This will unfortunately be a pretty short post because I need some sleep soon. But here goes!
Priming with black AND white spray
For the first time in years I did something new with my priming. I tried the prime 2k technique best explained by Roman at Massive Voodoo. The short version of it is, spray the model with black primer. Let it dry. Spray a little bit with white primer. And then you have something like this:

Black in the nooks and crannies and white on the top surfaces is what I was aiming for.
Painting bricks
- Start with 50/50 Vallejo Terracotta and GW Macharius Solar Orange.
- Mix in some Vallejo Iraqi Sand or similar (like GW Bleached Bone) in the base color and add a highlight or two on the edges of the bricks.
- Wash the bricks with Vallejo Sepia Shade, mostly at the sides where they connect to the ground.
- More layers of wash – GW Gryphonne Sepia this time and add it all over the bricks but try to avoid painting over the highlights.
- Optional: Devlan Mud and Badab Black to give the bricks a more weathered look.
Off topic – Repainted the wood
I wasn‘t happy with the wood and the stone walls so I worked a lot on them to give them a bit more contrast between each other so that they don’t blend into one big grey/brown wall. It‘s not perfect but it’s a lot better than before.
