Alrighty. Finally, how about scale? I read somewhere that each story on a multilevel building should be a bit shorter. Is that recommended?
As for windows you can use transparency paper (for overhead projectors), clear plastic that comes in almost all packaging or (I haven't tried this yet) using Krystal Klear apparently you can make widows with it.
Someone else might have more advice about using it.
Spackling compound is cheap. It can serve as stucco.
What Don is suggesting is a good idea. However, that comes already made. Check the artist section at Michaels and look for this:
I have used it, it is a sandy gritty paste.
There is some stuff in the paint section at home depot called spray on wall texture. It is not cheap, it comes in a can like a whipped cream can, and It is designed for texturing repaired areas in textured walls. You could give that a try. It would be insanely expensive to use on a 1:1 scale building, but for modeling purposes the cost will likely not be any more insane than most of our other materials.
Excuse me.. Is that an Uzi?
There used to be a substance one used to add to paint to create "texture" paint. The texture paint craze seems to have passed, though and I don't see it any more (I have some left if I ever need it). It seemed like sand, so maybe just adding a clean sand to paint would work. Or, could you add it to a thin plaster?
