I would recommend putting the silver on before the rust colors. Rust is always on top of steel, not steel on top of rust. Otherwise, looks fantastic.

The highlights are the high spots, where you would have wear points, so it's the best technique to make the effect believable. I do think your point is fair, but it's a lot cheaper to paint something with cheap rust colored spray paint than the other way around.

@@ZombieHaunter408 TRUE Rust does Not have Highlights... at all.

@@judichristopher4604 You're right. If you scraped rust off thought, you'd see bare metal. That's intended effect.

BEAUTIFUL...

Tealeaves and porridge oats make great substitute's if you can get a hold of sawdust! Also used coffee granules from COSTA, they give away their used granules!

Suggestions on how to make aluminum look rusted?

[@miomine3527]

You gave me an idea for the texture what about drywall texture in a can or stucco texture..

[@ZombieHaunter408]

Drywall texture would be great if it's indoors, or you could seal it. Stucco texture is probably even better and would weather the elements better outside. Great ideas!

Very nice!! Attention to detail sets you apart.

Very good obviously looks amazing I just thought maybe a little less silver great job man

[@ZombieHaunter408]

Ordinarily I would agree with you, but for dark scenes, you want highlights exaggerated otherwise they won’t show up at night. Great point for general, realistic painting though. I talk about the importance of bright contrast when doing haunted houses etc. in a lot of my videos.
