MBZ’s rectory is a sizable structure comprised of stucco and shingle roof, it features stalls for wagons.

Roof section arrived heavily warped which is straightened with triangular sections of cardboard found in the kit.

I was after a representation of aged tinted stucco which was achieved by layers of gouache watercolor. Dirt kicked up from the ground was applied with airbrush.

Parts with rough edges made during the laser process were smoothed over with glue and then painted.

Carriage stalls include open beam detailing plus cobble floor which I plan to allow viewing of after building is set on my layout.

Roof coloration involved much experimentation of layering various colors over a primer coat tinted with brown. Rubbing and dry brush supplemented heavier applications of paint. Roof was top coated using an airbrush of a protective finish of gloss varnish which noticeably popped the color. .

Stucco texture was accentuated by wet and dry brush applied to drying paint. Layers of colors were built up slowly and shading was added with a dark lavender color to suggest shadows around moldings.

Interior of building shows the simple and uncomplicated construction which owes to a less than precision kit with imperfect joints, but that could owe to the look of these buildings settling over time and age which is entirely subjective of course.

All and all an interesting kit but one you need to build without worry of perfection.
