Chapter 14 - Mud, mud and more mud
Mud was added by making a mixture of Hudson and Allen 'Mud', static grass, Gamblin earth tone dry pigments and Tamiya Flat Earth. First the area was coated with PollyScale airbrush thinner and then the heavy areas of mud were filled with the above mixture. The PollyScale thinner helps blend the edges of the mud for what I believe is a more realistic effect. I used an old brush to also spaltter the mud mixture as being thrown up by the tracks being carefully to analize where this may happen. When the mud was dry then a coat of various Gambling dry pigments were mixed with minieral spirits and washed over areas that would also have mud. A No. 2 pencil was used on wear areas of the track and running gear which removed some of the dry pigments and also gives a metalic sheen. Road wheels were rubbed with a cotton swab to show wear on the contact surfaces. |
