John,

You've put a lot of time and effort into the research. I like the brick color on sample #7. Now, let's get building.

I'm with you on that - I'm actually building - the thread posting is a day or two behind.   [size=78%] [/size][/size]I will be deciding today between sample 7 and 8. The research is actually for some future builds that will use the wood brick material from Monster.  Thanks for stopping by the thread and getting me moving on the building.[size=78%]

John,
I think sample #7 is the best color I have seen.

Yes- that one turned out pretty good. I'm going to complete the posts of the multi colored brownish brick and then get on with this build.

The next color that was added is Terra Cotta.

Followed by Yellow Ochre.

Then the whole sample was dry brushed with Sandstone. I added to much of the sandstone and let it dry before I went over it with a light grey wash.  Next time I would do individual bricks with the sandstone and just use the light grey as a final wash.

Here is a picture of the final sample board. I plan on using the number 8 technique on a future build with the Monster Model Works bricks.  For this build I will be using the technique represent by sample 7.

My first step was to lay out all the pieces that come in the kit and compare it to the pictures and list on page of the directions.
