Looking nice DocWayne. Interesting little build. Now, did you say $20 for glue??? 
hock:
Steve, sometimes the brush strokes are a good thing! They can be used to help with the weathering as on the concrete slabs under my summer challenge bridge. I'm interested to hear DocWayne's comments, but one technique I have used for lessening the brush strokes is to thin the paint somewhat and use several coats to cover. But really, the only place I have trouble with brush strokes are on large pieces. The brush strokes just aren't that noticable on smaller stuff, especially if it has texture or alot of grooves and such.
