Making bricks with a stencil and plaster/idendun mix and painting them
Bricks' solid enough to walk on can be created with a stencil and a plaster/idendun mix.
Plaster 'bricks' can be painted very easily to give them a realistic look. The painting is most easily done with the 'bricks' lying flat, as the paint can be more easily blended. Several layers are required, and a grey or yellow mortar can be added in the gaps between bricks.
