If I see a colour of pigment I like I use it. Good pigments to have are burnt umber and black for soot and burnt stuff, and some rust coloured ones. Sand for well, sand. <br /><br />In this case I just happened to use MIG and Forgeworld.Laffehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09125733864107467243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-950117687049086591.post-36475239338833267092015-10-02T09:42:27.788+02:002015-10-02T09:42:27.788+02:00Thanks Paul!

You soak it up with a brush and touch the tip to the model and let capillary action draw the fluid onto it. It looks like the pigments disappear, but when the fixer has dried the pigments come back. <br /><br />And yes, the tools usually are painted the same colour as the tank, but that makes a very boring model.Laffehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09125733864107467243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-950117687049086591.post-7050269313476064992015-10-02T08:46:20.198+02:002015-10-02T08:46:20.198+02:00Looks great!

The method you used for chipping looks much quicker than the hairspray method.
