rutger: if your seeing this post,don't think it will be this army ^^ or even these colours.. it might be a set up.. you will never geuss it )

So i found some old gaurdsman model and patched them up cleaned the paint off and repainted them.. i am quite satisfied with the result specially the comander, who's face is the best i have ever done.. a pity it's not clear on the picture.. couldn't find a good focus.. but the heavy chipping isn't what i want it to be.. as you can see below






okay it's not very clear on the pictures but to give you guys an idea: i lightly drybrushed random place on the armour paying special attention to the edges, and used the chipping tecnieque for vehicles, the one with wich you use a sponge.. in this case a very fine sponge
(don't mind the blue wip's in the back)

what i want to learn is hw do you do this chipping?

okay i know.. this is another level of painting way better then mine but hey ya gotta start somewhere ej?? maybe not the best choice to compare my poor gaurdsmen with but you guys get the point i hope

hope to hear lots of tips oon


THX !! !! ! !! ! ! !
sorry to the owner from who i stole the pic..

Good luck; i think over-chipping looks awesome but it's such a damn huge amount of work

2)Get coarse, kosher salt. Brush water onto the model where you want the chips, and then pour the salt onto the model. Let this dry.
3) Re-spray the model and salt chunks your actual basecoat color, in that case blue.
4) Use your fingernails to scrape the salt covered in paint off. The parts underneath the salt will have gotten no blue paint on them, be rust colored, and slightly depressed in.
5) Say "daaaaaamn, that looks sweet."
6) Say "Thanks, Doomthumbs!"

The chipping on that model is painted similarly to this:

Besides, salt weathering actually chips the paint.
Might just be my opinion but nothing looks like chipped paint like chipped paint.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/370007/2825287.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/370007/2825287.page GMT CHIPPING HELP REQUESTED http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/370007/2827300.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/370007/2827300.page GMT Re:CHIPPING HELP REQUESTED
BTW Jos, ever tried wet pallette? I found out lately really works awesome to keep your mixed paints from drying up. Just take a water bucket, put a foam piece from a blister pack on top of the water and the paint goes on top. I managed to paint a mixed grey for at least an hour, had dinner for another hour and when I returned I could simply paint on the same damn color! You gotta try; it's freakin awesome µ

Oh, and... Is it orks? I bet it is. If so don't make them glossy cause glossy orks plain suck :p I won't tell rutger come on ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/370007/2828635.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/370007/2828635.page GMT CHIPPING HELP REQUESTED

I remember seeing a tutorial on here a long time ago with that Space Wolf. That weathering was done by painting. If I'm not mistaken, there was a sponge application of the base, then highlighted with a brush. It's been awhile. I may be misremembering.
