Thanks guys. I'm not trying to be realistic in scale, although the 1x2 plates
approach sounds interesting. Rather I want a look that conveys the idea of
bricks and mortar. After all, minifigs are not to scale.

Pictures of what I mean. I bet your eyes just glazed over at my earlier
descriptions--what's he talking about?

The idea might best be conveyed with a few simple "brick spots" here and
there, especially on corners and edges...using simple 1x2's with single
plate widths between.  It might look like the building is made of brick and
the paint is wearing off here and there.
