Using photos on structures

[nachoman]

I would think this would be one of those things that could look okay in photos, but not in person. Maybe for background or temporary buildings I would consider this, but I tend to see texture on buildings that is a wee bit deeper than mortar joints (window sills, door and window recesses, gutters...) Once you start adding all the details that are large enough to create texture, you may as well just build a building the conventional way.
