Mark,
Nice work.  I am very interested in seeing your painting and weathering techniques. I've never tried the hairspray approach. Geoff

I was just doing some hairspray chipping last night. It works very well.

Yeah, and when he came to he started painting his models with hairspray, PAM cooking spray, cheeze whiz...anything in a can. It was weird.

No, no. You guys don't know Marc well enough. It's when he doesn't use Pam, hairspray, fingerpaints, or guacamole that you should begin to worry! -- Russ

Guacamole and Cheez Whiz...  :o  I must have missed that SBS. Must have something to do with chipping...  ;D

Speaking of Tequila...here is a quick one hour experiment I did after we got back from the mexican restaurant and having margaritas.....

I needed a piece if cut metal signage that would bend like metal, and when seen from the backside would look like old metal......so.......

You take a piece of aluminum pie tin that was etched in Ferric-Chloride (cut alumin. to size before etching)....




Take a Micro-Scale decal, and blast it with baking soda to fade the colors and spot wear through the decal.




Then apply the decal to the etched alumin., set with Decal setting solution, lightly brush some CMK light rust pigment into the chipped areas, add some random spotting with Abt-502 rust oils, Seal with Model Master "Lusterless Flat"....do a bit more spotting with the oils, and dab some Bragdon's dark rust pigment along the edges......then glue in place using ACC.




It's no Chuck Doan sign...but for an hour's worth of work it's passable, and I definitely think the decal wear method has some future potential...especially with a bit more experimentation.
