Finished the primary framing. Will finish the interior drywall and electrical tomorrow.

The shell is made from 3/4" subfloor, and I'm putting drywall over it. Probably overkill, but should make for a very solid, durable frame. Most of the interior will be white drywall, but I have some left over hardwood flooring sample that has a really pretty pattern when stained and coated, I have a sample in place in the top image. Won't be able to do the exterior drywall until I get the electrical and structural inspection done.
