Cheers buddy and here is the completeion of the rust for the pipes.

Pic 1, 2 & 3 - the pipes were given a drybrush mix of Vallejo Gunmetal and Hull Red and then once dry I used the brown/orange pastel chalk and dapped it over the pipes. I then mixed Vallejo Gunmetal and GW Blazing Orange and then dapped that over the pastel chalk I previously applied.

That ends the pipes up next will be the weapons storage racks.

Hi All,

Spry & Mando - Cheers guys and again glad you are ejoying the tutorial.

I have another update after a few days of sitting back and placing weapons brackets and shelves all over the place and I came to the conclusion that having lost that extra 4 inches of space my amoury wasn't going to happen.

So looking at the dio I decided that I would make it into a back street warehouse sought of area.

Pic 1, 2 & 3 - I have added a shade cloth on the far right by using dowel and some left over cloth I picked up at the local craft shop. The cloth attached to the rod using PAV glue and while it was drying I used watered down cloth glue and covered the cloth with the cloth glue.

The watered down cloth glue was used to strengthen the cloth and also as it was drying it allowed me shape the cloth to have a natural sit.  Once the glue completely dried I then gave the cloth a wash of dark sand and biege brown and I will let that dry then drybrush it to weather more.

Ron

Hi All

Once I decided that the dio was going to be back street/warehouse type scene I thought to myself I need cargo containers, so after some hard thinking and throwing down a can of pepsi new (nectar of the gods) ;D  and looking at the empty can I saw a cargo container before my very eyes.

Pic 1, 2, 3 & 4 - The cans (yes I needed more then one ;D) once empty were washed out so the left over pepsi wouldn't attract ants.  I added some thin cardboard around the cans and some old GW paint jar lids for the lids of teh containers.

Once the cardboard and lids had dried I gave them an undercoat of gunmetal. When the undercoat had dried I then gave them three coats of matt black, I'm still deciding what the main colour of the containers is going to be so until teh next update enjoy the pics.

Ron

I'll add my fanboy-style "me too!" on the thanks for the great how-to's you've given us.  Those cans do look dead right for inclusion!  I'm tempted to say leave them black and throw on some aurabesh stencilling, some scuff-marks, and maybe some rust or other environmental "goo," and call it good!

Ron, you are an inspiration to us all. The piping looks fantastic, and I love those containers. I can already feel the warm rays from Tatooine's twin suns, because your dios always take me to the environment that you've created. Always bloody amazing!

coming together nicely, those cans are a nice touch, but look a little too clean for the enviroment, you going to weather them up anymore?
