A quick update for today I have started weathering the trailer a little by giving it a worn metal look. I was after the sort of look old well used tools get like spanners etc not rusted but brown. I think I have pulled it off although the camera makes it look more silver than it does to the naked eye but that could be down to the light. I have binned the red and white banding for over the wheels arches and am in the process of painting them on. I think it will look more realistic if you know what I mean.

Thanks Monica the mix I use is roughly 10% black 60% leather brown and 30% steel. To me it gives a really good worn but used look and is also a great base for starting the rust look as you only need to add more leather brown or a darker one.

real nice work on this one,looking very good, :D

Thanks Monica glad you are enjoying watching it all come together.

Really loving this build post Terry. Just so much work you have done here all in one thread!

Thanks Bob yes there is a lot on this one thread there are a couple of reasons for this.


One I can't be arsed (to lazy) to keep having to open new ones for each element of this dio build. It is easier to have all the elements in one place even if it does look a bit of a mess and is jinking around a lot. There hasn't been much structure to this build from the outset not like previous builds I have done where I knew what I wanted it to look like from the get go. but it will get there.


The second reason is I think if say a tank is for a specific dio then t keeps the site tidier if the build thread is done within the dio thread if that makes sense.

Loving the weathering on the truck Terry looks really good


All round ace job so far 

Thanks Stuart glad you like the look of it.

This looks great. You've got some brilliant greasy / oily effects here.
