Modlbldr Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Now that is some perfect weathering. Got any tips on how to use the oil paints to get results like that? Just look at the detail in the center of the front wheel. It's perfect. How do you thin the paint and to what consistency? Later- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shardik Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 (edited) I'm with Tom on this one; I'd love to see a tutorial on your weathering techniques. Your results a amazingly realistic. Getting this kind of subtle used-but-not-abused look seems more difficult than the extreme weathering that we usually see.
