Andy and Daryl....Thank you both!
 Finished........sort of  I just need to paint the cement footings and paint the edge of the open window. The weather was nice for pictures so let's just pretend that I did those two things.......and call this project Finished!!!  All of the weathering was done by brush, with paint, ink-wash, and chalk.   Looks like a tree is ready to fall in my neighbor's yard.....   I added a long pipe to the back of the Mine.......just thought it would look good    Although I am pleased with how it turned out....I learned that it is much easier to do it right the first time than trying to fix your (or somebody else's) mistakes. Take care

Serious improvement, Steve!
When I first saw the mine, I thought "hey, that isn't bad at all", but since you worked it over, I'd have to throw rocks at the first pics!! Great work!
