Rafael,my dear friend,you are too kind, I do appreciate your support.
Your son is very cute, give him a hug for me.
1- Apllied a mixture of celluclay Mixed with water and Elmores glue to an oatmeal cosistency to wich I addel some acrylic raw umber to tint it.
2- While the Celluclay is still wet I sprinkled some grind up kiddy litter combined with sand over the entire terrain.
3- Placed little pebbles and rocks here and there.
4- For grass I used cat hair.{my cat was not very happy with that} :lol:
5- When dry I brushed acrylic burnt umber over the entire ground work.
6- Using a flat brush, I dry brushed acrylic tan mixed with a little burnt umber over the entire terrain.
7- medium highlight = Acrylic tan dry brushed.
8 - lighter highlights =Tan + white dry brushed.
9 -Extreme highlights = Lighter highlight + more white.
10 - When completely dry I gave the entire terraine a wash of acrylic burnt umber to tie it all together.
Now here comes the fun part:
To give the terraine a dusty appearance, I scraped some raw umber pastel and srinkled it on .
Than I sprinkled some raw sienna pastel, and fo extreme highlights I sprinkeld a mixture of raw sienna pastel +white pastel.
The stones for the Via Appia were individually made out of A+B putty.
I hope this helps.
Ciao,
Roc.
