MediumWillPower Posted March 31 Posted March 31 Loved reading your entire build progress! Do you have any further details on how you weather using the acrylic? I'm currently using the same for my weathering. I put the acrylic on the dark brown undercoat, is that what you did and then just peel it when its all painted? Do you clear coat any layers? Thanks! 1 Quote

Thanks so much for stopping by and having a look! I haven't used clear coat on my armour, I only used acrylics liberally on surface of final paint to fill edges and grooves where grime would gather. For the heavy weathering I used latex mask between coats of Montana Gold and peeled to reveal chipping scoring. Hope this helps. Thanks again for stopping by. 1 Quote
