Washes But Not Dishes
These pics are a bit subtle I used a green Contrast paint to create a moss or algae type effect on the rooftile where water would run down and accumulate organic material. Also some Contrast on the stonework near the base of the building where slimy green stuff seems to grow in both the Real World and Old World. I have two different AK Lacquer Washes thinned, Track Wash and Fresh Engine Oil Wash. I used the Track Wash on the red walls and the Fresh Engine Wash on the stone work. I used both on the roof. I used a brown Speedpaint on the front door and pieces of dark wood on the rooftop.
I’ve learned the hard way to protect my acrylic paint jobs with matt spray before going to use lacquer and oil washes because the thinner can strip away some paints quite easily. I don’t recommend a gloss coat if you intend to use Dark Tone for example because I find it pools the wash in very unappealing ways.
