Hey everyone,

Just posted a new YouTube tutorial. In this 8-minute video, I demonstrate using the "hairspray weathering technique" to achieve realistic looking scratches and battle damage. I also demonstrate painting the blues and whites on this Cygnar Stormwall.

And the finished model looks like this:

Thanks a bunch for watching! I appreciate you guys taking time out of your day to watch my videos.

Awesome tutorial!

I just have a quick question,

how are you running the pigments through your airbrush? Just mixing it with paint?

Yep, I add a little to the paint (and, of course, more thinner than usual). I also used just straight water and pigment, too. Works great, but be sure to thin it thoroughly -- it'll gunk up your airbrush if the pigments aren't thoroughly dissolved into the water.

Thanks for watching!

Very useful tutorial! Been using the hairspray technique for a while, but your method of scraping away the chips works loads better than mine!

**pistolepete**

yeah I heard about this method for years (used to do armor) but never really understood until now. Nice job, I like your method for rust streaks as well!

Very cool, and pretty simple
