This is a test piece for my Desert Rats.
One layer of household emulsion paint. Vallejo Crackle Medium and then another layer of household emulsion.
I’m happy with this, so no GW only one shade of cracked soil. I can have any colour I want.

Looks good. I saw the Terranscapes guy using a crackle paste (Kroma crackle) for one of his desert boards. The effect was extremly realistic and I think the paste wasn’t that expensive. Here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FU-QqBz2SWI
