Rust Effect Technique: Chaos Cultist

THE SHORT VERSION

The Cultist weapon reverses the usual clean-metal sequence by beginning with Mournfang Brown and layering Troll Slayer Orange over it. Leadbelcher is then applied selectively as surviving metal, allowing the corrosion colours to remain visible beneath and around it. The three-stage example is suited to neglected equipment where rust is a major part of the weapon’s appearance.
