Great video! I tried it out and it works. I have another way of doing it though. I add some water, and some dishsoap together( trying not to create any bubbles), then I just add some normal acrylic paint. I put it all over the model and just wipe it off with a dry cotton swab when its done. Same results, just makes you feel more fancy.

[@nicholasarkis6116]

Do you have to let it completely dry before wiping?

[@druide10]

Great tutorial, thank you, this is very usefull because just starting again with models. Need every brand of weathering wash dry up for about 20-30 min ?

[@lerse666]

easy, cheap and effective, thanx! will surely try on my next kit

[@genessismodels]

Have fun!

[@worldofwarbirds]

Thanks for this. Very informative!

[@occamsrayzor]

It's good to see you using the tried and true 'universal solvent', favoured by all the best model makers, and also known as spit. ;-)

[@fabiosecioso]

Do you use any product to fix the pastel? I've read reports that applying varnish after pastel without fixative makes the pastel disappear.

[@genessismodels]

No need for that mate

[@NickThompson-n2p]

I assume you would do this before finishing with a varnish.

[@1337flite]

THe detergent is a surfecant - something that reduces surface tension. You could try adding some Kaolin, which is a type of fine powdered clay used for many things including I think cosmetics, ceramics and as a dioherhea treatment (it used to be in our medical packs in the 90s).

[@biggestelvis]

Thanks for the tips! Amateur question for everyone- is there a reason to go with the acrylic "sludge wash" over the oil based pinwash method? Does it depend on the model? Or is it just personal choice?

[@genessismodels]

I would say oil based can give you more of a pro look, and sludge wash I would say is more standard

[@equals-kl9hm]

I would not use acrylic over oil . . . ever. Oil over acrylic is fine but oil is too unstable to paint acrylic over. A simple fix is to use an enamel. Enamel and acrylic can be painted over one another and are stable once dry.

[@Red.Diffraction.Studio]

So the Sludge Wash you are using here is acrylic? The result is amazing! I mean, Tamiya acrylics are good, same level as Humbrol Enamel paints in my opinion. I am very disapointed by Citadel paints and models, GW.. even ForgeWorld resin. I think this wash, with pigments and oils could be a great combo if we could mix them together.

[@cobusprinsloo]

The washing fluid: is that from dishwashing fluid?

[@genessismodels]

yeah just dishwashing fluid, just dont tell the wife ;-)

[@hamishsheinkels1478]

Great video mate, do you have a video about brush painting motteling

[@genessismodels]

sorry not really done that as an airbrush does the job really good but could do one in the future

[@hamishsheinkels1478]

What do you use for your gloss clear coat doing the wash?

here is a link to what I use mate: www.genessis-models.co.uk/product/mr-hobby-gx-112-gx-super-clear-iii-uv-cut-gloss-mr-color-18ml/

[@bigcharliesmodelgarage296]

Thanks for the tips.

[@hidalgohouse3815]

But what about people who can't get Flory water based wash.

[@rescuematty]

Do you use this wash in the wheel wells As well or is there another way to “dirty” them up?

[@genessismodels]

you can do, but you can also use enamel pin wash for wheel wells as well

[@spinster4000]

Can I do this TAMIYA panel Line accent color black? I’ve had to hand brush the bottom section of my 1/48 f4 phantom and I’ve always covered up all the detail (no airbrush or spray cans) and so I’d like to try and accent the remaining detail but all I’ve got is the TAMIYA one

[@genessismodels]

black would still work but does risk the panel lines coming out tooo much

[@spinster4000]

@@genessismodels I also have dark brown and dark gray, I’ll try dark brown on a small 1/72 before I move onto my 1/48, my 1/48 is my pride and joy I’ve been working on it for 6 months lol

[@spinster4000]

@@genessismodels thanks for the awesome video! This really helped me a lot

[@iamsiuuuuuu]

Does the varnish above the wash have to be a sprayed on wash? Or does it work to paint the varnish on with a brush?

[@genessismodels]

always best to spray but you could brush paint

[@iamsiuuuuuu]

@@genessismodels ok, thanks.

[@kevingerard3898]

great video! thanks. I always apply Humbrol Clear gloss before the wash, but i usually still end up damaging the paint / varnish job whicel cleaning the wash. Any tips on this?

[@genessismodels]

its best to use a water based gloss if that helps and to give the gloss time to dry

[@lucianodeltorchio1912]

Which is the real difference between Soft Pastel and yours? Thanks Bob for all.

[@notmodeling8070]

His,are soft pastels oil,based do nit powder down because there oil based

[@dr.doppeldecker3832]

I have some oil pastels laying around, does this also work with oil based pastels or are they not suitable for weathering at all?

[@notmodeling8070]

No theynhave to be aoftnpastels oil based ones have oil in do not use the oil based ones go,for,the earth tones

[@DavidJones-wr3sb]

I use the flory wash. Really good stuff... But it's gotta be over a gloss varnish... Try it on a matt finish and you'll ruin your model.. It won't come off a matt finish 👍

[@cobusprinsloo]

Will it work on a satin coat?

[@DavidJones-wr3sb]

@@cobusprinsloo not sure, never tried it on a satin varnish,

[@dietermuller8625]

Very helpfull! Thanks a lot 🙂

[@genessismodels]

Glad it was helpful!

[@jpc7200]

Nice tutorial! Could you please take it a step further and show us how to do it with the pastels?

[@genessismodels]

The pastels are done the same way as mixing pigments and used in the same way as the flory models wash ;-)

[@jpc7200]

@@genessismodels Thanks!

Thank you for the tips. But 5 minutes of talking and 30 seconds on doing?
