    A modeling question

    I'd like to hear your techniques for depicting dirt and mud spattering. I tried flipping and snapping a brush at desired areas and managed to scatter more over me and my workbench! Ideas anyone?
    The more screws it takes to reassemble a tank, the more likely it is you left something out!

      This one was using the same flicking method with the brush and enamel mud paints and lots of patience-

          and more flicking... btw this was all be fore I had an airbrush.

          I found dipping the brush then flicking it onto paper towel till I got the spray pattern and volume before applying it to the tank worked best. I used a toothpick to flick. The biggest challenge was to get it to flick in the right directiion. And then I would actually flick from the ground up to the tank Not parallel or from above.

            this used the same AK terrain mud- but I also used an airbrush to change the color and mist the mud on

                I like the flicking - good hint bout pre-flicking onto a paper. So, how do you make a spatter with an airbrush without xlogging the heck out of it?
