I've started weathering it, in the dio it's going to be one in the process of being restored.

I feel I need to add some more rust but I'm not really wanting it to look really neglected I have a prairie in mind for that I feel at the moment it's not looking very realistic I'm wondering if that's just because it's not in a proper setting.

Ken once you get the scene set then, like you said. That will make it easier for you, to see if you need more rust. But so far brilliant work keepp going. :smiling:
