A thin coat of black, then grey, then water to blur it all together:
And finally, a day later and a new coat of lighter grey highlights and suddenly it all looks better!

A few coats of paint later....
Progress on my rock wall, using very diluted paints and a spray bottle. Not a method for the faint of heart! Sure, the walls will never be quite the same again, but the eventual backdrop will hide all, right?
A thin coat of black, then grey, then water to blur it all together:
After some drying time I brushed on grimy black on the brightest surfaces, plus deep into cracks and on the undersides of rocks to add some depth. Then I applied a thin coat of light grey, then more black, then a little white and a big water wash... We'll see how this dries. Matching the existing rock may prove to be trouble...
And finally, a day later and a new coat of lighter grey highlights and suddenly it all looks better!
