I have a vacufrom buliding I am wanting to add internal detial to. I figure I can cut some wholes in the wall and add brirk work to it to make it look like chipped off plaster on the walls. Trouble is a need some section of a thin plastic brick. Does anyone make a sheet of vacuform brick in 1/35th?

I know some RR companies do make them, but the scale may be off.
How about just etching a piece of sheet styreen? Just use a plane flat sheet of plastruct and use a hobby blade (back side) or a dental tool and etch out your own bricks.

Do you have half a wall in vacu form? If that is the case why not fill that half with plaster and scribe in the brick detail with a needle. Quite easy to do and looks the part.

I may try that but I have never had much lot it making stuff look real like that.

Faust,
You just beat me to it. Not only can you scribe detail in the backside but it adds a lot of stability.

Scott,
It just takes practice.

to eventually this...




The building, wall and sidewalk are carved sheets of plaster I poured in a shallow cake pan, cut and carved. The road surface is carved dry wall compound.
Give it a whirl.
If you have Q's please feel free to ask.

Where are you in the Great State of Indiana?

@ Scott

It is not that hard... You only need a bit of patience. It helps a lot if you first draw the brick pattern with a pencil on your plaster. This way you can also get an idea where the plaster would chip away
Below you see some pics of a plaster building I made a while ago completely scratchbuilt. The chipped away plaster is made by scribing only

You could also look for Tamiya´s old "brick wall" set, and cut out sections of the brick and place it in the holes. Its about all this set is good for!
Shold be able to pick it cheaply on Ebay, or the likes, as well.

Another solution is cut little bits of plastic and glue them in the hole as you can see here:




hope thta this help you
