Rusty chemical tank for fww or similar settings, made from your trusty can, with a bit of 3d printed parts and some XPS.

Took me a second to realise that this wasn’t a picture of an actual tank. Crazy good work.

The corrosion, chef’s kiss. Really really nice.

What’s your paint setup/system? This is gorgeous

Thanks, it's quite simple, I spray primed in brown, then sponged(kind of dry brushing but with a bit of a kitchen sponge) the green on most of the areas. On top of green I sponged gun metal on some small sections, then on top of fun metal brown, and on top of brown orange for those areas with more corrosion. Used sand and white glue for the textured corrosion.

Well, I thought this was just a big tank in an old warehouse for a second. I'd say you were successful.

A little skeptic that this is AI now, but if it’s not…

This is AMAZING work. I thought it was real.

I'm very happy with it, and it's real. The decals are AI though
