Looks great! Is that sheet styrene? What did you use to cove the sheet with in order to give the plaster effect?

Thanks for sharing!

looks good I use a lot of plastic sheets for making things, but I'm not sure the CD-RW box is to scale. :-)

Hello All,
this is made in styrene sheet. bricks are bits of Evergreen glued to main structure and stucco is 0.25 mm tick over the bricks except in exposed areas. I soaked all with universal dissolvent that make rougth the plastic, afther this dryes y put a layer of diluted putty.
This a piece suitable for a industrial or railroad diorama: I imagine it whit railroad tracks whit a wagon in it and a group of G.I.patroling with caution
best whises

Your work on buildings have never ceased to amaze me Blockhaus. From the materials used to the architecture they are all simply amazing.
