The orange slab wall looks like sand blasted before to get that kind of surface texture. Looks natural to me.

Design by me. The cliff was design by the contractor

Actually i still not satisfied with the color of the cliff

I think they use the technic called dry brush to make the highlight of the cliff. This technic used by the scale modeller to make weathering their scale model.
