Subject:

[Chapter] Wear Areas

Date:

Nov 14, 2003

Wear Areas

Here the sprockets and idelrs have been painted, washed and dry-brushed. Wear areas on the sprocket teeth and areas on the idler that touches the tracks has been drybrushed using PollyScale graphite. Once the paint is dry a No. 2 pencil is rubbed on the wear areas that creates a realistic metallic sheen that is not silver. It reflects light brightly yet isn't light colored like a silver color when in a shadow area.
