Faux Rust and Chipped Paint 

This is my third try at painting a rust effect on a 1:12 scale door for a diorama.

Amazing! Thank you for showing us!

My favorite is the third one, I think it looks more realistic.

Love it , I will give this a try on a Guitar that i am doing for a client

Yes the gray primer looked the best it had more contrast I have a similar project same colors and I'm looking for the same texture to make it look realistic thanks for sharing your different steps involved in a nice rustic finish. God-bless.

Very cool!

Thank you for demonstrating your experimental work .....as a lover of industrial work effects old metal ....wood....ceramics and distressed looks this is very helpful I just❤ it.......and will try a few of your methods .....hugs from Scotland 🤗

This is really great. This technique makes me rich.　Thank you ！！！Thank you from Japan

I love it.

Peanut butter. Never saw that coming. Did you put a sealant over top? The paints you are using; are they acrylics or solvent based? That gray slight edge is perfect!
