Hey Gary, I didn't use anything for the mortar -- I tried a section using a mortar wash, but it really made the size of the bricks obvious, so opted not to use any. I used a spray primer for the base coat, touched a few bricks with some lighter and darker reds, gave it an India ink wash, and then used some chalk here and there to finish it off. I think it turned out pretty well. The gray building , on the other hand, didn't turn out like I thought it would. I am hoping that after an India ink wash and touch up with some chalks it will look better. It is hard to get concrete walls to look like the real thing. Experiment and practice time!
