Hello there! Foundling here.
So I haven't even gotten my materials to start, but after watching a lot of videos and reading through the forums, I had a thought.
I'm having an awesome clan mate help me 3D print my helmet, and I'm going to be making my armor with sintra. Since they're two different materials, I started to wonder how using the same methods of weathering might look differently on different materials.
I haven't worked with *anything* and the question may be really dumb for people with experience. But since different surfaces and components respond differently to things and I'm too poor for massive trial and error, I thought I'd ask -- does having the different materials make it difficult to have the weathering look the same throughout?
Secondly, for my colors, because my soul is black and so is everything I own, I was hoping to use black as my main color. But that leads me to the question -- how do you weather black? Probably dumb question. But since I can't imagine things showing up on black and a lot of people seem to use black *for* weathering (at least in the videos I watched and things I've read), I'm having a hard time picturing it mentally.
Am I just overthinking this? Probably.
Thanks for helping the nutter over here anyways!
