I'm just guessing here but what about that spackle stuff. It was used on ceilings back in the day... popcorn ceilings I think it was called.

Maybe plaster with some food coloring but that will still flake off eventually

Get you some rubberized paint. It has a texture effect. You can get it at any auto paint store.

y sustion would be to get an old toothbrush, some brown latex paint in a semi flat or flat depending on how wet you want you mud to look, THen dip the bristles into the paint and going from under the body (like in the wheel well take your thumb and run it back against the britles and the paint will splatter in a simmilar pattern to the mud.. this type of painting was popular in the eighties with camaros and such on the dash..... |

Search google for spray on mud. There is a product out on the market for this. The first time I saw it I was lmao. There site is down, but there are a lot of other sites talking about it.

Try this I used to be into model trains. They make all kind of stuff to look like ground coverage and I know they have ballast that is the color of dirt. You could apply it with CA glue and then apply a little dust with CA to make it blend. JUST MY $0.02

use some aersol can bedliner from just about any auto parts, and then paint over it whatever color you want and it looks exactly like mud. I do it on models all the time, but on models it looks really heavy, so it should look just about perfect on there. Might even work with that roll on stuff. |

I've seen 1:1 guys put a note card with paint on it infront of the airbrush the just use the air to blow the paint off of the card. Not sure how it would work on a smaller scale.

If you have an airbrush take the brown paint and put it in the gun, turn the pressure way up and set it to make a large stream. It should clump as is sprays. Play with the gun til you like the texture and then hit your rig. may want to make the paint a little watery and blow across it to make it flow like it was flung there and is running back down

| http://www.rustall.com/ you can use this to replicate mud and/or rust. I havent tried it yet but have seen great results and plan on getting some myself.
