Outremont Station, Blue Line, Construction
Outremont station is currently under construction, they are installing an elevator so disabled people can get onto the metro system. The station itself is a concrete, bunker-like shape with two entrances. One was blocked off completely, the other accessible behind the corridor of construction. The main feature is a circular, angled glass turret, complete with orange trim. I painted fast since the weather was cold today. To create the textured snow and concrete effects, I started with some diluted, dark blue (PB60), and then worked in umbers (PBr7) and carbon black (PBk6). When dry I overlaid more of the same to give it the right value. The oranges were isoindo (PY110) and pyrol (PO73) pigments.
