Hello dear friends!

In this video I'm trying to paint weathering and rust effects using a model paint brush. The sponge chipping method will serve as a base layer for a very refined model paint brush technique. This technique aims to add very detailed speckles of rust for an ultra realistic look.

It's a technique that I saw on @NightShiftScaleModels channel. Please check them out, because Martin, who runs this channel, is a pro when it comes to hand painting model kits. Martin, if you read this: thanks for your tutorials, I learned so much from them!
