Weathering and Dirt stains

[Sgt.Crocodile 0]

I want to make some real effects on the skins and weapons too, like weathering and dirt stains.

Do you fellas have any good photoshop tips?

Thanks a lot.....

youre the expert here compared to me but one tip I learned from COCO (DTD mod team) was the use of the 'Burn" tool., I use it for dirt stains and it works well enough for me.

I have a magazine on 3d graphics, that talks about photoshop dirt stains... It says to use photos of dirt (or whatever) and make masks for applying it on to your texture, using layers... I think...
