Custom painted Plasticville Log Cabin?

I weathered mine by lightly airbrushing it with a flat black and then shot it with an overall coat of Tester's Dullcote.

Folks,

I like the structure and dimensions of the Plasticville log cabin, but the high gloss plastic toy look is not for me.

Has anybody every painted one with flat or drab paints, to give it a more realistic look?

Arnold, I know you are having a stroke about now, . . . so best for you not to follow this thread.  :-)

Hardly, Mannyrock. LOL

I like pristine and weathered Plasticville. That is why I'm likely to weather with chalk dust, so it is temporary.

Love this photo.

Don, your scenery and photography is top notch, IMO.

Don, great paint job!  I might try to add a thin line of gray paint between the logs, as the chinking.

Arnold, thanks for the tip.  I've never used chalk, but I will try it.

Weather it or spray it with DullCoat.

I like the log cabin and have a couple.

I would love to get (at a reasonable price - I am "frugal") the Davy Crockett one, with the rifle on the front. I collect Disney Davy Crockett stuff.

OK, I wandered into the little flea market train shop, and rummaged through a box, and found the log cabin, but I had to pay $8.00 for it. 

They didn't have the fence though.  I woulda liked to have had that.
