Hello scale model addicts!
I can't find a thread "First tries", so I post my first weathering project here.
I choose the Sea Gallery because even if it can't swim, it still belongs to a ship somehow

It was primed with Stynylrez and airbrushed with a variation of Vallejo Air rust colours. Then sprayed with a chipping medium and coated with the base colour (also Vallejo Air). After applying the decals and hammering them down with setting solution, the chipping process started. I used a toothbrush, toothpicks and old brushes. I also used some additional rust colours and various rust pigments to get a little bit more 3D look. At the end, I've applied a coat of Vallejo Acrylic matt varnish.
Took some time to try out several techniques for the chipping. I'm quite happy with the result.
