they all have their advantages and disadvantages.

powders are quicker and do look better but aren\'t as resilient a paint from wear and tear on gaming pieces.

actual rust sets (where you oxidise metal particles) also look good.

it\'s down to personal preferance at the end of the day.

Despite how that kind of answer appears it was intended to be helpful since it is neither or both, depending (bearing in mind generulpoleaxe\'s answer was already posted).

Ever since I bought some MIG\'s iv used them on every mini I have painted (or at least started painting) in one way or another.
They really are great!

Thats about MIG filters, but you can get MIG powders. Just powder pigment.
A shop near me sells them in packs, fresh mud/dirt and rust/smoke and a few others. Really handy.

Ditto on the pastels. Tried it out as soon as I was given the tip and loved the result. IMO it gives the rust and/or weathering a very rich look that I can\'t get as well with just paints.
Best part is if you dont like it you have only spent a few cents on a soft pastel stick. Really depends on the look you are after.
