Sabretooth_aw Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 Some pics of my weathering to my armour... I tried to be light about it cos I was thinking it is just sand... I was trying to get it more grey like TD6025 than yellow but guess the sand color I used gave it a yellowish coat instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clutch Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 looks a bit yellow-ochre-ish for my tastes, but it still looks nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freakengine Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 I prefer the "less is more" approach too. It's always hard to see the more subtle bits in a pic, but it looks good. If anything, I'd add a bit of a darker color like burnt umber, but not much. You'll find that a three-tone weathering, using a base color, a darker shade, and a lighter tone, will help all three colors achieve a dimensionality you can't get with just a single color, or even two colors. You can still stay relatively light with the overall look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trooper Peter Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Looks good, the clone on the left of the picture looks like his shin is falling off. Great sandy suit oh.. that's a kid in an oversized clone armour... bad casting and mod... ...either that or he is inventing a new form of Bell Bottom clonetrooper calf armor. The kid should've stuck to being a Biker Scout... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK-459 Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 You'll find that a three-tone weathering, using a base color, a darker shade, and a lighter tone, will help all three colors achieve a dimensionality you can't get with just a single color, or even two colors. I just want to add that I have recently discovered that it is really a four-tone weathering (or six if you include the fullers). It's easy to take white for granted, but the base white tone is as critical to the overall look as the weathering top-layers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SethB6025 Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Very true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TD-4510 Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 That clone in the middle is my old armor and helmet!! What a trip!!!! How'd it get all the way to Singapore?!! Looks better on a taller person. Those are TD-1536 shoulder bells and hand guards on there, just so he knows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
