Does anyone know where I can find a roller, or an effective manner of replicating the effect in the following link in my current project?: viewtopic.php?p=334709 See picture of work in progress below. |

I'm not to sure on anything of how to replicate it. The only thing I can think of is plasticard, but I don't suppose you're at that stage to add that :-/ If I do think of something or find something, I will post a reply. It's looking good so far, I'd love to see it completed. Helms Deep is one of my favourite locations in Middle-Earth  Good luck!

I have to confess I don't know what you mean. What effect are you after replicating s I see so many effects in the picture ? |

The brick texture on the model was made with a homemade roller. I may try to make one. I have never worked with Celluclay. Some experimentation will be required. Tom was not able to locate the original article. I am unsure there was a photo. |

A gloss roller might help. B&Q less than 2 pounds. |

Have you thought of sheets of styrene that have a brick pattern? Plastruct or Evergreen plastic have different sized bricks depending on scale. It's a pretty common thing for scale railroads. |
