Thank you, yes, I thought the tower tops needed a weathered copper top 
and I found this image_map somewhere on the net. The original top was 
just a dull greenish.

By the way, if you google "Gutenbach house" you will find images of the 
model as built by De Espona in high poly version. I used those images 
for my own reconstruction, based on the low poly version I owned. 
Surprisingly, they show some sloppy uv-mapping I would not have expected 
from a professional.
