Natural textured bases pt.3

Its paint time! :)

Its still very basic, but the idea is to literally drown the base with a dark brown color. This has to be done because the materials used are very porous, and we dont want any sand color showing through. Non painted areas will be base coated with green for still water effect :)

This piece here is a test piece for some home made dark brown wash. For now it looks like it works good :) (and this same wash will be used later on ofcourse :)

And if anyone wondered how my desk looks like, here it is in all its glory :)

Once the paint was dry, the base is progressively highlighted toward bleached bone, using sable brown, honey brown, moon yellow and finally bleached bone (of vallejo variety. The rest of the paints are mu sturdy Americana)

And to soften everything up I added liberal amounts of my home-made wash :)
