weathering
« on: July 22, 2010, 07:12:34 pm »
I'm looking at weathering one of my gundams. What is the best way to do that? Are there kits to buy that will help me in this process? Thanks

Well there are a lot of ways to do it. I've read that you can use an old toothbrush and use the dry-brushing technique to apply some light weathering. that's a good technique for the inner frame on a MG.

Here are some links to look at:

Really just use google to find tutorials on how to weather. I don't know about any kits helping you with weathering.
Just use your imagination, and have fun!
Sorry i cant be anymore helpful, hope this helps.

Thanks man, ya this morning I just fooled around this it. I used an electric screw driver, sandpaper, and a lighter lol This is what came out from all of that. I beleive I'm going to get some dirt and water it a little bit and try to put some on the Zaku. To dirty it up!!
