You can also add color to the mix! All those quaint postcard-esque colorful European houses that tourists clamour to see? That’s limewash babey!!!
And you can apply multiple coats a year if you want the color to be opaque faster :]
By the way, this is the right way to change the color of brick. Paint traps moisture… Bricks are clay… Bricks that can’t dry out when they get wet turn back into mud… Limewash doesn’t trap moisture… Bricks dry out and stay bricky
If you’re an artist please listen to her. PLEASE. 🙏🏾 I cannot stress these tips enough.
this is SUPER helpful, i’m mostly reblogging this just so i can have it to look at because i will admit that i struggle with this- i use basic reference images, and many of those are white people, so i tend to copy white facial features and just give the character darker skin.
thank you so much op, i will use this in the future! ^^
