Title: Weathering a bridge with oils, acrylic, and pan pastels.
Post by: Deem on April 02, 2026, 02:58:58 PM
I have had this bridge for years, but never had a place on the layout for it. For now, I will used it to display rolling stock or maybe someday in a diorama. This is my first time experimenting with oils to fade and create rust.

The other side is not complete, I will add some rust and graffiti to it eventually.
