@rayzryr Quite simple.

I paint a first coat of dark brown, then I start plotting out my rust patches by using a lighter brown. Don’t thin the paint, use a hard brush, wipe off most of it and stipple it where you want your rust to be. After that, add yellow into the brown and repeat, but with smaller patches. Now drybrush some metal colour (not too bright) sparsely on the rust.

Then block in your main colour by, again, stippling the outlines, then painting in the rest. Don’t be concerned about coverage. After that, use a thinned down brown wash to tie it all together.

At last highlight your main colour by stippling with it along the edges (use a finer, hard brush) and finally put in some white and repeat, with a finer stippled outline. That last step should be contained to upper and side edges.

Have fun!
