I used plaster for my house, I did cast blocks of it in Lego
made a drawing of the beams , cut away a thin layer of the plaster from between the beams, made a 'trowel' of about 4 mm and filled in the space again , showing a 'rough' structure
Showing the brick of the chimney (which I did in polyester)
was done by scribing brick in plaster, stick some pieces of
very thin lead over it, plastered it as above , pulled away the
lead again.
The house was made +/- 20 years ago after a picture in an old
book and stands/stood?? in the Seine area between Rouan
and Paris
