Chipping and weathering is a lot of fun. You should give it a shot some time.

I didn't want to do brown or grey like you frequently see and wanted something in a colour not often present on my models so they really pop. I wanted a chunkier mix so I mix my own pastes using tile grout, flexible modeling paste, and mixed aragonite sand for saltwater aquariums. I wanted my rocks to look super sharp and jagged so I use torn up raw cork bark. I also wanted some way to fill large areas of negative space on the base so I did some little craters with water effects.

Yeah. They're just early versions of contrast paints with lots of gel medium and lots of gloss mixed in. I like the waystone green one, but any should work. Takes a lot of coats to get smooth. Could achieve the same with contrast over some blue shapes and then gloss varnishing the shit out of it or potentially mixing contrast with your gloss varnish but I haven't tried that yet

I just didn't want to make it seem more complicated than it is, it's like 3 steps. Thanks tho anon
