Once the wallpaper Looked disgusting and damaged enough we needed to creat a three dimensional look for rot and vegetation as I have shown earlier on in the asylum pictures. This was acheived by tearing up strips of blue roll erratically and mixing them with a cocktail of paint and PVA to create a paper mache that could be applied directly to the walls. This was incredibly time consuming but the effect was brilliant. Once this had dried we were able to highlight areas of it with different coats of paint this helped break the texture up a bit and gave it a chaotic look. With this done we blended it into it's enviroment more by sponging and flicking paint onto it.

With this covering the walls and dried all that remained was to apply clear gloss varnish and button polish to the areas surrounding and highlight areas of the rot/vegetation to give it a wet and shiny look that was particularly effective.
