I really want a lot of my scenery to have a heavily rusted dirty appearance so i decided to try a little experiment using artist medium, iron powder and humbrol weathering powders (iron oxide and rust).

The base components to my rust paint mixture.The base components to my rust paint mixture.
When applied in thick layers the iron powder and weathering powders build up a rough texture and when dry the paint has a slightly powdery look.When applied in thick layers the iron powder and weathering powders build up a rough texture and when dry the paint has a slightly powdery look.
Another thing about iron powder, it oxidised incredibly fast. Mixing some iron powder with some PVA glue and water makes a decent fine texture paste which starts to take on a natural rusty look within hours of application.Another thing about iron powder, it oxidised incredibly fast.

On the picture above the rust paint has been applied to the pipe and the iron powder and glue mix has been applied round the base, after drybrushing with a light silver the texture stands out and gives the same effect as the typhus corrosion technical paint.On the picture above the rust paint has been applied to the pipe and the iron powder and glue mix has been applied round the base, after drybrushing with a light silver the texture stands out and gives the same effect as the typhus corrosion technical paint.
