Starting out as an experiment in 'rust', I finally finished this working truck this week.
Another model to tick off my unfinished list !

That is a fine looking rusty truck. Nice work. The load of oil drums is perfect for it. NICE!!!!

Thanks all...
I stippled the various rust coloured paint on with a brush,
then oversprayed with the top colour,
- and simply sanded it off with 1200 wet and dry, John.
