Awesome work Fred! Great color with excellent chipping. I might add some pooling directly below on the side rails and a touch on the tops of the rivets. I'm a big rust fan! Keep going!
I am dragging my tug through the rust work now. A dirty wash is next...i think.
Hopefully Chum444 will touch base, he is a master of rust and weathering (second picture)!

New to me

Hi One & All
I have been after a 1/24 Clyde Puffer for some time now, some time back I found one on Market Place at a good price, I have now got it home and I found that the mast foot was broken, it did not take me long to make a new one from scrap. also the ladder to the wheelhouse was missing, I am going to try and make a new one from some 1/8 Sq brass that I have, then is on to weathering her. I have tried out Dirty Down Rust just to see how it would look. do cgive me you thoughts on it.

That's all right, Mr Ryan. My Morse is so rusty, I could be sending him dimensions on Playmate of the Month.
