I painted the walls Apple Barrel territorial beige. Also added the Micro-mark embossed stone work.



then gave the windows and doors a shot of gray primer.

Andy,

The house is looking good. I have some MM embossed brick and mason block paper but haven't use them yet. They do look really good though.

Jim, For me I just use plain clear styrene, I save all the flat packaging before it gets thrown out. that's what I will be up to next.
