Chipping is one of those techniques that looks like magic until you've got the right kit — then it's just a case of layering the right products in the right order. This set puts all four in one box, so you can start flaking paint and exposing bare metal on tanks, armour and terrain without hunting down bottles one at a time.

What's in the box

• AK088 Worn Effects Fluid
• AK089 Heavy Chipping Fluid
• AK11113 Chocolate Chipping colour
• AK11207 Aluminium Chipping colour
• A step-by-step Chipping Essentials user guide

Best for

• Battle-worn armour plate and vehicle stowage
• Scuffed metal edges on scenery and terrain
• Modellers trying the chipping-fluid technique for the first time

Follow the guide once and you'll have the technique down for every model that follows — a proper weathering shortcut, not a gimmick.

Four products, one box, no guesswork.
