Following in the series of sculpting, molding and casting fairy doors, here is a video showing the painting process on a fairy door at Dramamask Evolution. This is the way in which we paint many concrete items here and of course there is of course a vast variety of ways to paint concrete pieces and statuary. This process works for us here and the video is just a demonstration of that process.
Acrylic paints are used in this video, alongside using techniques such as dry-brushing and washes.
