Begin with a heavy wash or ink over the area you plan to muddy. I prefer agrax earthshade followed by seraphim sepia. Then begin drybrushing your deepest tone from your basing colors on, followed by your lighter colors, using less paint as you get lighter. Try to apply them while the last layer is still a bit wet to blend the tones. Also, this effect should be heaviest on boots & greaves & more sparse as you go higher. Obviously on less mobile models like devastators it's not unreasonable too see heavier concentrations of mud on places such as knees as well. Dry mud would have a very flat, chalky texture best achieved with a very tiny amount of white applied after matte varnish. While wet mud I'd recommend a heavy ink layer & a gloss varnish in any lower or recessed spots on the base & satin varnish on the raised textures.

I'd also suggest a pumice gel for the bases & for adding mud to tracks ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/497414/5130047.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/497414/5130047.page GMT
