On mine, the chalk weathering toned them down nicely.

I didn't put a lot of powders on them, guess I can try more. Also working on a brick lot in front of the freight house.


I was thinking this for street markings:


The front track will have lever operated gates and the back tracks will just have crossbucks.

Looks appropriate for the era to me.

Was going to order $30 worth of old brick from Monster Laser, then I just grabbed a $1 piece of styrene brick.

Chris,
Feather this intersection just right, weather the snot out of the bricks, and you will be golden!  Or Reddish . . .

That brick parking area is going to look great,  shame it comes up to the bottom of those basement windows though.  Bit of a water damage situation there.

I'd also recommend brushing some unsanded grout onto that brick lot to really weather it up.

Who manufactures/sells that $1 piece of styrene brick?


Hmm... my factory made
out of cobblestone sheet
doesn't look right...

Two scientists create a teleportation ray, and they try it out on a cricket. They put the cricket on one of the two teleportation pads in the room, and they turn the ray on.
The cricket jumps across the room onto the other pad.

Arrrrgh! It's from China!

This is the same brick that I have been using for buildings (cobblestone walls...I love it!).
No problem whatsoever with the transaction, because China has pretty much figured out how to sell things in the US.
Shipping was fast.

Best wishes, Dave

If you lend someone $20, and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
