I have been faffing in doing rusting techniques using pigments and decided to use it on a Universal Carrier. The model has been battle damaged, stripped of some equipment and then left. The model is portraying the vehicle after a few years.

Faffing, faffing - thats not faffing - thats brilliant - a true Genius - missed this, if the photo had a blurred background, you would not have been able to tell if it was real or not - well done.

You know, that is a funny you mentioning that. One of the pictures I found and used for inspiration was a UC in the outback, a right rust bucket indeed.

I actually did a search of rusted outback carrier images, as after the war, they were disposed of to farmers/graziers who eventually left them to rust away.
 
As someone has mentioned, apply some background and you wouldn't know the difference, well done.

In fact if you went one step further and used another landscape picture behind you scene, either on a mounted card or photo shop it, it would look real.
