Can Patina Paint be this easy? - Rusty RC Body

I have always been a poor painter! But I recently wanted to try using Moosejaw's tutorial video to do a patina paint job of my own. I'm doing a Proline Power Wagon cab for one of my rigs and this was a great time to dive in.

PSA: No cans of orange paint were used or harmed in the making of this video! Looks Great!

[@alanq64]

Those crocs though... 😄

[@scalebuildersguild]

I think you did a fine job! And I'm glad to see that you finally painted something on your own. I'll send back the Fijon now.

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

I’m quite happy with where the Fijon is right now 🇺🇸

[@THERCDOCTOR]

Ha

[@hemistormrc]

Hell has frozen over! 🤣🙌🏼

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

I’m more confused than anyone

[@evintacy7272]

Josh you did a great job especially for how bad you talk about your paint jobs,,, it looks awesome 🤩

[@tlheingrunst]

Mighty fine, for an engineer! You did a great job my friend. You stepped out of your comfort zone. Can't wait for the next one.

[@justinmoate3143]

For not being a painter it turned out awesome looks sweet cant wait to try this

[@fernsolo]

I can't believe I'm saying this to you but, great paint job 👍

[@wesmadebuilds681]

You did great on this. If you didn’t know already, hear up the spray cans in hot water to up the pressure and make it dry quicker. Plus the paint will go on much smoother.

[@mickd8188]

Yeah like Wes said,... NOT sitting in front of the heat gun on the bench while you find your tack rag. Ask me how I know. It didn't explode but did pop the seams a bit...lol

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

I did see that in Joes video as well, but I was in a hurry 😁

[@forrestcrabbe]

Look at you learning a new skill. The truck looks awesome, y'all have a badass day 🤘🍻🤘

[@knutroald5332]

And we’ll just put happy little rustspot over here😄

[@Seabass-el2jy]

Nice Josh, for "Not being a painter" you did a great job. Matt will be proud.

[@mickd8188]

Awesome thumbnail, really liked the finished product. Moosejaw inspired me to give it a go aswell. Cool content 👌 Cheers mate 👍

[@vintagerc9173]

Looks great! Practice makes perfect let’s See more paint projects Maybe an Element RC Etco body next. 👍 Moosejaw is a great Teacher! A+ + +

[@jetwaves78]

Well done Josh looks great

[@markwhite8543]

Pretty impressive! A huge step up from a chip brush and can of Orange

[@outcastrc8052]

Wow! I'm humbled in your presence Josh! Who knew that you had these secret talents that have now been revealed!! Well done on the paint scheme!!

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

I think I’ll retire now.

[@Brian_Mowry__BMOW71]

Very impressive! That IS the best paint job to ever roll out of the Harley Paint Shop!! Let me know when you're gonna start doing this full time! I have a body ready to send to you! All kidding aside, it looks great Josh!!

[@44punisherable]

Not too shabby, Looks pretty good!! If there was ever a Dodge nebulae in space, this would be it!

[@johngookinsable]

Looks awesome! Matt will be so proud of you!🤣

[@stevelangley246]

I'm proud of you Josh. I dislike painting more than anything else about this hobby except paying someone else to do it. I discovered patina paint jobs about a year ago and found that I can't screw one up. So I took all of my messed up bodies and did patina on the outside. Success!

[@twisterzman]

You've impressed me yet again! That looks great, Josh! For not painting, you jumped into the deep end trying to pull off a patina job.. and you did very good!

[@davidhazelden2054]

That looks grate for ur first 1 now for more fancy paint jobs lol n I love ur Friday notes it far better with Nicole on ur so funny keep it up m8 👍👍👍👍👍

[@Pluckee13]

Wow. Nice job. You made it look easy.

[@saltpond5381]

Well done. You look pretty happy with the results.

[@Scale-Crawler-Xray-RC]

very nice job , love it

[@rustysglass]

For not being a "painter" I think you did an amazing job!!!

[@hllywd_8315]

Wow very impressive! Looks great good job!!!

[@evintacy7272]

This is going be good! He has put out some amazing paint jobs!! You can do this Josh!

[@cookeemon67]

Everything looked good and I think you did great! The only part that made me cringe was that you didn't put anything down on your deck mate.. at least some cardboard! Lol. Also could you throw a link up to that turbo also? :)

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

I’ll have to find the parts tree. It came on the Axial SCX2 kit.

[@AddamsPlayground]

It looks really cool! Matt better give you some compliments on this effort! I saw zero foam used and the only thing close to orange was the rust! Great job and thanks for recording all that, I know that slowed the whole process down!

[@bigjeep_littlejeep3777]

Very nice! I just did my first weathering on a pw cab also. One thing to check out of you do it again is mechanical pencil on all the body lines adds a noce touch

[@MetalHeadRCGarage]

Wow, impressively done. Great color choices and the finished body looks killer!

[@DrDiff952]

Dang Harley messing around with that giant scale stuff. Love my SCX24 Bronco!

[@adamtebben9512]

Dude this turned out great! I’m impressed.

[@c05sporty]

The Bob Ross thumbnail tho 😂😭 I think it looks killer!

[@jamesbowles4369]

Josh, I always knew you could paint like picasso. Great job and even better video.

[@andrewschultz8982]

You can also use an acrylic clear (Rust-Oleum) to cause the paint to "lift" and flake slightly. Gentle wet sanding will make it look like scale paint peel

[@paulmaigler289]

And now we can call you Josh Ross, or would It be Bob Thiede….. I’ll let you decide 🤣🤣 Just you attempting the process impressed me and it came out really well double win!!!!

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

I think we just shorten it to Job.

[@jdsrcs8061]

Dang Harley!!!! That came out great. I might even consider trying this as well. 🤘🤘🤘

[@aegixxer1]

Turned out great! Those Tamiya weathering kits are awesome. You're better off ditching the applicator they come with and pick up a makeup sponge variety pack.

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

I’ll just go steal Nicole’s!

[@Random4RC]

After watching Moosejaw's video I gave the salt trick a try. I bought both sea salt and kosher salt to test with and liked the results with kosher much better. Made the rust spots look flakier

[@westdesertwheeler2666]

Certainly looks good enough to go beat on the rocks! (That’s a compliment) as I mentioned before none of my paint jobs are perfect and it’s just proof that I did it! Cool video Josh.

[@ninotocka]

Neat. I might just take some time and effort on my next body! Well done!

[@greggmundkowsky5798]

The only thing I noticed was your coverage was a little off, I could still see wood on the work bench, but the body looks great

[@crawlersncustoms]

I dig it! Nice work. I’m not a painter either and patina scares me but if you’re willing to give it a go it gives me hope. I’ve got the CCW carbon PW, might need to dress it down with some rust. Rusty carbon.

[@timvoght4866]

I would say your a painter now! LOOKS AWESOME

[@rcmadnessminitruckclub]

Looks good. Thank you for the idea.

[@66blitzer]

You might not fancy yourself a painter….. but damn you’re a fancy painter!

[@66blitzer]

I mean .…French Blue, Oooh la la

[@jerryvolpini7987]

Pretty damn good and it was all you! 👍 A lot of these techniques come from the scale model world. I have also used liquid mask, applied with a sponge, and it gives a little bit more control on where you apply the chipping/rusting effects. I also use a technique with hairspray(!) that gives amazing results.

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

Yeah an unlimited number of techniques to learn… but I doubt I’ll do any more! 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@Evan_Moore61]

If Josh can make a patina body look good, then anybody can. I guess I have no excuse not to do it now.

[@rcdrives3882]

That looks awesome, Josh! Good job, man! :)

[@CoachD386]

Very impressive their sir 👍🏾💯it’s the orange crocs for me lol

[@alanq64]

I think it looks pretty good. Do an acrylic black wash over the body and it'll bring out more details. 👍👍

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

I’m sure there are a million more techniques but I’m already probably not doing another 😁

[@alanq64]

@@HarleyDesignsInc Wish I was that self aware. haha

[@joeyfloyd6534]

Nice job Josh!

[@scottoblander9419]

This is great content Josh. I’ve wanted to try the salt method, I even watched Joe’s tutorial, but was always hesitant as I’m more mechanically/electronically inclined. I’m encouraged to try now. I have an origin body I’m going to use.

[@ConsciousnessAndScience]

you did a damn good job brother

[@da_rc_garage7148]

Awesome work Josh!!

[@adamhirerc78]

Looks great josh ,nice job

[@travm3113]

Looks great mate, well done 👍

[@fdougwillman132]

I apologize for thinking your IG post about this was a joke. You’re on the right path with Moosejaw.

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

It was absolutely meant to be taken as a joke! This is definitely not a tutorial.

[@quintonkarlik2148]

Looks good, a rusty sun visor would look good on it

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

I beat on this truck too hard for that! 😁

[@vincehatina6987]

That came out AWESOME!!!

[@hermanwu4792]

It looks awesome

[@MandaPii_]

[@RIdeWerksInc]

Wow.. it looks really good. I like it.

[@Spor777]

Looks great.

[@SlooDon]

OK Josh……color me impressed! Nice job!

[@-Gerald-]

If JConcepts bodies came pre-painted... MooseJaw is a great teacher, but he can't teach them all. Just kidding, It looks great. I especially like the exhaust soot. Nice touch.

[@ProudMomOfRCRacers]

That looks absolutely amazing!!!

[@davidtodd3435]

That turned out really nice!

[@ScaleCustomCrawlers-SCC]

Nice work Josh!!!

[@fredsmith-dengler9225]

Nice job, looks great! “LOOK MA, NO CHIP BRUSH!”

[@adamrodgers2377]

I think it looks good and it has motivated me to paint my next Trail Truck Body similar to yours.

[@Basshertz13]

I am really glad to see that you can now start your own patina channel if moosejaw needs your help I actually think it looks great man way to go Josh

[@officialnolimitcrew8960]

[@5tbadger]

Friggin awesome dude, excellent vid 🤙🤙

[@674tonythompson]

[@rossgross7497]

[@JPGrc]

Looks very cool 👍 And seems to be simple 😉 but I think it is not Cheers from Poland 🇵🇱

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

It was easier than I imagined.

[@larrybarnhart7532]
