Shake Ultra Shingles™

Shake Ultra Shingles™

We created some peel-and-stick shingles for our A-Frame Cabin kit

Our shingles look so good because they’re created from actual photographs of shingles. They’re also very easy to apply; you apply a single piece to an entire roof section, then trim it to size using scissors or a hobby knife.

The first time anyone sees a building built with our Ultra Shingles™, they reach over to touch the shingles because they can’t believe they look so good. Try our shingles today and we think you’ll be very pleased with the results.

Ultra Shingles™ applied as a single piece.	Laser cut shingles applied as individual rows. Lots of work!

The Prototype

We stitched together photographs from a large shopping center to create our sheets of shingles. This is a slow and tedious process that produces amazingly realistic shingles.

In fact, everyone's first reaction to seeing these shingles on our finished A-Frame Cabin models is to reach over and touch them. They can't believe how realistic they look. And they're so easy to apply, especially when compared with laser-cut shingles.

Key benefits

Come as 24' x 53' (scale) sheets of peel-and-stick paper.
Simply remove the backing and apply to surface, then use scissors or a sharp hobby knife to trim for an exact fit each time in only minutes.
Looks so real most modelers think they're separately applied rows of shingles that have been carefully painted and weathered.
No weathering needed to produce a very realistic result.

Builders in Scale sells a number of different types of peel-and-stick shingles, as well as metal roofing materials. In fact, we used their shingles above in the comparison shot, but then C.C. Crow (owner of Builders in Scale) suggested using photographs instead. Thanks Clint! They offer both laser-cut paper and wood shingles in scales from N through G.

Paper Creek Model Works has some really nice laser-cut textured shingles, although they don't have an adhesive backing so you need to use white glue. They're available in N through O scales.
