      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.

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

                    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 πŸ˜„ that I don't fully use. The Apple mouse currently has no buttons, I think.
