since on many buildings like
this, the trim is not a separate
color. My color choice was
light gray.
The sliding doors at the load-
ing end of the warehouse
were made from Evergreen
car siding, material no. 2037,
framed with scale 1" x 6" sty-
rene. I built these with the
car siding taped inside the
building, then removed them
so they could be separately
painted the trim color, (28).
The traditional Associated trim
color was bright red. I mixed
about half and half Floquil SP
Scarlet and SP Daylight Red,
and airbrushed all the door
and window moldings, along
with some scale 1" x 4" styrene
strip to use for trim around
the loading doors. While I was
at it, I masked and painted
the windows and door for the pump house, and the body of the
delivery tank truck (both described below).
The detail parts of the warehouse could now be glued in place,
along with the trim around the loading doors, (29). Visible here
is the cross-wall of 0.060" styrene I made to add some stiffness
to the structure. Some light weathering of the building was
also added at this point.
26: Here is the complete
platform. I may add a plank
like the one shown in
Figure 24.
