Patterson house rust. All through the property. Inside the wallpaper, layers of it, are hanging off the walls. It was last lived in in 1976 and was condemned as a slum!

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

As described, this lens took a plunge in a French river. Just 1 or 2 seconds in the water was of course enough to ruin it. After 20+ years of storage in the basement, I undertook to disassemble it. One of the most magnificent parts was this rusted (but still working !!) diaphragm.

A few of the rusted relics at Gammons Gulch

Gammons Gulch is a reconstructed old western town created by Jay Gammons. It is a mix of 1880’s to 1930’s early America. The town has been used in movies, commercials and music videos. The movie set has a large collection of antiques, old cars and movie memorabilia. You can get a guided tour of this little town. Jay will tell you the history of just about every item he has collected over the years while creating the town.
