For this painting step and forward steps, I also made a video showing it in action at YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FibTZIYrN7k
Painting dark crevices and epitaph: Using a small detail brush and dark gray exterior paint, paint the inside of the epitaph. Using a larger detail brush, paint the crevices but also feather out to the edges.
Next: Detail aging painting. I also call this 'tea-staining.' Water down your dark gray exterior paint. Using your angle brush, roughly drip the paint over the top of the tombstone and help brush it down. Do it over and over again until you like the look. You are trying to make it look like this stone has been in the weather forever.
