The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

Hey guys,

Working on an Army of Two costume and I need to make the Tactical vests look used and beaten.

Any one got any good methods of weathering?

Many thanks!

If it'll fit, put it in a bag with some rocks/soil and shake it up. Or just wear it 24/7 :)

One method I would do was drag it behind my car/bike on a dirt road d:
If you want "weathering" you can control better- rocks, a piece of concrete, and steel wool are very helpful

One thing one of my old friends did was stick whatever he wanted to weather in a barrel of sand and small rocks and just roll it down a hill or street a few times, it seemed to work well.
