I did that once and I don’t know about you, but I found it to be a fair amount of work. You did a great job. Mike Country: USA | Posts: 7257 George D Moderator Premium Member Posted - 02/16/2021 :  07:59:46 AM     Karl, I'm interested in learning more about the Plexiglas walls and roof and why you have wood blocks glued inside the walls. George Fly Army Country: USA | Posts: 16811 Ensign Engineer Posted - 02/16/2021 :  08:02:41 AM     Karl, wonderful to see you back at work on this! Greg Country: Canada | Posts: 9058 UKGuy Fireman Posted - 02/16/2021 :  4:18:56 PM         Thanks Mike, I like that it came out pretty subtle, it was fairly easy that way. George the plexi glass is the mold for the plaster brick structure, the wood blocks are for the recesses for the windows and doors in the plaster. Thanks Greg, great to hear from you. Karl.A Country: USA | Posts: 6391 UKGuy Fireman Posted - 02/16/2021 :  4:45:29 PM         George, Karl.A Country: USA | Posts: 6391 robert goslin Fireman Premium Member Posted - 02/16/2021 :  5:50:41 PM     Karl, Thanks for the re-cap photo's. Your wood grain method is so realistic. And interesting way of doing the brick walls. Sure is "solid". did you use plaster or clay ? And I assume you carved in the bricks by hand ? As always, really nice work. Regards Rob My current build. http://railroad-line.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=53468 Country: Australia | Posts: 2822 UKGuy Fireman Posted - 02/16/2021 :  6:08:19 PM         Thanks Rob, I used plaster, I did put a chunk of scrap foam in the middle but it's still about as heavy as a regular house brick. Yes I hand carved it, straight edge and an exacto. Karl.A Country: USA | Posts: 6391 George D Moderator Premium Member Posted - 02/16/2021 :  6:27:51 PM     That's some impressive brick carving and painting, Karl. George Fly Army Country: USA | Posts: 16811 sgtbob Fireman Premium Member Posted - 02/17/2021 :  04:19:00 AM     I'm with George. Well Done !! Bob http://www.railroad-line.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=30102 http://www.railroad-line.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=51837 Country: USA | Posts: 4251 Michael Hohn Fireman Posted - 02/17/2021 :  06:21:05 AM       Excellent brickwork, Karl. Both the carving and the coloration. It has the dry look of old brick.
