Karl,

I agree with Frank, a lighter gray with the blue dry brushing.

Oyster Hill , so I have that building too, even more interesting to follow then.

I like the bottom color, would be something else compared to your normal greens.
I love photo's, don't we all.

Karl,
Have many craft paint colors in the shops here...Folk Art, Delta Ceramcoat, Apple Barrel, Americana, Anita's etc...never heard of Ducan Wedgewood Blue, did google that name...are you using a color stain used in ceramic and pottery making ? Or is this a new brand of craft paints ?
Please let us know...Yes, like that bottom color sample one too !

Hi Tommy:

I believe it is a paint that the ceramic hobby people use. Very difficult to find.

Hi guys:

Well here's a painted wall. It doesn't look like this in person. In person its a nice light blue. This color does not photograph well or something. Its painted a light gray then dry-brushed heavily with wedgewood blue and light blue. Then dry-brushed with gray. Do I need to go back to the drawing board???

Hi All:

As I said doesn't look so good in the photo but I'm kinda happy with the way it looks in person so I'm going with it.

Nice color Karl , you can see the blue when you click on the photo and see it larger.

Thanks appreciate it.

Very cool little structure. That small peaked roof is a cool detail.

I like your top color sample, I always prefer darker tones though.

Karl,

The color looks good to me. It appears to be a very similar color to the TAMIYA Acrylic Light Blue #XF-23.Tamiya paints are easy to get and find. I used it on Jeff Groves Concord Street House.
