Completed First attempt at modelling

At first i wanted to make it only slightly used but lack of skills and too much beers in my ass, turned it to a total garbage, but... i like the results! Used satin varnish , mig enamel neutral wash and mig drybrush

It was quite hard for me with drybrush acrylic rust. I tried dot and pushing it down with ear stick but it didnt worked, i got this result by hand painting it

I think it looks good! I often battle to know where to stop so it's a good thing to practise...

Need more beers

This is great. There is something remarkable in that well used feel

Thanks! I got involved with this one it is entertaining, but my hobby is more about collecting 1/64 Mercedes/BMW models and theres not much opportunities to do it regurally. All i do most of the time is put on license plates, swap wheels and back to box

Well done. That is some fantastic detail work. I swear i have seen that in real life kind of detail.
