Hiya\'s , I was wondering on how to paint this type of effect , it is NMM on a sword , but its the way it is faded in from top to bottom , an example I was just looking at is here http://www.coolminiornot.com/?id=46002 the bottom right photograph is the best example , see how it fades in from the white to the grey , that is the technique I am looking to try , could anyone give me any pointers . Cheers
