    I love the tiny black spots all over. Looks like you would expect on a car that's been painted several times and then sat in a junkyard for 50 years!

    Great technique. You can also add bubbling rust by sprinkling fine stone powder where rust would be bad like door corners and dabbing it with rust coloured paint.

    Have you ever tried using Hairspray or Chipping Fluid? It would make the weathering a lot easier by requiring less sanding to break through the layers.
    You just black base it as usual then spray it with Chipping Fluid or Hairspray, then paint it as usual and when it's time to weather it lightly wet sand it, the water will help loosen the Chipping medium and reveal the layers.
    I really like this resin cast body, it's the trunk/rear quarter panels that make it. 👍👍

      @TheUncleRuckus Год назад +1

      Forgot to mention that after you've sanded it to where you like it to seal it with a matte varnish/sealer before doing your final weathering or else you could expose more of the chipping medium to moisture and it will expose more of the layers than you may want. 👌

    3 coats Light Metal Grey, 2 light Coats Off White, then 2 coats there on of the Paint job History of Your Choice. Vary the Grit usage spiratically once it loiks knackered use an M3 buff Pad to blend the Grit varient and then use a Spray Bottle to apply dirty Water colour. Once dried keep Layering till the weathering is where Your at. Quick Buff pad again and then Matte Clear coat. Optional when the Clear coat is Tacky throw some Mixed Yellow, Red, and Multi Brown Pastel dust at it to give Live Dirt effect. Looks EPIC when done. Clear coat between Dusting Layers so if Ya like a Previous part and think youve wrecked it You can buff it out

    Newbie here, I'm planning to make some 1/64th scale 30's car fur my brothers railroad layout. Will this work will on a black car. A lot of the cars in the 30's are black. Seen some great photos on google. Currently the die cast is white, going to strip it down to bear metal.
    Thanks for the great video and your techniques

      It acts a little different on black paint. I have a build coming up the first of the year that I do in black that may help. But even just the rust streaks over a matte or satin black really gives it the right look, and I imagine at that scale car it would look great.

  • @JoeChadburn702

    I actually mean "Off" white. Years ago Pure White was concidered a Premium Color for finish so it was More of a Creamy White Primer.

    Man you e inspired me to try to weather or patina my first hard body. I applied the fist layer of black waited 5 hours and did next color or flat brick red. My question is how long do I wait to do a wet sand to bring the black through before I apply final color? I know temp and humidity play a toll in cute time but kinda just looking for a ball park idea so I don’t screw this up. Love your work and hope to get to your level one day.

    • @RCeveryday
      @RCeveryday  22 дня назад +1

      The longer you can wait the better, I still rush everything to a fault. At least overnight should be plenty. The good thing about patina is its really hard to mess up. Once you start wetsanding youll know if it is dry enough, if it needs more time it will gum up the sandpaper still. It all depends on how thick a coat you applied as well. Just remember, no stress, its not shiny! Have fun with it and once you get to the final color for sanding, less is more is the absolute best advice.

      The ak rust streaks. A lot of hobbytowns sell it but it’s on amazon as well. Just be careful if you are using rustoleum paint. I use a vht high temp satin clear once I’ve sanded everything to seal it. The rust streaks will strip the rustoleum right off without it. It’s available at autozone and oreillys. Discovered it by accident and it has really improved the finish a ton. Adds depth to the color while protecting the paint from the streaks.

    Would this work on the standard Lexan RC body or is it to flimsy and just chip off?

    • @RCeveryday
      @RCeveryday  3 дня назад +1

      It could, for lexan you have to scuff the outside of the body very good to get paint to attach. Check out my videos on the redcat hauler, I repainted all the lexan on the outside and weathered it.

      @RCeveryday  6 месяцев назад +1

      Tamiya paints are very fine spraying and very durable. If you are going to do a patina style paint job I wouldnt. The few times I tried it doesnt sand through easily enough. Going shiny or solid color tamiya all the way

      @@RCeveryday I’m planning to do the pizza planet truck from Toy Story which would require a weathered yellow color with rust and dents. Would that be considered patina? If so what kind of paint do you use? Up until now I’m only familiar with lexan bodies so pardon my ignorance

    • @RCeveryday
      @RCeveryday  6 месяцев назад +1

      Rust and dents would be patina. Most of what I have done is a bit more extreme patina compared to the pizza planet truck. There are a ton of great videos on faded and peeling paint effects from the model railroaders on youtube. Chipping fluid and or the hair spray effect would fit the bill. Ive not done any of that yet, but some great videos on it out there.

      I’ve started using the vht flame proof matte clear on all of mine before the rust streaks. Seals it and adds some depth. Allows you more time to adjust the rust to your liking too.
