Bathtub interior
I painted the inner drain of the tub with Testors Aluminum and then added aging washes to the bathtub once the paint was dry. I watered down Terra Cotta acrylic paint by Folk Art and used it to simulate the residue of well water stains. It was a little bright, so I added a wash of dark brown. I wiped most of the pigment away going for subtle staining from years of luxurious baths.
I assembled the tub faucets and painted them Testors Aluminum. I added a light wash of black to bring out the details before installing them in the tub. I decided to add a stopper on a chain, so I drilled out the bottom of the tub to make an open drain.
I added an overflow made from the tip of a pen cap. The stopper is made from a spare piece of plastic sprue (the frame around plastic molded parts) and is currently sitting in the stopper holder. How appropriate. I'll add a chain to it later.
