wood color paint?

[Renelsisc]

Hey guys,

I'm trying to paint an interior of a car in a "wood grain" colour. Know anything that i can use to get that affect?

Thanks

The way I've done woodgrain before is to paint a layer of Tamiya "flat earth" and drybrushed some "buff" over the top (You don't have to use Tamiya paints, any medium brown/light brown will work, those are simply what I chose). It looks OK, but I'm sure there are other ways of doing it.

yup, or in general, one lighter colour, and dry brush the darker colour on top. I did the wood grain on these:





Using Testors flat interior tan, and then drybrushed Humbrol rust brown over top.

sorry, newbie question is, but what exactly IS dry brush?

you dip the brush in the paint, then wipe most of it off on a piece of paper or something, so that you're left with a small amount of dry/tacky paint on the brush.
