Hi guys,
I need your help....again.
I'm planning to make a cobblestone street as part of my diorama for the Ardenes campaign. The dio setting will be a T-junction. The horizontal bar of the "T" ( - ) will be the main highway. The vertical bar of the "T" ( | ) will be the cobblestone street which connects to the highway. At the side and corner of the "T" will be buildings, fences and rubble.
My question is, what's the brick pattern for the cobblestone street? By the way, I intend to use a normal rectangular bricks.
Any and advice would help. Thank you.

The answer is that there are many different types of patterns and stones.
Do a google search for "cobblestones" and watch the pictures to get inspired and to gather ideas.
As a funny note, my grandfather was a cobblestonelayer in the days before asphalt.

I agree with TOKE, in doing research for a review I ran across a number of different patterns. Defintely do the google search and also look through the reference dection in the diorama/referenc section of the gallery
