10KPete - my apologies - I overlooked your question on the cast effect. It was produced by using a couple of different carbide rotary burrs in a Proxon hand power tool. I just let the burr, running at about 6-8000 rpm bounce across the surface as opposed to trying to remove metal. I'll take a pic of what I used later for you.

Just tried your texturing technique on some brass and steel scraps, using my proxxon rotary tool and a small ball end bur - looks fantastic! With a medium speed and a tapping motion, it gives a great random pattern. Also tried a little wash of thinned paint like you suggest, gives it a nice depth.Thanks for the great tips!!
