LOL Gary   quik answer I made each little brick by hand !    but really I made the whole store front out of plaster  then carved out the bricks , its easy to o an fast just remember to do it outside as it makes a big mess , the paint I used was the craft paint thats like$1.00 a bottle , this was my first time doing any thing like this , it turned out great looking , loaned it to a friend so he could take some pics of his model's and I never got it back from him , a few years ago he told me his son broke it in half and he didnt know how to tell me , I told him as long as his son broke it it was ok with me ..lol  .. you cant blame a kid   can you !!  but all is good in the world now
 if anyone cares I could do a " how to " on making a nice looking store front / back drop ?

Man...what a bummer that it was broken. If you're up for it....I think a "How To" on that would be GREAT!
