I have no idea which category this belong, so I posted it, in this forum, as I thought it has more to do with a diorama detail; than anything else. Please feel free to move it, if it doesn't fit the criteria.
This is another weathering test subject. This time a simple hydraulic jack.
What I used to weather:
Tamiya Black Panel Line solution
Tamiya Brown Panel Line solution
Mig Black and Light Rust pigments
Another odd brand Buff/earth pigment I got from a arts and craft hobby store.
An old Mig oil/grease solution.
Then topped it off with a dull spray coat from Winsor & Newton
