Take a look at my cobblestreet,i painted it in tamiya acrylics,a mix of dark grey and light grey.when it had dryed i rub the cobblestone with my fingers to get it to have a bit of a gloss look,as cobblestreets do have a bit of a shine to them.next trick may sound silly but you need to get your hands dirty.use dust or dry mud and put it on to your hands and rub it into the cobblestone untill the whole area is covered.then blow some of the dirt away.hopfully all the gaps in the cobbles are now filled with dirt,and it will stay on not like powders or pastels.
Well i hope it turns out to be a good tip?,cheers

Its really good!!I liked it a lot!It is scratch?
About the glossy look:I believe it should be flat!Imagine all the dust that a destroyed building leaves on the street!
Just my 2 cents!

or make the center of the road glossed over and the edges of the street grimier. Many roads are bent at the center so that water and various articles of junk
would flow down to the sides, and besides, not many people drive along the sides of the road. unless this is a single-lane width road.
