I have been carefully honing my weathering techniques and I am very happy to showcase my latest effort, that of an Adeptus Mechanicus Imperial Knight.
I used various painting techniques and created a lot of the battle damage using chipping fluids. I had a layer of burnished copper/metal underneath which followed by air brushing the brighter colours over the top. I chipped away at the top coat with a tooth brush and pick to reveal the mottled surface below. I created rust using an enamel rust streak paint and pulling them across the surface with white spirit. I also used a number of GW washes and metallic highlights to pull it altogether. The base was particularly fun, I spent a lot of time trying to make everything look 'part of the scene' rather then artificially placed. It was all topped off with Forgeworld weathering powders.
