The only thing you have to watch out for with craft paints, is that they can fill in some of the detail. You can also use gray and black to tone down a color and white to lighten it. Remember that distance is also scaled down. Most buildings colors lighten as you get further away from them. <br />For some variations in brick color on a wall, try altering the base color a bit and use a dry bru***echnique (wipe most of the paint out) lightly brush some areas at random. And guys you might find that your wifes little wedge shaped makeup sponges work well for this too. Just be sure to ask for one, or they can be found in the makeup section and are cheap.
