DecoArt has a new textured paint that goes on smooth but when heated “blooms”. Aside from the obvious moss, vines etc., maybe rivets, weld lines or simulate expanded foam?
Cool. Likely discovered by mistake when a paint formula failed by bubbling under high heat conditions! I think my wife needs this in her paint collection.
That texture reminds me of the insulated covered hoppers the NP built for potatoes.

I use this stuff when I need a texture.
It’s on the roof of this car. Then you can paint over it the color of your choice.
