Structures - Furniture Factory (part 8)

The interior of the structure is finally complete. Shown in the next photo is the interior lighting hooked up to some temporary power, and the second floor/roof assembly glued into place in the structure. Before I did this, I made sure to mark the speaker hole and the location of the light's wires on the diorama board. Its holes will be drilled later on, but having the structure open made it easy to mark off where they should go.

I went through my scrap boxes to find parts that one might find on the roof of a factory. Some I expanded on with some random parts that looked good, and some came from parts of kits I bought years ago.

Off to the paint shop I went. After several coats of paint, weathering with chalks and dry-brushing, and supergluing the parts to the roof, this is the result. The company is now officially called the "Woods Furniture Co.". The next step is to put some gravel on the roof.

I covered the roof with "gravel", applied with matte medium. The gravel is a combination of several fine ballast materials and scale coal cinders. Also shown in the next photo is the diorama base painted black.
