Guinness Weathering Guide Comments, your comments/questions/suggestions/tips

yup, ganyan nga komrad alakdan. anong klase ng paint kaya ang magandang gamitin sa metal parts ng cyma ak? and anong color? para sa "rust effect". tnx ulit in advance

dark brown or mahogany will do, komrad. if you're using spray paint, squirt the paint on to a piece of an old newspaper. do it close to the paper so there will be a pool of paint on the paper. dip a cotton bud tip into the pooled paint and brush the tip on your intended rusting surface.

have a rag handy so that you can wipe off any excess. oops, it's actually best to dab off any excess cos wiping can sometimes affect the surrounding area.

experimentation and some patience will give you the proper effect.

after you have achieved what you like, a bit of finishing coat on that area will help to keep the effect more or less permanent.

have fun!

tnx very much for the tip komrad vityaz.

No Problemo, komrad.

and i've used Bosny, RJ, as well as Do It acrylic. they both work well. RJ is cheapest, IIRC.

tnx again komrad. can't wait to try it. hehe
