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?:

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 :-D

Good luck! 8)

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 ?

Apparently you can coat models in plaster etc then use a brick effect roller to leave a detailed brick effect.

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.

It might just work?

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.
