Hello All,
Attached is a pic of an old O-Scale Signal Tower kit (Korber) I purchased and built a couple of years ago. I custom painted it as well as added a few extra details such as the lamp above the front door and the roof gutter downspouts.
Comments and critique are welcome.

Nice job. The weathering is subtle which is appropriate on a building like this.
Looks very nice.

Leon,
Great Job on that kit!
Looks great!
good looking kit
Looks GreaT! I don't know if you have any interior details but one thing you may want to do is add window shades to the top window rows. this will give the appearence of interior details when you may not have any.
I believe it does have window shades. Raised high, which may indicate it does have an interior ?!?
Nice work, Leon !!
Leon....looks awesome! Only thing that stands out to me is the steps....they look like they don't belong. Even if you just paint them gray to look like slate or stone then you have a real winner! Nicely done! Amazing what adding details like downspouts will do to make things look realistic.
Thanks to all the comments and critiques. The tower actually does have window shades, although they are a light shade (pardon the pun) of grey and not that noticable in the pic. I did add a wood floor at the second level using scribed basswood and added some homemade levers. I probably should reshoot this model from a few more angles and post the pics in the near future. Looking back now, I wish I would have added lighting, although if I find another one of these kits, I will definitely do that. I do have an Atlas Signal Tower on my kit shelf that might get the works...haha.
Nice job. The paint looks great.
Joe
