Ive been asked how I do some of my weathering...

here's the process for the brake drums that can be applied to any item you would like to appear rusty. 

This is just a process that works for me. Im not saying its the right way..but the most important thing is just try, experiment and most of all, have fun! :-)

 

Paint the item Flat Brown..I use Tamiya Xf-10 Flat Browm

Then I use a darker Brown, Tamiya XF-64 Red brown. i apply to the brush and then wipe off 95 % on a rag until the brush is virtually dry.

then mix up a weathering powder mixed with Tamiya acrylic thinners

its pretty easy..just take your time ..and if you dont like it..strip it off and start again..( Ive done many times) !! :-)

 

 

 

 

cheers
