…the smoke stack really helped with this project…I like the brick variation…suprised it came out like that…appreciate the compliments and support

Nice work, that’s turning out great. Details really make a structure pop.

[@dbtech7914]

Really nice job Anthony. I agree, different sections of buildings fade differently. Looks realistic to me.

@@charlie1872 thanks Charlie

[@ralphgreenwood5857]

That's fantastic Anthony!! Is the part with the stack supposed to be the steam plant/powerhouse? The difference in the brick is realistic, I think. Bricks from different areas were used, then masonry work was done to different places at different times. Like the greenery on the sides! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 👍😊

[@georgiasunbelt]

thanks Ralph…yep, that center section is the power house…appreciate ya….

thanks a lot Lee

[@AlleghenyNorthern]

the different color brick is actually pretty realistic. big complexes like that are rarely built all at once and usually represent years of additions and modifications and infill structures. it's impossible to match finishes - especially those that have been out in the elements. those different color bricks add more of a story to the structure and it looks really cool.

[@georgiasunbelt]

You’re so right…thanks for the compliment and support

[@JosephMusgrove]

I can see where the original structure inspired you. Looking good Anthony!

[@georgiasunbelt]

thanks Joseph…structures like that litter the south…

[@luvindemtrains]

Anthony you have really taken things to the next level with this structure and it really is making a nice statement on your layout. I like the direction you are going with the vines. Maybe consider giving them a bit of a haircut with some small scissors. This will provide a little more variation as well as provide a more scale appearance.

[@georgiasunbelt]

thanks a lot Dave…I’ll consider the trimming job…have some other pics of heavily overgrown structures; unless you mean the scale of the vines themselves…not much I can do about that…appreciate the compliments and support
