Korber building and continuation of first scene

Weather the building with some Pastel chalks and Dullcote. One thing to consider is to add some depth to your building flat, I have done a few by adding a 1" side wall and roof top giving the building front something to stand on.  As for your wall I'd recommend Pennsy block walls which you can get at scenic express. The walls in my picture were made by a friend of plaster which I chose to give a brown finish and weathered with pastels and chalk. hope this helps

You can glue magnets to the back of the structure. Then screw a thin metal strip to the wall. Velcro may work as well. That way you can remove the flat and work at your bench if you decide to add details or signage. I didn't follow the practice for lack of thought in laying out my track. To close to the wall. You should add some depth to the .structure as Steve mentions. Then your able to add some rooftop details. Lot's of detail items out there. Lights over the loading doors.A lot can be found at www.modeltechstudios.com.  Will turn a simple structure into a highly detailed one.

I used Velcro to attach my building flats as well as full structures. Even my mountain and tunnel is Velcro-ed.[small 9x16 round-the-room layout].

Okay. I think I will try the chalk weathering and try to add some depth.

i have looked the scenic express walls.  that wall is about 5 feet long and 8 inches high.  I think it becomes more than I want to put into the wall.    

buy a casting and make a mould then just use plaster real easy that way

and cheaper

Where does anyone recommend getting the chalK?   I see Doc Obriens at Micro-Mart any other recommendation?

Ok - like everything it is matter of time money and skill.    So this is where the three of those meet for me.  See the pic of my wall still a work in process I like it pretTy well all things considered 

Artist  supply stores - not Michaels, or A C Moore. Need to go to true artist supply store. You should find a great selection of colors. The store I patronize has several sizes. I have found the thin chalks to not be very good. Go for the thicker chalks.

I've never had trouble finding chalks at Michael's.

Neither have I , but I like the ones from my local art supply store better. Why, I don't know.
