Here you go Jim. The base is painted with a base coat of grey primer than hand painted with 8 or so Humbrol enamel colors,mixed and matched ends up being around 20 total colors of bricks.The paint was applied one brick at a time. Mrosko

Hey Chilihead

I like the brick workon this dio. I have only one question. Why one brick at a time? There are easier ways to go blind. Just kidding, the brick work came out great.

That is an amazing set of photos that show how something that is do different in color (the original bricks - blue to red colors) can be brought together with successive weathering.
