As a quick break and therapy from starships, I've pulled a previously started Panzer IV kit off the shelf to get my hands dirty in some real armor weathering. I've been watching a ton of tutorials on the mig paint products, chipping and rust effects and dove right in.
The first step was to spray the hull in primer/rust colors. Then, a layer of chipping fluid before the camouflage paint. A brush dipped in water 'chips' the paint coat, revealing the bare metal look. First time I had done this so I was pleased it worked.

And here we are, all finished! All that was left to do was the track assembly/painting and the decals, which took a few hours this past Sunday. I also added my wife's name to the driver side hull in white pencil. The finished pics:

Also: could you explain how the chipping fluid works (or how you did it)?
I can see it in the pic, but never heard nor seen it before this instance. I'm interested in the expert's hands-on review .... |
