GOAL: Give the statues an even more weathered look and also create a stronger sense of eeriness.

What you would do #37

What I did:
-Cropped more tightly around the statues.
-Desaturated 100%.
-Histogram midtones adjustment (-15).
-Unsharp mask (radius 75, strength 35).
-Added 2 texture layers (sepia-colored rough wall and green lichen on a purplish rock) on top of original layer.
-Blended first layer hard light, 70%, and erased areas around statue.
-Blended second layer overlay, 100%.
-Colorized greenish the original layer.
-Merged all 3 layers.
