A little walk-through..

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???

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.
