Has anyone got any tips on painting metal to make it look grimy and rusty- I'm doing a few Necromunda bits and pieces, and they all look a little 'brand new' at the moment, so I need a few tips to give them that ancient, decaying feel...
-Any help much appreciated!

Snakebite leather Chaos black mixed in different quantities and consistences (generally thinned down. Takes a bit of practice but I really like the result.
Cheers

try pastel chalks sometime. ?you can get them in earth tones. ?you just scrape a bit off of the chalkstick drybrush the powder on with a soft brush and sealcote.
I used this technique on this 1/35 stuart. ?(ok it doesn't show up well in the pic but looks great in real life.)
you use this technique to do dust, rust, grime, powder flash, just about any untidy thing you want to put on your model.

..Yeah, another excellent suggestion- I was reading an old WD article a week or so ago with a DA predator, heavily converted, that used this dusting technique to add realism- looked great...

1/35 or 6mm? I've got stuff from 1/6 to 1/1200. Though I thinned my model collection out this summer, so pickings are thin.
