That looks really cool. What a improvement from the OEM.  What did you use to accentuate the panel lines?

I use a oil wash.

Thanks.

Nice weathering!

We've already asked how you accentuate the panel lines, so I'll ask about your technique for chipping.

I build Maschinen Krieger kits, and I'll either use Army Painter matte black as a primer under acrylics, then scuff the acrylic coat to reveal the black underneath.  And I use thin acrylic grays and blacks, applied over the color coat.  Both techniques give me slightly different kinds of chipping and wear.

How do you do yours?

Best regards,

I use a small brush and Model Master Gun Metal to make the chipping effect.

Very cool! Love the chipped dinged-up look you've got there!
