Hidden bricks
Posted by Leddy on Saturday, October 23, 2010 4:37 AM

I am building a building corner ruin with stucco covering brick.  There are small to medium- sized exposed pockets of brick.  Most of the survace will be stucco.   I have a base in Vallejo buff.  What is the best way to mask these pockets of brick when doing the stucco surface? 

Thanks!

Leddy.

Hans,

Is that the rubber cement used in schools?  How long do you leave it on before you remove it?  What is the best wy to remove it?

Thanks!

I haven't used rubber cement myself, but I would guess you can leave it on as long as you like, then, again just guessing, you could just work a bit of it up and peel it off. Poster tack is what I would use. I use it all the time in landing gear bays.

Latex will probably work.  The model railroad folks have a product call Mountains In Minutes.  See if you can find a bottle.

Spread it on; let it dray; peel it off.
