Brick road chapels made by qualified masons were left in natural brick colour. Chapels made by homegrown masons were plastered to keep it protected against elements. Plaster was left in natural dirty white colour or was painted with use of basic colours — most often white or blue, especially when figure of St. Mary was inside of chapel.
Step 4 — Weathering and finish
Feel free to adjust appearance of the chapel according to your diorama weather conditions. You may cover brick with additional amount of filler to keep it looking like freshy build one. Chapels were taken care of but in most cases could be dusted, dirty, wet or covered with snow or mud from vehicles passing by. If you build spring or summer scenery, think about use of some fresly cut wild flowers put by local believers.
