O.K. so this was the real time consuming part. Painting the buildings took forever!! I painted them different colors because thats what I think of when I remember the old San Francisco Victorian homes. I decided to paint the sky to look like a sunset mostly because it flows over to the other side and goes well with the desert scene. You can notice my attempt at the Golden Gate Bridge in the background. Painting the cinder block wall was actually not that hard. I started with a light gray, then dabbed some dark gray around the bottom of each row and in the cracks. I followed that with a little rust color and some green to look like moss or algae. The logo side seemed to plain to me so I decided to tag Marvel on it. I had made molds of small cinder blocks and broke them up for the pieces of the broken wall. Next the power line pole was made from a hobby dowel, just whittled and painted. The actual power lines were from speaker wire with the led's glued to the end and the wires running back to the base for power. Two holes were then drilled on the other side to fit the remaining led's.
