On The Waterfront: Spring Clean Challenge
Roof and Warehouse Sides
For the roof I simply Mod Podged black craft paper on to it. Then cut and glued on thin strips to simulate battening.
I then rattle can sprayed on Chalkboard black paint. A dry brush and rub of dark grey. Then the same with a mix of dark grey and a bit of light grey. Without cleaning the brush, I dabbed into burnt umber and drew vertical streaks onto the roof to simulate wear and rust. With an old toothbrush into white paint and water, I slicked from above paint down onto the roofs to look like seagull poop.
For the outer sides of the buildings I mixed white gesso with tan paint and sand. I then painted that onto the surface. Some washes for grime and a little high light (not shown in photo)
