Artistic Touchup Part 2

Jl was asking for the end result of the pillar that ripple help me paint some time ago. here it is, before and after..
Before: aluminium strips were used at the edges of the pillar to protect the laminate, so that the laminates won't get peeled off or break easily at the corner.
After: the aluminium strips were painted to look exactly like the laminate design of raw cement. now you cannot see the aluminium strips that obviously and this really feels like a big cemented pillar!!

Impressive, this reverse-complexity process. Usually, ppl work from raw cement to a more complex design, like adding wall paper, laminates, paint etc... This one is back to "nature".
