I'm not liking this effect the same as on the IS-85's. To my eye, the wear pattern on this is too much and is blobby with less of a jagged effect. That's not to say that SU's look bad, they look good, it's just that the whitewash doesn't have the same striking effect as before.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I much prefer the IS85's too. I put a lot more salt on these, and also I think I mixed the overspray green too light for the second coat :(
ReplyDeletethank you for your thoughts MOW :)
They look great, much better than mine.
ReplyDeleteReally really nice, what do you use for the rust and dirt effects?
ReplyDeleteCheer Phil & Ben :)
ReplyDeleteFor the brown lining i use Mig dark wash and a tiny thin brush, capillary action does most of the work, so it's not too bad.
For the oil streaks I use Mig 'brown shadow' oil. Apply a tiny tiny 'blob' with a small brush, and then using a large flat head brush soaked in white spirit, brush over the 'blob' of oil. This should give you the streak affect.
Cheers,
Manny
Keep up the good work, you'll have to use your talents on Germans soon :)
ReplyDeleteHey Christian :)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to working on your Germans :)
How did you "attach" the salt initially? And what kind of salt is it?
ReplyDeleteNice work!
ReplyDeleteHey Phil,
ReplyDeleteI put a tutorial up in the post before this :)
