Here, the 'dead layer' has been completed. Note that even though the images has been painted in gray values, the overall look is warm; this is due to the fact that ochre and Indian Red (a substitute for Red Ochre), was added when creating the 'dead layer' mix, and because the first few layers, (made up from various earth tones), helped to create warm tones you see here.
