Bricking it
Bricking it
Or, “My Probably Daft Way to do Brickwork”.
I really wanted my brickwork to look like proper red brick with a pale mortar mix.
Here’s my over-complicated way to do that.
Start with basecoating the brick sections in a Terracotta colour. I’ve used a mix of Bugman’s Glow and Khorne Red to get an earthy red colour.
Mix Wraithbone with water to the consistency of milk. Apply over the brickwork, using the brush to stop too much settling on the bricks themselves.
Once dry, pick out random bricks with Snakebite Leather and Gryph Hound Orange
A drybrush of Lothern Forest in the corners for mildew/algae
A wash of Coelia Greenshade in the deepest corners enrichens the green
Posters and flyers
