^ if you look at the back, you can see the jugs of blue and red (plus the blue in the paint tin). Here is the chalk art being worked on where only chalk is being used:

the 3D art in that area is the only work NOT using chalk. I believe the rain does wash out the chalk art. here is the latest Nate Baranowski in progress:

They seem to have some kind of protective finish on them. The 3D one for example, can be walked over to get photos of someone inside the scene.

These are genuinely impressive. Do they redo them every day/after storms or is there some sort of protective glaze?

I'll wait until those get to Character warehouse for $40-$60.

Just selling them on shopdisney would kill the secondary market. Until they sold out. It would also make them less special, less exclusive.
