The Stompa still wasn’t dirty and battered enough!

I attacked it with some pigments to make it look as though it had some serious rust.

Some old FW pigments.  Are these even still available?Some old FW pigments. Are these even still available?

I used three different rust shades to add some variation.  Firstly, where I wanted big areas of rust, i.e. whole panels, I painted on a thick layer of ‘Ardcoat and then dabbed on a mix of the pigments.

Eventually the brush ended up in such a state that I could simply stipple areas to get patches of lesser rust.

After that I dusted a little of the pigment more or less all over to give a rusty effect.  Much of this will likely run off/down during the varnishing stage so will tone this down a bit.

In some instances I tried to pick areas where water might gather and cause rust but given that this is an Ork contraption made out of scraps I figured that lots of areas would likely be old and rusty.

This was given an almighty shake (it had seperated a lot).

I used this over most of the mechanical areas to add some engine grime, pooled it in areas and used a small amount on a thin brush to streak down some of the panels.  In some instances I flooded areas and allowed the liquid to run down the mini naturally.
