G'day All,
Regarding the roofing material discussion. Like a few modellers on 'Big Blue' I don't have any direct access to the type of asphalt sheet(?) roofing that has been discussed. In Australia roofing is usually tiles (mainly on houses), corrugated metal, or one of the various forms of `ribbed' metal sheets with a coloured coating. While the hand colored method seems to be the best, would the following Scalescenes printable sheet be suitable:

Also, what are the common dimensions of the asphalt roofing sheets/strips? They may have been written somewhere but our 43degree Celsius day has got to me.
Regards,
Andrew G.
