I'm looking for some help with the paint chipping on my Dakkajet I'm painting up. Normally I would do a rusty red-brown but with the jet being a brighter red (Mephiston Red to be exact) I feel the chipping would be lost.
I have some ideas of grey or a darker metal color but I'm not sure which would be the best. I've attached a
WIP of my previous Dakkajet for the color reference (this one is before the weathering).
Can someone please help me pick out a color to undercoat the model? I'll be using chipping medium to simulate paint peeling off.
