Thanks my friend.I thought I was finished with it today.I took some pix,and I need to dirty it up some more.It is odd how the camera will points out what the human eye misses.

everyone!

My apologies once again for my absence...

I've been out of town for the weekend...and have been on the run since my return...

A couple of interviews...time with the family...etc., has certainly limited my forum time.

Had a great weekend at Bella's Bash in OH...met some amazing people from the forum...and certainly wish ya'll had the opportunity to come to the event....

I'm sorry I missed the Armada playlist evening...but I did hear it in the archives!

I'm certainly blessed to be a part of this.

I'll talk to everyone sometime very soon...

Yes, Zod, I've had the same experience with photos, they show more than you can see with the unaided eye. 😀 😛

Its always good to have a paint of photo program to edit things from the camera. 😀 😛

Very^9999999999999999 true my friend But in this case,I saw some spots that need a wee bit more dirt 😀 😛

 

[milagros317]

Dirt is easy to find. Applying just enough of it might be harder. 😀 😛

They make a variety of filters to do just that. Many companies have them most work in a variety of paint programs. 😀

I have seen some models that have too much dirt,or mud.But then it can be easy to overdue it. Rust can be overdone as well.

What is used to simulate rust on a plastic model? 😀 😛

Yea MS Paint wont do that. Its a really cheap paint program. You need Photoshop Elements or Paint Shop Pro. Something like that. 🙂

I do very little photo editing and have only the utility that came with Windows XP. 😀 😛

I use a product called Rustall.They make a few different products.I just use the red bottle. From experimenting with the red stuff,I found out I can get some realistic rust when I apply it over a dark green color. 😀 😛
