<p>Frank</p> <p>Thanks for the advice, I have been considering detaining the inside and making the roof removable. I also pre -paint all of my parts before assembly. For this one and the roundhouse I decided to go with scale-coat II B&M Maroon for the brick color. I will probably use a white or off white color for the mortar. My method is to paint the whole thing with white acrilic paint, let it sit for 5-10 minutes, then wipe it off the surface of the bricks with a paper towel dampened with ordorless paint thinner. This usually leaves behind the mortar between the bricks and randomly leaves the red paint on the bricks for a weathered look. But i might give your method a try.</p> <p>Andrew</p>
