I think I want the bottom to be almost black and then have brown and black streaks up the side until the model starts to taper. Do you think that will look good?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/236961/672651.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/236961/672651.page GMT 40k thing but I have done plenty of models in the past. I used a sponge and dry brushed with it to get the burn marks. The color scheme you mentions sounds good to me.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/236961/672660.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/236961/672660.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/236961/672664.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/236961/672664.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/236961/672666.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/236961/672666.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/236961/672724.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/236961/672724.page GMT apart from vallejo's smoky ink, there's a great smoke paint from tamiya too (i prefer it, it's transparent). just put in on in thin layers, or airbrush it, if you can. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/236961/673464.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/236961/673464.page GMT
Burns. If you don't wanna shell out the $$ for MIG Pigments. Buy some pastel sticks. I used it on my Dread and turned out great. Just shave on it with your hobby knife or use sand paper to make the powder. Apply a clear varnish or medium where you want it and apply the pastel dust with a brush.

A pic of my WIP on the Dread so you can see the results.

Kind of exposed metal effect.
2 - Next, I dry brushed a brown. For the effect of rust build up at the exposed metal.
3 - Last, dry brush black for the burns. With a light brush of sliver again for a hint of exposed metal.
End product:


I know, it's not very clear. Here's another pic for reference.
