My BOTW is an H0 scale wood outhouse kit that's not yet done.

You must have had enough of the trials and tribulations of indoor plumbing, huh?

My BOTW are a couple of the Hallmark "Sarah Plain and Tall" houses. I removed as much as of the Christmassy details as possible and painted one a different color. Lot's of neighborhoods and towns have sections where the houses were obviously built by the same builder at the same time (as well as company houses too) so the similarity works for me.

 From my 3 x 4 trolley layout, "Smelter Town." (Where ever you go, there you are). This is a rough re-creation of downtown El Paso in the late 1950's. Yes. It gets hot. Very, very hot in the summer. The tall, red brick facade in the back is still lettered for "Sullivan Meats," ("They're silky") which in turn came off an old John Armstrong switching layout I built back around 1996. In spite of my addiction to Tyco, I still try to do something scale, occasionally.

That façade you painted looks pretty fine Jeff. And that old black water tower next to it seems to set things off real nice.
