Cobblestones
Posted by Leddy on Thursday, September 22, 2016 10:16 PM

I am making a diorama with a cobblestone street in Berlin in 1945 from Verlinden. I have primed in light gray. What color do you recommend for a base color ( shade of gray?) and what color for a wash to accent lower areas and for a dry brush to pick out raised detail?

thanks,

Leddy

colors a plenty.  after all, weren't there some 50 shades of grey at least?
