We have Nutmeg PGH (very dark chocolate) and like you it was very scary not seeing it - but it turned out amazing. I was nervous with just having the dark chocolate with the grey roof. Anyway, blog link below so have a look through, I have lots of photo's. Our Portico columns are also rendered but will be painted Taubmans Athena. Not sure how this comes out yet as we haven't reached the painting stage, but in some of the photo's the render at the moment looks really white and I have thought about changing it to surfmist, but I'll see how Athena turns out - a light biscuit colour I think! Our colours are: Roof: Colour through shingle tiles Gutters: Woodland Grey (to blend with the roof) Fascia/windows garage: Surfmist Brick: Nutmeg smoothface PGH Mortar: Off white (flush) Good Luck!
