I painted up a Toro to use in IKRPG, I had the chance to play around with dirty down rust pigment.
This took about 2 hours start to finish and I’m pretty happy with the final product.

The image files seem to be very small. Also the photos only show part of the model. I think you will get more feedback if you post photos that show the entire model, at a slightly higher resolution.
for some reason it only uploaded the thumbnail previews, I’ve changed them for proper photos now 
the rust pigment is very cool

Very nice! Seems like very efficiently used two hours. I’d probably need two to three days to get a 'jack look that neat.
I can’t tell if you edited your post, but the photos look much better to me now. Very nice work, love the weathering and the very limited use of red as a spot colour. I like the bases too, they feel quite natural.
I re-added the photos, apparently when you drag and drop from a google drive it just puts the preview in, I foolishly assumed it would use the full image when I posted.
The bases are very natural, they are the same as the ones for my Dusk, I wanted a very forest floor feel to them, so the leaves are seed pods, and the branches are actual twigs
Ah, that’s interesting. I haven’t tried posting any photos yet myself.
90% of the work is airbrush.
Metals, then mask those and do 3 coats for the armour plate (in this case a blue grey, then white then white ink).
After that it was ink on the metals and a quick highlight, sponge method for chips with a highlight on the chips, a quick satin primer before Dirty Down rust which I pushed around until I was happy with it.
It is really good to work with, and this was the first use on a proper model.
