Wiggleplum Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 Hello everyone, looking over the CRL for the Incinerator, it says that "Armor and paint should be lightly scuffed, but not weathered." Looking at the high resolution screens of it from the game, it is extensively weathered. I have already weathered mine, so hopefully this is some sort of mistake.

stevechewbacca[501st] Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 Hi michael ! This point was discussed on my own thread and here's Daetrin answer : This is a gap in language. What the intent was that armor should not be weathered like sandtroopers. How it should read is that the armor should be scuffed and lightly weathered, with weathering being defined as the use of blackwash or similar technique, as opposed to a sandy/dirty look. I looked through the CRL's/EIB's and we can certainly update this language to make it more clear. I think that means your amor can be weathered but not as dirty as a sandtrooper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dashrazor Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 (edited) yes, just try to keep the weathering colors to gray and black, not brown or tan like a sandtrooper. its more of a blackened scuffed up look. but i guess the key is to not go overboard. i am experimenting with some new weathering methods, ive only tested this on painted HIPS. so im not sure how it will work for ABSHERE the photos dont show all the details (it looks dirtier in person) but this is my newly weathered chest plate for the scratches i just used the tip of an exacto knife, and lightly scored the lines in the paints surface Edited September 20, 2021 by gmrhodes13 photo updated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest of the armor has the same amount (or less) of weathering and blackening; I just used some watered down black acrylic, sandpaper, and steel wool to help scuff up the pieces that were really smooth and glossy a bit.
