N Scale Random Shake Shingles

Price: $7.95

These laser-cut simulated Cedar Shake Shingles come one (1) sheet to a package.

If you select the adhesive backing, the strips are permanent self-adhesive - just peel and stick.

Each shake is a slightly different length to model variation of real shake shingles.
With a light painting of alcohol/India ink solution, the shingles take on a nice aged appearance - use a bit more, get more aging - it's up to you.  Check the product photo - half is stained, half is not.

There is also a strip that can be used for a ridge cap.

NOTE:  The package contains a sheet of laser-cut strips of shingles that need to be layered up - just like real shingles. These are not pre-layered sheets.

Shingles are laser-cut from a heavy wood fiber content paper and resemble wood or asphalt shingles very well.

Each package contains one (1) sheet that measures 4" wide by 6" long - approximately 24 square inches of material. With a 50% overlap, the one (1) sheet covers approximately 12 square inches of roofing area.

These Shakes Shingles can also be used for wall coverings to vary your buildings. They can be stained easily, and you can add various tones to simulate rotting or even previously painted shingles.

Updated color chips; we've added some new colors for you to choose from !

If you've ordered a specific color of roofing before, that "color name" has not changed, so you may order it again and expect to receive the same color.
(But please note, there is some slight color variation from packet to packet from the vendor source for this material.)

You may be wondering, "what's the difference between 'Slate Gray' and 'Slate'".
There is just a subtle difference in these colors.  The Slate Gray selection is the color that's been included in our color chart for several years - it's truly a gray color. 
The new Slate color selection has a very subtle hint of green in the gray - a natural slate stone color. 

Be sure to also purchase the D5216 N Scale Ridge Caps and Starter Strips Sheet to start off and finish your shingle installation in the same color as your shingles.
