nick.black Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 Can I ask Dave, the secret of how you make the sticker mark on the pauldron? Pretty please Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sir david Posted May 6, 2011 Author Share Posted May 6, 2011 no worries buddy! we are all here to help each other out! the pigment i used for the pauldron and armour weathering was acrylic burnt umber(you could use raw umber too if you preffer) atists paint,i sponged the pauldron over lightly with the umber ,then got a small plastic drinks bottle, painted the umber on to the base and "printed" the circle onto the pauldron!!!.... after 15 mins i used a damp sponge to wipe/rub off pigment in the centre of the circle to make a ring,then removed excess weathering on the rest of the pauldron with a plastic bristled nail brush!!! works for me bro!
