STEP-BY-STEP OF AN EVENING RENDERING =PART IV=



23. Painting the sides. As the top duct follows a circle, the change should be added to the value of the colors of the sides. The difference apparent at the back of the top duct must be distinguished. The graduation on the sides of the building should be drawn boldly as the depth is blocked. The lines of the grain should be discriminated. Express clearly the contrast on the narrow areas.



24. The sides finished.



25. Drawing the distant view. As the shops are located in the suburbs and the area surrounding the building is car park, there are no buildings in the immediate vicinity. The long distance view will provide the finished picture with depth. Paint it very lightly with dark colors so it merges into the evening scene. The lines nearer the bottom should be emphasized.
26. Adding the illuminations (no 1). As one of the distinguishing characters of the leisure facility is neon illuminations, it is necessary to become involved with the neon chart in addition to the general drawing. Much attention must be paid to the illuminations as failure to do so will destroy the overall effect of the picture. It is possible to mix fluorescent coloring with the paint, but this must not be overdone as it will cause later fading.
27. Adding the illuminations (no 2). Although neon lights flash on and off, in the picture they are drawn as if all are on. The round strip lighting should be drawn on carefully as it stands out in the picture.





28. The top duct and side channel.



29. Adding the illuminations (no 3). It is not necessary to use lighter colors for the neon lighting on the side of the building at night. Having drawn the surrounding pillar ornaments and downlights, the work on the building is finished. The paints used here are: brilliant red (T), pink (T), lumi scarlet (N), cobalt green (N), cerulean blue (N), Prussian blue (N), chrome yellow (N) and white (T).
30. The building is completed. The next step is the detached view.
