<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Hi Neil,
I Didn't realise that they were gypsum bases - this will make potential distressing of them far easier.

Hi Dave,
I have to be honest here and say that I don't know for a fact (e.g. I didn't read this on their website) that they are gypsum based however the way that they are weathering is identical to the Gyprock plasterboard medium that I use for modelling stone and brick which is a high gypsum content. When I say identical I really do mean identical. I would be very surprised if it isn't.
The bottom picture in the first post has exactly the same effect that I get with the Gyprock plasterboard. It draws the washes into it and leaves a hint of white at the surface.
