What we start with is laying the foundation of several progressively lighter, off-white tones, stippled with a big brush. What that achieves is a nice progression from darker tones to lighter ones, while creating a mottled texture, as the different tones show through in spots.

This difference in spots is later unified by a Dystopian Brown enamel wash, which really aims just to tie everything together and move into a warmer, almost bone-like colour.

Rest of the weathering is done with a Goon's Grime Enamel wash, chipping, and weathering pencils.

Goon’s Grime is an enamel, which means it stays workable long after application. Once it’s dry to the touch, mineral spirits can reactivate it, letting you remove it entirely or finesse the effect until it’s exactly right. That extended working time gives you a level of control and refinement that acrylics simply can’t match.⁠
