Jonathan-
As expected of you, this is excellent. I'm especially pleased at the
burnt-orange building--not an easy color to get enough to build well
with, but you've done a first-rate job! The shape of the townhouse,
moreover, would not be out of place in most old city centers in the
Low Countries. That's a great color for weathered, aged brick and
you use it well.
I love the rest of it, but that's what really struck me. Great job!
all best

| (...) Thanks Lindsay. I am really happy with the firehouse as well. The actual firehouse was built in the late 1800's & has exactly the weathered look you describe. Thanks again for looking and commenting. Best, Jonathan (22 years ago, 15-Oct-02, to lugnet.town)
