For a few 40K bases i am wanting to do microchips, with some of them rusted. Of course i can paint rust, but i saw an awesome tutorial on something else, and was wondering if it is possible to rust certain parts of microchips? [*]Note: They might be called differently here, I mean the microprocessing chips and circuitboards from inside computers and such [*] [*]I wanted spotty rust, not complete rust all over it. [*] Thanks!

Do you mean you want actual rust on them and not just painted rust effect? |

Actual rust would be hard on microchips since rust is basically oxidated iron. Maybe try to get some iron chippings (?) on your micro chips and spray a bit water over them every now and then... i guess this method takes quite a while, but you'd have real rust on your chips. |

In my honest opinion it is a ridiculous idea as rust in rust...ie its a chemical reaction and once started does not stop, it will just continue to eat away at any metal part that has been affected by it. It needs a water source to continue eroding away, but it will pull moisture out of the air to do this. Painting is your best option and painting rust doesn't seem hard, you just need to do some practice. |

Yeah I would go with painting the rust, it is something which you should be able to do a fairly decent job of and you can just use sprue or something simple if you need a metal beam. Simple things are often the best. |

What works really well is to take some steel wool (the stuff you use to clean frying pans) and to put it in a container with some water, it rusts really quickly and you can use the rust partivles afterwards for weathering! Here's a tutorial! http://massivevoodoo.blogspot.fr/2010/0 ... -rust.html |

Here's a tutorial! http://massivevoodoo.blogspot.fr/2010/0 ... -rust.html A good link If you use vinegar with the steel wood a solution can be made to oxides/weather wood. Plaid makes a paint with particles of iron suspended in the medium. A separate oxidizer is used to activate the rust.  The Instant Iron was used on the rusty pot I built last summer.The Rust fence was base coated brown over spray black primer and dry brushed once with Americana red oxide. Americana is also a Plaid product.  I built this from a Matchbox toy back in the 90's. David from Cool Mini or not owns it now. I used The instant Iron and similar products on it. The home made product may be to subtle for terrain. It is top tip for fine scale. |
