Thank you for the comments
Nicolas, sorry I didn't have time yesterday and I'm away this morning for a week, but as soon as I return!

No rush there John.
Your final image already makes my day!

Again, brilliant work. Hats off (There's no hats off smiley but here's a paint bucket for you: )

I used to drive a smaller version of this, it also had deployable railway bogeys ! As usual Tadema well done mate, this is giving me flashbacks to my Tonka days.

Nice, thanks! Simple and effective

Wow! First mansions, now giant trucks. What are you, some kind of over achiever?
Looks great, as usual.
I would thing your method for adding rust to a truck would work for adding weathering to a building.

Add my thanks for the PDF.

Thanks for the dirt, John! A question or two, if not too dense.... so you are painting just colors not texture from the sample layer? Actually I am not totally clear, if you are painting how you end up with a rectangular texture. Thanks, if you have the time. Peter

Thanks everyone.

Hello Peter, sorry I should have taken more time with the PDF
Page 2... Main Image with a texture image on a new layer.
Page 3... Make a new layer, activate your texture layer and sample using the clone stamp tool with a brush of choice or sample a colour and use a standard brush. Activate a new layer and paint into it with the clone tool.
Page 4.. Activate the Rectangle Marque tool { Ctrl M ). Activate the move tool (v) Now ( Ctrl t ) right click and choose whatever tool... Scale...ect
Scale the new texture how you need it and place as required, then just make a new Layer and repeat.

It's harder to explain than to show you, if ^ makes no sense I will make a quick video.
Your on a Mac so I've no idea as you only have one mouse button???
take care
John

Thanks John, that helps. I'll play with that.

No, I've got like seven buttons on my mouse that I don't fully use. The Apple mouse currently has no buttons, I think.
