Windows... Not On the Net...

OK. The first step is to outline the windows with clay...

Then you wrap it to the inside and cut it off even with the edge of the window.

You want the inside smooth, just in case you want to put wooden frames on the inside.
Then you use a credit card or stylus to draw the rocks.

Notice that I left the edges of the torn clay as is.  That gives the rocks a more natural look.
After you get the windows surrounded and the rocks drawn, you use a tooth brush or other heavy bristled brush to texture the rocks.  You can also use the stylus to put in details.

The one sticking out on the right was with a tooth brush.

The one next to the bottom on the right was with a stylus...
I drew some lines on the side of the wall to give me some idea where I was going to continue the rocks. 

Maybe by tomorrow, I will have all of the rocks in place.  Fingers crossed... Although it's difficult to work with them in that position...

Back to the rock pile...

See you tomorrow.
