    Spray can mural updated

    I've put in another 8-10 hours on my mural since I posted pics. Here is where I'm at now. I had to take 4 pictures and splice them together. the light rays in the 2nd from left photo threw off my camera, so I had to lighten the midtones quite a bit to get that panel to match the other 3. You can see that that completely washed out the light source, but the color is pretty close other than that. I probably have another 6 hours to go with all the handpainting and the rest of the crabs and stuff I plan on adding. This almost shows the whole 10' wall, but the top and sides are cropped a litlle.

    What are these mojavas I keep hearing so much about?

    Simply brilliant!!


    How did you solve the issue of moisture coming through the cement and making the paint run?

    Re: Spray can mural updated

    Thanks for the nods. I didn't do anything. I waited it out through a few hard rains and it was holding up, so I pressed on. I've been getting plenty of rain here, so it should be fine. It doesn't drip, but some color wipes off if you wash it, so I definately have to use a few coats of clear coat when I finish. The last of it will be hours of detail work, but it will be worth it in the end. I even painted scales on the Angels that have naturally visable scales. I just bought an airbrush, so I might use that to do the detail work. Applying quick dry spraypaint with paint brushes is a tough battle.
