There are two versions, one with the linework on the roof and garage on and another with it off. The reason for this is that the lifework can often make the colours seem darker than they would be in real life. Also, in reality Surfmist appears a lot lighter in large areas with sunlight on it. I hope this helps. Jenny. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Need hints, tips and inspiration?
