Ready to Paint!

So I just finished sanding and tomorrow after a damp wipe-down I should be able to paint the black section of my studio- I am doing 2 walls in matte black and 2 in matte white to give me some flexibility and so i don't have to always rely on backdrops.

Then I can block out the 'windows' (marked with green X's in the photo below) into my planned darkroom area with black paper for now (permanent new walls later). I am going to use a system of homemade hinged window covers made from black foamcore board(just bought a case of 10) to control light from all the windows. I may put up a curtain at the entrance to the darkroom temporarily before I put in a dividing wall to split the darkroom froma corridor back and up to the house above. I will post again once painted and windows are blocked! Then hopefully a first test shoot!
