Wow Tim.......just checked it out. They're pretty reasonable at about $15.00 ea. but the shipping and handling puts it over $25.00.....it's back to my scribe and ruler until I can find a more reasonable option. Thanks for looking out for me Sir!Might find what you want here Rick. It’s on your side of the pond as well….

Hi Andrew, good looking interior job on an otherwise plain Jane kit.....takes it to the top floor! I have done interior detailing in the past on HO scale buildings but never thought about complete interior walls........I will defo be trying this out on my next building project. Rick H.
Hi Andrew
Well I hope you and yours are on the mend. Sounds as if you have got away lightly.
Building is looking good. Not easy - a lot of issues to sort so all credit to you. Daughter is probably right in that some of the bricks could be picked out in different tones - do you have a few hours to spare and a steady hand. Also the mortar maybe. That flagged floor is excellent.

Hi mate, looking good, but I think your daughter is right in that it is a little “flat” in colour. One of the options would be to give the mortar courses colour. Mortar is usually lighter than the bricks so the walls “read” wrongly when you look at them. Easily done by pin washing the grooves with mortar colour. An alternative to painting individual bricks is dry brushing with various colours. Best way to do that is diagonally across the courses. Vertical or horizontal dry brushing gets into the mortar courses…another option for individual bricks is coloured pencils. They are easier to control than a paintbrush…
Looking the business Andrew....
Brick colour looks excellent to me Andrew……the mortar will tie it in even more….
I agree with Tim..... excellent rendition!
Hi Andrew
Glad the struggle with gravity didn't cause damage that couldn't be fixed.
Definitely worth the effort to paint the bricks with a variety of shades.
