When I found Plymout Street some months ago, it inpired me to build one of the red brick structures … guess I needed a break from all these Miami conrete warehouses.
I build this small house using .060" styrene and a self adhesive brick sheet made by Noch. This brick sheet works very well, but is very expensive (9.99 EUR for only 12 x 30 cm) so I will use it only sparsely. I did not paint the structure exactly as the prototype … as I said earlier, I’ll take some liberties.
To do the cracked render on the side wall I used thin cardboard and ripped off some pieces. I tried this method for the first time and I am quite convinced with the result.
