Title: Just add rust
Post by: Les Tindall on May 06, 2019, 12:10:53 PM
Love rust, especially using the Bragdon Powders.  Before and after photos attached of a 16mm scale boiler for a 2ft derelict Kerr Stuart "Wren" class loco built in styrene.  The powders were added while a coat of rust coloured paint was still wet to give it texture, then some light passes with rail track brown powder afterwards.

Looks like it's been lying at the bottom of a lake for 70 years! -- Russ
