Where can I find a good realistic looking brick sheet for my fire station? Im scratch building my own FIre department and Im in need of a few sheets of brick? Anyone help me out?
 
Walthers and Plastruct sell brick sheets. I have used the Plastruct and they were ok. The only thing that I didn't care about Plastruct was when you are attaching several end to end. The edges have to be straightened because there is not crisp edge. The photo is from my power plant that I built using Plastruct sheets.

Walthers appear nicer from the photos. There are several colors from Walthers to choose from. I have attached the following:

I prefer the brick sheets from N Scale Architect. They have them in HO and in O and are the largest sheets available. While they are in white plastic they have several patterns in the way the brick is laid so you can tailor it to the era that the building was built. Walthers carries these as to many large hobby shops.
 
I agree with Matt, the N Scale Architect brick sheets are the best for buildings. They fit together seamlessly and, since they are white, it's easy to paint them in colors to match your prototype. I do like Walthers brick sheets for streets though, since the brick size is closer to typical street bricks.
