Nicely done. How many years worth of weathering did you model? (Date built to your modeled time frame.)

That looks really great! Any tips on how you did the work? I have had several people ask me how I do it or what I use to do it, like they are looking for just one answer. The truth is its a combination of a lot of different things. I use oils, acrylics, powders and even hair spray. There are also different ways to apply the material. In the top photo with the concetration of rust spots, that was done with a sponge. I applied model master burnt umber to a small piece of sponge and lightly touching the car leaves random spots of rust in different sizes. p |
