Hi,

For my next Diorama am planning to build a ruined cottage. For this I would like to create a cracked paint effect on the walls...searched in Armorama but couldnt find a thread which talks about such methods. Heard some tempera technique but couldn't info on it either...would somebody please help me on this...

Cheers,
Sudeep
