Palestine Depot WiP

Texas State Railroad Palestine Depot (Inspired) Work In Progress

 

I've decided that since I'm not going to build the station 100% identical to the original, I might as well go the easy route with the detail under the windows.

 

The building is a decagon, with a corresponding decagonal roof. This scares me, so I'm going with an octagonal design.

 

Also, the roof forms a hollow triangle, while the building does not, because it attaches to a gift shop across from the rear entrance. I'm not building the gift shop, mostly because I don't want to have to render that roof.

 

So an octagonal roof... I'm torn between an all plate (exposed studs) angular roof, or a hybrid version of slope bricks and tile covered plates.
