Hey scarface,
Here are some techniques that might help.
Distressing
First with the unpainted foam
Your options are
- Sandblasting (Need a sand blaster)
- Spray paint (Eats into the foam )
- carburetor cleaner (Eats into the foam)
- torching (Nice technique) Sprinkle water on foam 1st
- Break off pieces reglue some back on
- melt cracks in the foam with soldering Iron.
Weathering
Paint base coat Latex Paint
Options
- Airbrush
- Dry brush
- Lay stone flat
Wet stone spray paint on water
Lift stone vertical and allow paint to run down stone
(Base coat has to be fully dry )
- Wash of watered down paint (Similar to above.)
Hope this helps .
