So finally I think I'm going to put some earth and muck colour pigments on ,just to make it look dusty , so I read somewhere that the more expensive pigments are really better and this stage i don't want to ruin it, so I ordered 2 bottles of ak interactive European earth and light dust pigments from snm stuff , a brilliant online modelling supplier for all your modelling needs in the UK , good prices and reasonable postage with 48 hr delivery. Trouble was that the colours on the ak pigments bottles and colour chart that come from ak pigments as shown in most model shops are nothing like the chart shows , not snm stuff,s fault as its all ak interactive colour charts . Sean from snm stuff agreed with me completely and offered me a refund or send me a bottle of ak burnt amber pigment which looked more like the European earth on the ak chart , which I accepted , he is going to make his own photos of the pigments in future , so great customer service from them . Then after trying the pigments out , I am afraid I absolutely hate ek interactive pigments, it is too fine ,doesn't look real and cannot be brushed about ,it sticks to the model and is even hard to wash back off with water , I ended up using my crushed soft pastel pigments in the end , which could be brushed where you want and removed if you didn't like it , much more workable , So I will not be buying more expensive weathering products again.
