How to color brick on laser engraved wood?

How have you successfully painted brick on laser cut wood? Those grout lines look extremely small.

This my first wooden laser cut structure, representing a small brick station and I do not want to mess it up beyond all repair. 

There seem to be two major methods:  

1. Paint the whole thing grey grout color, then dry-brush over with red brick color

2. Paint the whole thing brick red, then wipe grey grout color over the whole thing.

A makeover for Cardigan Junction. A new angle inspired by John Cartwright's famous painting

A few weeks ago I decided to give Cardigan Junction on my 1977 era Soo Line railroad a makeover. The project included replacing the 35 year old metal Woodland Scenic trees with Scenic Express Super trees.

Cornhill &Atherton – Mortimer: East of Matrimony Hill

After leaving the tunnel at the summit of Matrimony Hill, the C&A main heads east and passes through Mortimer. This is a small but moderately busy town which services passengers and general freight traffic for a few local industries. Fess Allman is the Station Master and he (like many of those employed by the C&A) is an unusual character. More on Fess and his curious staff at a later date…..

The Bridge to Somewhere....

Let's face it- we all like bridges. I would guess that most of us have at least one on our layouts. 

I am not immune to this phenomenon, as I added a bridge to my layout last night: http://joshuadewolfe.wordpress.com/2014/08/03/the-bridge-to-somewhere/

Flat Irons Revisited

Putting in scenery and completing a scene. What it  looks like in the beginning and how over years comes to completion.

 

built an elevator

Kinda finished this today. Now I need a layout to put it on

I'm not the happiest with the watercolor pencil weathering of the roof. Does look better in person though
