Begin by laying down base colors for expansive elements like skies, hills, and stone walls. For intricate architectural details such as windows, beams, and decorative elements, use a lighter touch and gradually build up your desired hues. Don't shy away from adding textures to stone and wood.
Colored pencils are highly recommended for capturing intricate stonework and timber frames. Fine-tip markers and watercolor pencils can enhance bold outlines, deep shadows, and blendable backgrounds like skies and water reflections.
Achieve realistic stone textures by layering multiple shades of grey and brown, using small, irregular strokes. For wooden elements, employ parallel lines to mimic grain, varying pressure for depth. Create depth in archways and windows by shading the inner curves darker and leaving the outer edges lighter.
