Pick a color, any color...



Ahh, the next big decision. Here's the first stab at color. Actually, this is five different colors. We want to pick something that will go with the metal once it's rusts. The strip of black you are looking at will be the metal, so try to picture a dark rust color there with one of these colors. Granted, cell phone pictures don't have the best image quality, but these will give you a general idea where we are going. I've labeled them A-C (you'll have to click on the pictures to enlarge them & see the letters), so if you have any thoughts, share away! I can tell you that the colors come off a bit cool here. "A" has more yellow in it than shows here, and "C" is not as gray looking in real life.

On the inside, the dry wall is all up & they have most of the corner beading in. Taping & texturing next.

Assume you have held something rusty up to the samples? A seems green. B&C blue. D&E more neutral. Are you looking for contrast or complement? How will weathering change color? Light ones fade?
