The original plan was to stretch some watercolour paper to enable me to paint the paper without bending and ensure they would stick down well onto the walls of the set. However, after talking to a technician in the workshop about it, there were a number of issue concerning this idea:
1. I would need 300g heavy duty paper, which was neither in the studio or had I ordered it.
2. Its a time consuming process that I had not yet tried out. Therefore it may not work or would take more time and after last week's time spent on the set boxes, I need to avoid this.
Solution: Creating imagery with not as much water applied.
With the time I had left today, I decided to make the decking. This I applied brown ink roughly as I would with the dry brush effect and then i worked back into them with brown ink lines. Amazingly this was actually very effective. My only issue was that as I had already constructed the box making it difficult to measure and make the decking accurately. This devastatingly means I will probably need to deconstruct the box to secure the backgrounds and then reconstruct it.
Apologies for the bad quality of the images!
Here i tried to add shading with pink and orange inks, however i think it doesn't look quite right and looks like blood. Not cool.
