Weathered Paint with Dan Rousseau

At the 2025 Harrisburg show, I was introduced to Dan Rousseau who taught me some incredible tricks and tips. Dan was gracious enough to let me film him explaining how he does his modelmaking. In this video, Dan shows his technique for making weathered paint on structures using a few simple tricks.

Builders In Scale stains, although I would think any alcohol-based stain should do the trick. https://www.builders-in-scale.com/bis...

Dan uses cheap craft acrylics you can find at any art supply store. Nothing fancy.
