I watched Gerry’s video on brickwork and thought what the hell – if Gerry can … any buck eejit must be able to! So out with the weathering powders. I used a mix of Light Orange Oxide from GSW and Vallejo Desert Dust. It looked pretty good on dry – then I lightly dabbed it with some fixer and it really knocked it back. It’s almost too subtle but it does make a difference.

Subtle

I decided to give it another pass. This time I added in a little VMC Dark Yellow Ochre – then rather than dabbing fixer on with a brush, I put some of it in a small spray bottle and sprayed it on. I’m not sure if it was just adding the lighter colour or using the spray method, but the effect is more noticeable and I quite like it.
