I followed the advice above and it seemed to work great. The first sign I did, I kinda goofed it up, but the second went on ok. I should have sanded it down a bit thinner, and next time I will try to do so. I just used regular white glue smeared on with a Q-tip and pressed into the brick using a sammage bag as directed above. Just make sure you be careful moving your finger from side to side. I tried to ham fist mine in and it tore on me.
I took a bunch of pictures along the way. I take them not necessarily for show and tell stuff, but to help me along the way and after the project is completed to see how I can improve my skills. It’s also nice at night when I’m at work to mull over the images to see what maybe I can do differently. You may wish to take a peek here for a look at some pictures. Boring stuff to anyone but train lovers. Lol They do make it easier when discussing things on the forums as I can readily show someone what I’m talking about.This is only my 4th structure ever to build, so I'm not even out of the crib yet with learning proper techniques. The pictures for this building is at the end of the gallery. Please don't laugh to hard when you see the screwed up results of some of them. Lol
As for the stuff on the green building, I found those items at Valley Model Trains. They have quite a few suppliers on their site. I can’t comment on price comparability as I’m still too new into the hobby to know good prices from bad.
Below are the items and numbers for them. All are under the O scale category.
Roof Vents for industrial buildings: Rix Products 620-610 7.15
Rooftop water tank with stand: Buildings Unlimited 92-37 5.95
Fire Escapes: Tichy Train Group 293-2043 4.95
Fire Plugs for buildings: Berkshire Valley 165-515 4.00
Hope these help.
