    New blog post, I recently revisited some old scratch-built houses with embossed brick paper to make them a bit nicer. This post describes the steps I took in doing this.

    I’m having some trouble finding this on US ebay. What search terms did you use?

    Cheers, I can’t exactly remember, but something like ’embossed brick paper for railway modelling’. I got this from Greece and was the only stuff I could find.

    Huge transformation, and you make it look easy.  Really nice revamp you have there sir!

    Thank you! It was really easy, tbh, just a bit of glue slapped all over the place!

    I was hoping to do something similar, but wanted a firmer understructure, but a material thin enough that I could still cut with a heavy duty hobby knife.  I finally found this a few days ago:

    To minimize the use of PVA or other shrinkable glues, i plan to use spray adhesive with the thin MDF sheets.  The project is still on my to do pile.  However, if the link can help others, go for it.
