What I did for the gray building is us a few old gray bricks here and there.
The rest is bley. I like the way it looks. I am thinking that down the road I
will want to add signage and things and may include graffiti stickers along with
that. I work in book production and have already spoken with a few designers
about my stickers. Also, one of my printers in China is sending me some static
sticker samples so I can see if they are workable with Lego. I am hoping they
are so they don't funk up the bricks.
