Newbie - District 22 - Downtown L.A. (A table top railway)

[jonte]

I've had another bash at trying to replicate the flaking, blotchy effect on the narrow parapet at the base of the roof:

               

I used the hairspray technique I've heard so much about, but improvised a little by using an acrylic paint mix over a 'matt' enamel base. Depsite what I've read, it still worked and provided something more representative of the real thing than the botched, patchwork quilt finish provided by the Maskol system. I'm quite pleased with the results which will receive a drybrushing of the brick wash in more enamel over the top.
