In case anybody is wondering how I colored the wood: AK Interactive Wash for DAK Vehicles is GREAT!

I built one a couple years ago, you can see it on the left in this photo, but I always felt like it was too big. It would measure 12'x12' in full size, and once you put a figure in there it just seems too big. I like the smaller size of yours, the way you have the ladder running up the middle, and the slanted roof would be much easier to make. I could use the same shingle technique I did on mine, using 500 grit sandpaper to make rows of shingles. It's actually a lot quicker than I thought it would be.
You never did say, where did you get that great metal machine gun?
