Trying Something New
So for the Knight Tyrant I’ve put together a Rhino to act as a scenic base. The plan is to paint it as a Dark Angels tank (My buddy plays Dark Angels). So I’m putting down an initial metallic layer with rusting and then I plan to try the hairspray & salt chipping method.

What’s the hairspray and salt chipping method?
@twotonebax
Paint your “underlayers” - as seen here it’s bare metal & rust.
Varnish the model and let that dry for 24+ hours.
Then get some hairspray and salt, “prime” the entire model with a thick coat of hairspray; while it’s still wet sprinkle salt all over it so the salt sticks to the hairspray. Let dry for an hour.
Paint the model whatever color you want the model to be when done.
Once that’s dry using an old toothbrush and hot water, rub away at the salt, it’ll dissolve and come loose.
