That's EVERY brick painted - next the ironwork and then 50 shades of grey for the stone blocks - then washes to tone it down and tie it all together

All the stone blocks picked out in assorted shades of grey from very dark to light and some blue ones as well.  Looked a mess untill 3 coats of very thinned down medium grey painted over them to tone down and bring them together.

Looking good, no what about the mortar between the bricks and stones?

This is coming together nicely. I like the tip re grey washes as I've a building to work on and it's not our cottage!!!!

First - Francis wins the prize - for spotting that some fool has put the last couple of photos of this model in the Grafskaya string  :'( :'( :'( :-\ :-\ :-\
So the wooden rubbing posts are now painted and dry brushed and fitted to the model.  Before somebody tells me there should be a green line at the waterline of the dock and posts - they will be added when all bits are fitted and the line will be one line not several different levels if I did them before assembly
