Haunted Birdhouse Wood Cut Out

Instructions

1. Birdhouse siding – Basecoat the body of the house with Classic French Gray.  Add Licorice on the chisel edge of the flat brush and paint “siding streaks” to shade each wood plank.  Highlight the siding with the same technique using Wicker White and Classic French Gray.
2. Window and Shutters – Paint the window Moon Yellow.  Shade the window area with Asphaltum.  Using a liner brush loaded with thinned Licorice, paint the window panes.  The shutters are painted Licorice and detail lines of Classic French Gray are added.

5. Roof – Basecoat the roof Violet Pansy.  Paint Licorice and Pure Orange shingles using a flat brush.
6. Pumpkin – Base the pumpkin shape Moon Yellow.  Begin to add Pure Orange to create the pumpkin color.  Shade the sections with Asphaltum and then outline with Licorice.
