Yes, i agree. I have spoiled a few modes with the " i will just give it a little more weathering" approach and regretted it afterwards.

Yes it will have the roof done and then left as is.

Worked out well.
Was the original roof felted?

I dont think they used felt back in the late 1800s, my vague memory remembers it cover in pitch/tar i think.

Roof covered in grey, will blacken it later when dry.
