Hugely inspirational thread for my own WDF project  :-*

Would you mind me asking how you achieve the ingrained, collected dust effect in tyre grips and crevices on the vehicles? Is it pigment?

Thanks all :)

Hugely inspirational thread for my own WDF project  :-*

Would you mind me asking how you achieve the ingrained, collected dust effect in tyre grips and crevices on the vehicles? Is it pigment?

It’s AK Interactive ‘African Dust Effects’. Very easy to use. Just slop it on and it dries miraculously to look like sandy / dusty deposits. If you dilute it with white spirit, you can also use it for much more subtle effects - like dusting over / toning down vehicle insignia and AFV markings. It’s a very useful paint. Don’t know if you’re in the UK, but if so, Great Escape Games stock it along with a hundred other ingenious AK weathering products. 4.99 GBP :)
