Here is another Plasticville conversion I finished today. It was a lot of fun. Nothing too dramatic, just better than it was when I got it. Moving along on to the next one, a Gun shop.

Zombies and the Post Office (or any government building) just kinda goes together.

Loved it. It is so rewarding to see someone rehabilitating Plasticville buildings. Great
painting as well, subtle but effective. More
please.

Very nice! I've got table full of PV that I use for my trains and 25-28mm skirmish gaming. A gun shop? That one I want to see!

Your attention to the surface of the building is great.

Are you using any special tools---like an airbrush?

The texture of the bricks really makes the work stand out, nice job.

Random DR-

I am using weathering dust. First I use reds, grey and some light brown, and then dull coat it. Then I go back in with some white weathering dust for the mortar, and then dull coat one last time. After that I assemble the windows, etc. The weathering dust is a new thing for me, but I read up on it. There are many ways to get the bricks to look realistic with mortar, but this was the easiest and quickest for me. You learn a lot reading Rail Road Toy train forums. I read up on whole to make cracked glass, but have not taken that plunge yet.

Thank you! and Thanks everyone.

I am almost finished with the gun shop, should be posted in a few hours.
