I've read Digital Diamonds #2 several times, but I cannot make a mold that is decent. Would any of you guys be will to make one for me? I will gladly pay for materials and shipping and your time if you desire. I thought about making a mold, then casting it in resin, but, if it had worked, I would not be here now.
What do you say?

If you dont mind buying some, verlinden makes excellent bricks for 1/35. Good Luck.

I've seen commercially available individual bricks made of cork. They are very precise, uniform, and expensive if you want to construct a building. Solution is to buy sheet cork of a suitable thickness, slice off brick-width strips, and then chop off brick-sized lengths. Since cork is soft, it can be crumbled to simulate old or damaged bricks. Cork surface already has a suitable texture.

Thanks guys. Actually, I acquired a mold from Kancali. Now I can pour all the bricks I need.
