The siding.

The following studio shed is about to get some siding:

We've chosen James Hardie board as our siding for the studio as it matches the same siding as our house.  The siding on the house is actually wood but the Hardie board has the same exterior 'pattern' as our house: vertical boards.

Here we go:

Hardie board was actually pretty hard to work with:  difficult to cut, to fasten, very heavy, etc.  hopefully the quality is worth it in the end and it lasts forever!

Installing siding sucks.  We should have rented a nailer but opted to do it all by hand.  Let the injuries begin:

But we got through it and progress was made:


At the end of the day it looks pretty good.  Next up will be to caulk all the seams and windows - then add the final trim and PAINT!
