Nice work with that GS Vik! It is decent to work with and I have also used grey stuff, it stays soft longer than GS so you can keep fixing it a bit longer. Can be found at hobby shops or from Gailforce9

You may replicate the dented surface somewhere else and then try sanding it to see wether you like the result or not without messing this actual knight... Should not take long.

Woo! More minis to come
I wouldn't worry TOO much about the beaten metal look, if you imagine that second example pic you posted in green, it would look pretty nurgly. The metal gets beaten once by the artisans crafting the armour, then gets beaten several more times in the thick of battle
I hope you have something special planned for around 20 posts time
Which won't be long around these parts

They are not just thrown in, Monkey.
The hazel nuts are carefully placed by hand so there is one in every bite.

Free GS for every body^^ you can start by pulling the yellow out of my ears^^
as for hazelnuts... i am more an almond kind a guy^^
well actually new footage of the tank will have to wait...i am currently fully involved with my first love....no not what you pervs are thinking... converting plastic bitz into fully functioning minis^^
and i ahve thought what mostly drags me down when working with GS.... it is the amount of surfaces that i can cover on one mini in one session... so i went the same route like many other modelers and i will tomorrow work on 4! minis at the same time^^ yep you will get more minis to look at for your moneys worth...er...forget that last bit^^
well here is at fist Nr. 2 and the rightly followed by a group shot of all four as they are atm and ven a free turn around for all you makintosh wearing street strollers^^
