I didn't get as much bench time as I had hoped. But I made up for it today.

The following pics show the steps in the painting so far.After the base rust color was applied, I then gave the model a couple of light coats of flat clear enamel to protect the rust base from the HS chipping. Once dry I then applied the HS in light layers.

The chassis will get chipped and rusted using the sponge tech and small brush. The reason for this is that there aren't many areas that can be chipped without knocking off parts. I also applied a couple of light pin washes to bring out details and aid in the rusting and weathering.

So here is where she stands at the moment.

Still a lot more to do.
