[QUOTE="mykull, post: 5589, member: 73"] Yup... your totally right about the dirt never showing up in the photos of your own suit. I mean.. I just posted a thread titled "My Mannequin Fett" and you will see right there.. that the dirt doesn't show as much as it is in real life. I have my suit pretty dirty... I thought close to the real MOM suits, but still in the photos.. they just don't do any justice... they look pretty light. I mean you can see some dirt.. but just not as much as I would like to show.... but I guess to do that.. I have to dirty my suit up even more.. and then I guess looking at it in person would almost make me think its to much wear and tear. So if you want a good pointer in dirting up your suit.. get some real dirt.. grind it into the baby.. and also use some artist charcols and shave off with a xacto knife and grid that into it as well.. I used a multi browns.. and black.. and some white to... and I splattered some black paint onto it as well.. as a finished touch.. Like I said.. take a look at my other threat and see for yourself my mannequin wearing the suit looks pretty clean.. but it ain't... Good luck [/QUOTE]
