Scrap 'tire' Container Haul

[tiking]

The container is supposed to be filled to the brim with scrap tires but I did not have sufficient to achieve this. So I am waiting to get my hands on some. A little more toning the weathering on the container, behind the cab, and minute detailing and it is done.

This is the container that inspired me:

HA! check out the little Michelin man riding on the bumper.

Great weathering, very realistic.

That is hands down some of the best rust and grime I've ever seen on a scale model, anywhere.

The chipped paint on the rims, the wiped oil off the rear box as well as the rust under paint is astounding.

I have been awed by your art for a few years. It is really special stuff and I wish you could do some instruction on how to weather like that.

Falls somewhere between modelling and art, simple as that. Fantastic, simply fantastic.

Thank you kindly for those words. The process is so simple. I will try and do a video on just the rims to show how easy it is. It's just a matter of getting the right amount of color combination and blend it in.
