Colours

Thatch roofs

1. Black prime coat
2. Over brush (heavy dry brush) 880
3. Brown ink wash
4. light dry brush 880
5. light dry brush 821


Rendered walls

1. Black prime coat
2. Over brush (heavy dry brush) of white
3. brown ink wash
4. Over brush of 986
5. dry brush white


Timber

1. Black prime coat
2. Over brush (heavy dry brush) 871
3. Brown ink wash
4. dry brush 983
5. lighter dry brush 875
6. even lighter dry brush 825
7. and an even lighter dry brush 874

Weathered grey do it to taste looks good on the roofs but also on the walls to some degree.

1. dry brush 1 part 976 2 parts 870
2. light dry brush 976
3. super light dry brush 986

I usually do a really light dry brush of a buff/off white to pick up the high points for detail as a final step.

Good luck, these are colours that I had and I just recorded what I did to be able to repeat it. There are more colours/steps than probably is needed I’m sure you can skip a few colours or sub in a few colours and probably get an even better result.
