Hi Smiler86, you have probably finished this by now! But way back when I was into Warhammer40000 I used to build lots of scenery, I used polystyrene cut to shape then melted with polystyrene cement cover this with pva glue or textured paint depending on type of finish required, allow to dry then spray with white or grey depending on top coat colour, the paint on top coat. when dry use a technique called dry brushing! Simply dip a brush into the paint then wipe off excess paint on a paper towel then lightly brush over scenery this has to be done several times to build up the effect then switch to a lighter colour and start again, once again building up the effect continue till you have the effect you want. After the dry brushing colour you can use an ink Games Workshop do these inks expensive for a small pot but they do tend to go a long way, these can also be mixed with the paint and can be watered down. The result is pretty dam good, if I can get my camera working I'll see if I can post a pic.
