Well I didn't get the decent camera out but these shots are still ok. Starting with stuff at work and then moving onto the harbour just around the corner. I took these today before the rain started, it's fine looking at other peoples work and reference pics, but nothing beats actually going out and finding some really weathered things in the real world. I suppose I'm lucky in that respect because of where I live and what I do, but it really helps understanding the weathering process when you can see it in person and actually run your hand across it:

These could quite possibly be WW2 Tank tracks, we use them a lot to pull Caravans over them. They were purchased years ago at a farm sale I believe

Also used a lot, notice how 'BROWN' the chain is.

The next two are just out of interest really, story goes that this is a ww2 boat that could fire torpedos and had 2 rolls royce engines in it. It's layed there for a slong as I can remember and has become part of the scenery. If anyone knows what boat it is and even better if it can be purchased in a kit I'd love to try it out!

Hope all these pics can help someone.
