The next step was to decide if I wanted to assemble it before painting as per the instructions or to paint the walls and then assemble. I decided to assemble first. I have been doing this on my last few builds and I'm getting very comfortable with it. The first assemble step is to glue the brick inlays to the main walls.

Here is what the walls looked like after the glue dried.

Next step, was to glue on the brick corner pieces to the two main walls.

It was then time to glue the main walls together.

This is where I ended up for the day. I have some brick facia pieces and some internal bracing for the floor on the second story and then main structure will be ready for the grey primer.
