After drybrushing, I usually make a mixture of black, dark brown and dark green ink, mixed only partially so that the colour is uneven, and thin enough so that it barely stains the highlights, but brings out the details. Granted, this tends to make things look decaying and moldy, but that's the way I like it. YMMV, of course.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4891509519427970698.post-64872850218642771172011-09-20T18:04:55.383-06:002011-09-20T18:04:55.383-06:00I like these.

Depending on how detailed you want to get, a dry-brushing like Desert Scribe suggested can work very well also. With scenery, sometimes I go that route, sometimes I just go with a simple application of color, depending on my mood and the piece.Chris C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08655640273250716377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4891509519427970698.post-23282102443733493722011-09-19T10:08:04.398-06:002011-09-19T10:08:04.398-06:00Cool, nice work.

You could also try a metallic black for the metal, which would give it that wrought iron look.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4891509519427970698.post-18622374178160261922011-09-18T17:40:44.150-06:002011-09-18T17:40:44.150-06:00For iron, I suggest painting the metalwork black, ...For iron, I suggest painting the metalwork black, then drybushing some metallic grey (for bare metal) or redddish brown (for rust). Same thing for bronze, but drybrush with metallic antique copper or something similar.Desert Scribehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13862907749003106864noreply@blogger.com
