Plaster archway painting suggestions help

How do again Kain,

I use woodland scenic pigments for my stuff they do a good concrete one that could come in for yours though the moulding is stone type, or a water based paint of the appropriate colour thinned down would work find the base colour you want it to be and use other shades to enhance it when happy use washes and drybrushing to bring out the details.
In certain areas you could have moss growing out also another addition if you wished would be drainage pipes in odd places if its a long expanse of wall, practice technique on the reverse of a mouldint if you have one spare.

Heres a few vids to show tehcniques that can be used they might not be of walling but the principles are the same

Similar walling to yours though the guy has put a concrete wall atop his walling might be an idea for you having a shortfall in height, behind the wall on top you could have a road ? to add interest.

Here i used a base coat and washes /drybrushing to bring out the rocks.

You know i'm not running off any where so about for a chat if you wish.
