Some drain pipes? A few stacked boxes? Vines? Things like that tend to hide the worst building offenses.
You wont believe what I do to hide some really bad matches. One recent building got a rooftop water tank. But they dont see that massive fault line joining two roof sections underneath.
Hi,
I have already painted the walls sections when they were attached to the spurs. I take some paint and try use it to fill itn eh gaps and then go over it again with an ink wash.
Thank you for the information,

Kevin,
I humbly suggest that the next time you are near a large building made of brick or cinderblock that you take a much closer look. You will find vertical seams in the blockwork from the foundation to the roofline. These joints are filled with either mortar or a flexible caulk in an attempt to blend them with the surface of the wall. I have several of these seams on my brick clad home.

Research; it's not just for geeks.
I am hoping that someone can help me out with this. I am in the process of building the magic pan bakery kit and have begun the assmebly of the main building. I joined two of the wall pieces together and allowed them to dry. When I turned them over to see what the outside of he wall would look like, I was ticked off that the joint was so prevelant. I have built one of their modular structures before but the joiners were on the outside, thus hiding the joint. Before I glued them together I cleaned off the angled pieces and when glued together everythgin fits tighlty. I am not happy with the exterior, it looks like the wall is made of two separate pieces and that is not how actual cement block walls are made. I thought about applying some filler, but I am not sure how that would work with the individual looking cement blocks.
Any suggestion would be greatly apprecieated.
