I'm going Japanese

Change of plan? Looks good.

not really, This is the first layer. Will scrub it down to rust then the layer the US Army would have painted.

Look at the original, to me, that's what it looks like. OK maybe not this yellow band camo scheme but it looks like there's a top coat over the original.

What did you put over the rust layer to release this layer of paints? :coolio

Just realized I haven't posted the chipped pictures.

Haven't had time nor motivation to get to the bench in the last week. Had a really bad dentist appointment, let's just leave it at that.

so what do y'all think I need to do next?

Yep

I would do different tones of rust washes too, like water has been sitting on it. (puddles dried up)

First day of Vacation...spent half of it in dentist chair.



I did get motivated and got some work done.

Dark rust wash over the entire thing..

Think I'll do a light rust wash around the edges and thin spots.

Some progress on the tracks.
