GRK 660 Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Another cracker! Can't wait to see your next masterpiece. Would you mind sharing how you get the speckled weathering effects on the prop? Its a bit hard to tell from the pictures if its a different shade of paint or a flecked varnish effect. Thanks in advance! Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks in advance! Thanks! As for the prop it's a little bit of both, but mainly flecked varnish. I do spray it with slightly lightened base color and do some sponge chipping with a lighter green, but almost all of that is hidden by the varnish trick. I toned it down a little this time compared to my other recent builds, it's AK Matte Varnish with Ultra Matte flecked on it with a brush and toothpick, then a thin layer of Matte sprayed back over top Link to post Share on other sites
