Thanks. Found Night Shift's vids on YouTube and applied some of his techniques to do the chipping. The lighter chips (lighter green than the base coat) are done with a sponge for randomness and then the darker centers are added to the lighter chips. I think I used a rusty looking brown color for the bigger chips (simulation of the ones that go all the way through the paint).
