NAPM Backdrop Buildings

Magnuson department store.  It has been chopped at an angle for placement against the backdrop.  All of the backdrop building have been configured in that manner, it really enhances their appearance.  I have painted the model to appear as thought it was built from cut limestone blocks with a pinkish sandstone for the window cornices and trim.  I painted the walls with Polyscale Antique White and the trim with aged concrete (this happened to be a pinkish batch of aged concrete).  I like to use Dr. Bens aging solutions, I used very dilute black on all surfaces.  Next I used Dr. Bens pigments ( #1380 Silverton Gold and # 1377 Ocher Russet) to color the limestone.
