The brick work is nothing fancy,just different colour brick paper,first thing i did was seal the areas where the paper was to be attached with wallpaper adhesive (the ready mixed stuff that comes in a tub),while the was drying i cut out my brick paper,then pasted it with the same adhesive,allowed it to soak for a couple of minutes (this stops the paper from bubbling)
then slid it in place,flating it down with a small sponge,making sure the edges are well stuck.
Next job was to make the lintels and cills for the windows and doors,these are made from 1mm card ,cut into strips,painted the matching colour for each building,when dry they where cut to size and glued on with PVA.
I also used a building which was a free download (can't remember which website)this was modified to fit its chosen location.
After this it was time for some clearence testing (playing trains really)
Next thing to think about is windows and doors.
If anyone has any question,please ask away,i'll try my best to answer them.
