Victorian II nearing completion

I still need some parts in order to finish this, but it’s close enough to tell what it’s going to look like. Left to do is the rest of the roof line, the decorations to flank the top windows, probably something different for the centerpiece section on the second story, and probably some sort of corner post or something on the left side of the second story “base.” And, of course, putting in the correct color parts for the few “filler” pieces that I’ve used.

I’ve included pictures of a couple of different ideas I had on the roof line. It started out looking a lot like Victorian I, with those corner pieces giving a heavy, notched look to the edge and concealing the color of the roof slopes. The “dotted line” just under the eaves was also notched. I tried a couple of ideas on that and ended up with a smooth angle by mounting the clips on a plate and mounting the plate with technic bricks and pins. All very smooth now :-)
