Thanks for the great video! Still new to black basing so this will help along the way. How would you pick out the underlying marble color on for example multi color camo paterns?
In that instance I do the same process. I just map out the camo pattern and don't overspray into areas where the other color(s) go. With a detail airbrush and spraying small this is pretty straightforward. Then you can mask if you wany to or freehand the next color. If that seems confusing let me know and I'll try and explain better
I’m probably in the minority but I use white as my marble layer and on multi colored camo schemes, I spray the first camo color in roughly the area I want it, mask it, then touch up the edges around the masks with black/ white...rinse and repeat. Although it’s a little extra work, I’ve found that it keeps the weathering consistent throughout the demarcation of camo colors...I’ve only done it using hard edge camo patterns and might be a little more difficult with softer edges. I posted a video using this technique on a 1/32 Horten Ho 229. Some good videos btw Jim, It’s nice to know there are other dorks out there like me ;). Subbed. Sean
Thank you for the constructive feedback as usual. Could you please point me to where I can find your videos? Or any contribution you've made to the hobby?

Hi Jim yes that does make sense! Main thing i wonder is would you use a lighter color for the marbeling or the same as the top color?
Yawn...
