Yay! I started watching and the thumbs up was at 199 so now I am 200 thumbs up that’s awesome! Great tips by the way top-notch just getting back to modeling after 43 years off could use a lot of help! You guys have so much nice stuff now that I never had. I know I know walked to school both ways uphill in a snowstorm. But this has come along way! Awesome!
Lovely, I want to build an old truck with platina as well. Love those. Would it be possible to sand it with fine grit at the end to give a more down to scale roughness of the surface. I know rust make the surface rough on this panels, but I think it could be a bit smoother for a more realistic look..
How do you "blend it in" you kept removing it from view and not showing how to do that. I am not a painter, you can't just assume everyone knows how to do that when you don't show it.
The paint colors don't need to be specific. Some earth tones and maybe some orange and yellow for lighter rust color. Darker rust looks older and lighter rust looks most recent in my opinion. Expirement with colors and textures because the acrylic hobby paints are cheap enough.
This is true but alot of people don’t/won’t spend the extra money on them and want a cheaper alternative. I use a mix of both on small projects I use rust tone paints but if I’m doing a big job I’ll just use this method.
@@CustomScaleModels Buying several bottles of different color paint and mixing it to get rust color.. is not cheaper than buying v one bottle of rust color paint
The colors are. Espresso bean. Earth brown. Caramel. Moccasin brown. Rich brown. Pumpkin orange. This was my first video so I really didn’t know what I was doing.
You can blend by dabbing with a sponge the same way he is applying the paint, try a separate dry sponge or you can dampen it a little with water. You will get a different look with each of those
Seems like there was too many paint layers. Use different colors at the same application time. I've done it in 3, and I did used the cheap paints. 1st, base coat. 2nd , brown, black and yellow, (+ more). 3rd, rust color of your choice, ie, orange , turquoise, light green, white etc. You need to blend multi-colors to get that real weather effect.
Nice, but it would have been much more instructive if you had shown HOW you blend the colors, instead of doing it off camera! Seems like that is a crucial part of the process...
I did do it on a 50s Chevy truck but never made a video of it. I’ve been thinking about doing a whole rusted build since my skills have became better. This was the first time I ever did it.

Nice, very nice! 🔥🔥🔥 thank you. I enjoy this method of painting it gives the casting a personality
Definitely need to try this. Thanks for sharing !
Thanks for watching 👍 I hope it turns out great
Great! I like the simplicity of application. Will try this technique on my RC truck..
I hope it turns out great! 👍
@@CustomScaleModels Me too... LOL!!

Can’t wait to try this on my next model!
Awesome video!!
Paige Williams glad you liked it!!

A wet brush or sponge will blend nicely ;)
Just dab dab with sponge
Rub it with your finger duh...🤦🏻♂️
I assumed he was putting it in his mouth. It's been working fine for me.....
That looks really good 👍
Thank you!
Nice results. Will try this on my next project. 1/25 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona kit by Pro Modeler.
Awesome! 👍 I hope it turns out great for you. Thank you for watching!
Could you post a list of the colors please.
They were hard to read in video
Yeah I need a list to start also
Espresso brown
Earth brown
Caramel
Moccasin brown
Rich brown
Orange pumpkin
Flamingo red

What are you doing to "blend it in" when you move the stick off camera?
He's just lightly sponging the entire piece to blend..
Or he's rubbing it with his finger.
How are you blending it in??
My exact question.
"Under $5!"
Wips out a bunch of bottles of paint all worth over 3 quid each here😂
For real though very nice technique✌🏼🙌🏼
😂 here in the states each one of theses craft paint bottles cost $0.65 cents each
I like using this technique for rust under a salt and spray paint method.
Awesome....❤
A little trick to get really good close up shots. Take a photo with a real camera and insert it into the video. You can really show the detail.
Thx from Germany!
Thanks for the support 👍
Or just buy various rust tone paints and weathering powders to save you time with same results.

But rust isn't a single tone, and he's using some of the cheapest paint you can buy.
@@DroneLifeRC you should checkout the local Kraft store and see howmuch these bottles cost. There usually less then 2 dollars a piece
Excelente técnica
Thanks for watching! Hopefully it helped you.
Love the technique, but couldn’t see all the name of the colors you list them please? Thx.
The colors are.
Espresso bean.
Earth brown.
Caramel.
Moccasin brown.
Rich brown.
Pumpkin orange.
This was my first video so I really didn’t know what I was doing.
And flamingo red
Why not get one bottle of rust color paint.
I found some at Hobby Lobby
This was my first video and I was only modeling for like 2 weeks at this point. So I didn’t know much. Now I have the rust colors and pigments
How to blend ? i dont get it
When you say "Blend it in", how do you do it? Sorry newbie here and your video is really helpful :)
You can blend by dabbing with a sponge the same way he is applying the paint, try a separate dry sponge or you can dampen it a little with water. You will get a different look with each of those
I know he says blend it and he takes it out of the frame. Great video 🥴

Dang ! My Auto must not be working ! I got nothing
what's that mean (Auto not working?
Would have been more helpful if you showed the “blend it in” parts. Thanks for the video though .
Where is full vedio of truck
I built that truck before I started making videos. So it never got filmed.
@@CustomScaleModels ok np I have tried and I got result thatks for shared vedio keep sharing
Nice, but it would have been much more instructive if you had shown HOW you blend the colors, instead of doing it off camera! Seems like that is a crucial part of the process...
I noticed that after I made the video and I agree but This is my first video so it was a learning process for me. But they will get better.
Custom Scale Models what did you use to blend it?
I just dabbed most of the paint off of the sponge and used that.
why on a dark piece
It also works on a light piece
Very good how to tuturiol thanks for sharing iv subbed to ur channel from my channel for the support great video my friend,, Keith 👍
Thanks! I appreciate the support! I’ll check your channel out as well
Thanks bro keep up the good work 👍
Itd be a lot more entertaining if you did it on an actual model
I did do it on a 50s Chevy truck but never made a video of it. I’ve been thinking about doing a whole rusted build since my skills have became better. This was the first time I ever did it.
what do you think he was holding in his hand 😂
@@ConditionZero76 A piece of wood
It wasn’t a piece of wood lol
Or a bigger strip of paperboard. Made it almost impossible to pick up the tone after each application. Way too small.
