Creating
Authentic Dolls House Exterior Finishes
with Realistic Brick Compound & Stencils
Realistic
Brick Compound is used to create very authentic brick and
stone effects on dolls houses and models. It is quick and
easy to apply using the wide range of stencils available to
produce the chosen brick or stone pattern. The texture and
colour of the compound makes the finished result very realistic
indeed and it feels as real as it looks. Take a look at the
Photo Gallery.
To
apply the compound it is simply mixed with water to form a
smooth easily spreadable paste consistency. This is then applied
directly to the model over the stencil using a pallet knife
or similar. It is an air drying material and allows unlimited
working time (just add more water as necessary or cover to
prevent drying). As the compound dries it will set hard, but
if necessary it can be removed by re-wetting and wiping clean
so theres no need to worry if you make a mistake and
waste is kept to a minimum.
When
completed the finish should be sealed with a clear matt varnish,
this will protect and waterproof it making it permanent, and
it will also enhance the finished colour. If desired, the
finish can be shaded using acrylic paints prior to sealing
to create an even more authentic and unique effect. Full instructions
are suipplied with the product, also there are application
guides on this website.
