The parts.

Painted in different grays.

Assembling walls.

Windows and doors in place.

One of the locations where several suburban houses will be trackside.

A little powder and better lighting changes everything.

The next 2 houses will be the same house in different colors. These are the 110 2nd street houses from Republic Locomotive Works.

The parts for 1 house, a lot of parts for such a small building.

The walls for both painted, 1 light gray the other light sea blue, both from Tamiya.

Assembling the walls using a magnetic Jig

Painted the windows and doors and trim.

Walls assembled and floors installed in the interior.

Although the manual talks about peel and stick , the windows and doors don't have that, something that would have been a lot easier then gluing these very small parts.

Assembling shutters.

Installing window frames and shutters.

Finally , all doors , windows and shutters in place.

Rafters for the porch.

The porch assembled and roofed , ready to touch up.

Some photo's of the finished houses at the location on the layout.

This will be the barbershop just behind the row houses.
