Rust Tutrial (1 of 11)
Okay, so here's how I go about rusting stuff. This is neither my best work (the stopping to take photos really threw off my work flow) nor the best choice of subjects. Not sure why I decided rusting a bit of wood was the best idea. But anyway, his should be informative. I usually do a lot more back and forth but I tried to do it step by step this time instead of jumping all over the place so I could document it a bit better.
The are my materials:
two ratty bits of sponge
two old gnarled brushes (one large one small)
a wadded bit of paper towel (or two)
a bowel of baking soda
a bowel of talc
Paints:
black
white
metallic silver
red iron oxide (this is the primary "rust")
antique gold
toffee brown
translucent orange
