Andrew P Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 That looks neat mate, What area is Mark modelling, as that will have a major bearing on the wall finish. I did like that Grey Stone Paper, and the Red Brick you bought looked pretty neat as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
