Rusting a HO Scale Car into a Junkyard Heap with AK Interactive Rust Deposits & Corrosion Texture

[@georgebernard8983]

I just used this method on a set of 1/35 scale tank tracks which are going on a derelict Tiger 1, came out very nice! Thanks for sharing your secret brew!

Good information , I am currently building a 1/64 scale junkyard . Very cool work and direction. Mike Espo.

Very nice! I am working on a small model at about 1/88 scale with lots of detail. I've never "weathered" or "Distressed" a model before so I need to practice. I have a bunch of HO scale cars for another project but I see no reason not to use those for practice. This will work very nice because I have a friend who has an HO train setup and he needs a realistic looking "Junkyard" VERY badly ;) Thanks much for your video as you cover weathering at this small scale!

Thanks for this. I have these products coming so am looking of ideas of my models/ KZbin channel.

What brand weathering chalks are you using?

[@churchofsolipsism2716]

Nice work, thanks. Another question though: do you seal in the rust colour, and if so, how? This is obviously more relevant for miniature wargamers than for diorama builders...

Heavy coat of clear coat would probably do the job

[@churchofsolipsism2716]

@@jameschambers9312 Mh... my problem with varnish is that no matter which one you use (matt, gloss, semi-gloss etc.) it always changes the the look of the varnished surface, which might be especially relevant for rust, which has a very particular look. Same problem with metallic surfaces. Not varnishing is not really an option if you regularly use minis in games.

[@churchofsolipsism2716]

@@jameschambers9312 Thing is, I've tried different varnishes (gloss, silk, matte) for metallic surfaces, and all of them significantly alter their look. Same goes for rust, without varnish is has that fantastic authentic quality that I'd like to preserve.

I feel like your contrast is up increadibly high, I'm following along and my results at each stage are a lot darker than yours.
