These walls were altered from the original design to create a canyon-look. This gives a nature camouflage from enemies without compromising the integrity of the wall structure.
How we do it:
Since these K-Walls are made of tightly-packed rigid foam, they are easily altered and scored by using a metal file, knife or screwdriver. Simply chip away the exterior walls to give the desired effect. The walls are thick to take deep cuts. In fact, the middle indent is the thinnest part of the wall, but roughly 1 inch thick. Then, the next step is painting.
We applied a black primer to each of the walls. The primer is sold at any fine home improvement store. We purchased the convenient spray can prime and applied a thin coat on every side of the K-Walls. After drying, we used acrylic craft paint to dry brush each piece.

You can chip away the exterior to give the rugged canyon look.

COLORS USED Coloring is truly an art form. We used several paint colors to obtain the desired effect. When painting, remember to start with dark colors first and work up to the lighter ones. Creativity is always the highest order. Be the artist and remember to have fun with colors!

For the interior, we used the following paints: -Silver or gold (to cover the metal parts) -Brown oxide* (for rust)
For the top mosaic flooring, we used the paints from the exterior and added the following (depending on your mood and creativity): -Burgundy rose -Wengwood green -Avocado -Dusty Mauve -Liberty blue*
