Storm7271 Posted July 15, 2008 Report Posted July 15, 2008 I'm looking to 'mod' my FX kit to have some batle damage. Nothing real major. Maybe some scorch marks, blaster hits and such. If anyone has any ideas or 'how-to's' they would like to share, let me know. Thanks ! Quote
wannabetrooper Posted July 15, 2008 Report Posted July 15, 2008 (edited) Found this. It's more to resemble damage from time and age, but I think it looks cool. I plan to use this technique on one of my helmets. Hope this helps. --------- Luis. Edited December 14, 2020 by gmrhodes13 link not working, removed gmrhodes13 2020 Quote
Korlak Posted July 15, 2008 Report Posted July 15, 2008 (edited) I also am looking into making mine battle damaged a little later. I got my inspiration from the fanfilm I.M.P.S. You should look into the TK's they have in that film. very well made. ----------- Edited December 14, 2020 by gmrhodes13 link not working, removed gmrhodes13 2020 Quote
Stomper Posted July 19, 2008 Report Posted July 19, 2008 Take a piece of PVC pipe, spray paint it flat black. Let it dry for 15-20 minutes, then rub against your armor here and there, you can also lightly "whack" it against your armor... it makes for nice carbon scoring and light battle damage. Here's a shot of my dirty TD armor while "visiting" a Starbucks... all of the black smudges and "scrapes" were done with the "painted pipe" technique: Hope that helps! Quote
Storm7271 Posted July 19, 2008 Author Report Posted July 19, 2008 Thanks for the idea's.... I really like the 'painted pipe' idea... Quote

DoubleTap Posted July 19, 2008 Report Posted July 19, 2008 PM "Daverian" he has some really nice and realistic looking battle damage on his armor. I'm surprised he hasn't added a reply in here. He is on the far right in this picture. Quote
