Expert on weathering
 

Thought I would share this guy's talent. He does unbelievable weathering work on his static models. Search for his other builds; you won't be disappointed.

Wow, that's amazing. That guy definitely has some great skills. The rust looks so real, and the peeling paint....sheash! Nailed the look I'd say. Cracked glass and all.

I often thought that my RC trucks would look a heck of a lot more realistic with some weathering. It's real, real hard to start messing with that perfect paint job you tried so hard to achieve!

Yup ..gotta say that does look pretty realistic..My thoughts though for these R/C models I like to do it the natural way..like Joe Murray does it (little giants) oil and dirt mixed looks pretty real to me ..I know we wont ever acheive that rust look because most are built from aluminum but we can still get them pretty dirty .Have a look at the rear mudflaps on robs FWD ..this truck has probably hauled 300 - 400 + loads ..Rob works the snott out of this truck..well built good truck Rob
