what did you do to paint/weather your masterpeice?
Most of my weathering is done with acrylics.This one was done with repeated washes of burnt umber,rust red,Terra Cotta,and apricot.
I have a small plastic jar I keep brush cleaning water in and after awhile it makes a pretty good paint .I dip the brush in the water then dab it into a puddle of paint then spread it on the car.I will wait a few seconds for the paint to start to dry then wipe the car side vertically with a paper towel.

I knew you would get around to replying sooner or later so no big deal
That type of weathering sounds interesting. I'll give it a try sometime and let you know the outcome
Again, nice job
