Can anybody point me in the right direction for tips on painting distressed buildings? I've assembled a number of simple, block buildings and want to paint them so they look like they've endured years of neglect and battle damage. Suggestions? |

Believe it or not but look up weathering pigments on model train videos on YouTube. Right what you're looking for. |

Yep, pigments. Though i just smash up chalk pastels rather than buying model making weathering pigments. |

Also if you've got them around, those bare minerals makeup powders work great too. I know that sounds weird but if you really think about it, those are just very fine pigments in reality. They've got a shelf life, as all makeup evidently does, or so my wife keeps telling me ![:{[]](./images/smilies/headbang.gif "Headbang") , so people are just tossing them out. Got a whole bag of them that way for free.
