Testing white wash techniques.

[jsteinman]

So I wanted to test out different methods of achieving a worn white wash. I will use MIG washable white, with and without hairspray, and regular white with hairspray.


The test bed, Tamiya ancient KV-2. Hairspray applied.


Washable white applied.


Washable white activated on roof. (no hairspray)


Washable over hairspray activated.


Non-washable over hairspray.


Activated.

Then I went on to play around a little bit more, just for the hell of it.


I "washed" off more white to see how far I could go, then with my finger and a drop of washable white, I smeared it over the "washable" side.


Then I did the same thing to the Non-washable side.

As you can see, by varying the materials and techniques you get wildly different results!

So the washable stuff is much easier to remove than "regular" white, I take it? Great array of effects there!
