44. With the foam in place it was time for dirt. The foam
is easily colored with latex paint (I use cheap, $10/gal.
“off-mixed” paint from places like Home Depot and
Lowe’s), a large brush and a squirt bottle of water to
spray furiously as you rapidly paint the surface. I credit
my buddy Mike Confalone for that method. It’s effective
and fast. While the paint is wet I sprinkle real dirt over
the entire surface. Here, no blending with Sculptamold
was done, although I did sprinkle a little green and got
scolded for it by Mike!
