Front eave finishing

As I had done for the dormer window, I finished the eaves of the large front gable with trim wood scored to look like individual boards. This will hide the various gaps and imperfections from the construction problems I ran into while putting on the roof. The side eaves can't be finished until the interior is done, so there will be only front views in my Halloween photos unless I really am able to finish work on the interior in time. 
Not holding my breath on that!
For the dormer eave panels, the scored detailing was lost after painting. To solve that problem for the front eave, I used the awl to score the previous lines again after painting. It helped bring back the board detail. I love the way it looks!
