Really like your style of painting. Only criticism is some of the models have visible mould lines and joints. Just a little bit more prep before painting will sort it!
Good man! Actually...if you don't mind, could you let me know how you achieve your paint chipping effects on the kans(?) Shoulder pads?
Thats what I do for 1st stage weathering. Worked really well on those shoulder plates
I guess because they are such large areas it works better, the curve maybe helped to lengthen the sponge dabs too.
Intrigued as to what your other stages for weathering are?.. Pray tell!
I'll use a couple of washes applied locally to simulate grease and oils. Exhausts either get a Matt black drybrush to simulate soot or I'll bronze, blue, purple, red them to look like heat distortion. Gun barrels too.
Then I'll use something like streaking grime to really dirty it up. Needs a good cost of varnish at several stages too in case you want to undo any of that.
