I'm going nuttier! I've been trying to find embossed or similar sheet material for brick walls and concrete block walls. I've tried all sorts of searches (including in Walthers online catalogue) and I'm not finding what I'm looking for.
HELP!
Thanks
I know how you feel, because I went through this a couple of years ago. The best I could find are some that don't turn up through internet searches: John Rendall Scale Models, sold only by JV Models, P.O.Box 700, Artesia, California 90702.
The J.R. products come in N, HO, and O scales as follows:
N Scale -- Brick wall material (Red)HO Scale -- Brick wall material (Red or Brown)O Scale -- Brick wall material (Red or Brown)
Send $2 for product catalog and price list.
N scale catalog part #8200HO scale catalog part #8400O scale catalog part #8600
JV Models has a web site, but they don't show the John Rendall brick sheets.

Their brick sheets are prepared by passing the sheet through a printer multiple times that deposits a special thick ink layer upon layer until the pattern becomes 3 dimensional.
Hope this helps.

It takes an iron man to play with a toy iron horse.
I haven't seen the Micro-Mark brick sheets, but they look like they may be the John Rendall sheets from JV Models, repackaged and marked up.
Micro-Mark does have a much wider variety of patterns and colors than JV models, and their sheets are larger than JV's.
Did you try Walthers advanced search? I just found six of them, using brick sheets in scracth building supplies. mh
Evidently the key word to add is "sheets" Pikestuff and Pastruct do various sheest among others. Still haven't really found what I'm after.
Someoene kindly told me the US brick and block sizes in a recent thread - I'll have to find that... maybe make up my own master for what I want...
Thanks all
Concrete block is pretty much the same size, but bricks vary.in size depending on era and use.

If you search both Faller and Plastruct offer a variety of embossed sheets. Faller has long paper sheets pre colored and Plastruct has both molded plastic in various sizes and types and embossed glossy pre colored paper. Hope that helps. J.R.

They have a bunch of sheets in a lot of scales. One of Walthers vendors was selling these to Walthers for re-sale to dealers/customers but I cannot remember which one it was. Good luck.
