You
You can still use a graphite pencil, I have a selection, or even a normal pencil to do accents on hatches and rims etc. Also, you can still use the oil paint technique and the rusting even with the paint job done as these are final weathering finishes.
The rusting is just pigments, old rust, new rust etc and a pigment fixer but I use thinners. Use toothpicks, micro brushes and sponges to apply the rust. Like any model, if handling or using it is always best to add a matt clear coat after detailing, this does tone the rust done slightly so, if you go this route make the rust a tad lighter.
This is a knocked out 1/16 Tiger with weathering, rust and smoke effects.
Love the rusting on that one, that is amazing!
It's too late for most of those methods now as I have already painted them. Will give the rusting a go though!
