    Gee, Tony, you're banging on the door to become a bonafide RUST JUNKIE. Great work with this one.

    Thanks for the comments, but I don't feel I've got the hang of
    adding rust yet. Yeah, I did some things in Photoshop to pop
    the colors, and added a masked texture layer with the opacity
    reduced, but it doesn't look like real rust to me. I can't get
    that gritty, flaky look.

    It's become a challenge, though. I shot some stock frames of
    real rust today that I'll try as future texture layers.

    Here's what I started with, and it really was a rusty Subaru.

    Some good rust there, Tony. The 1st pic you posted, after the post-processing, is very good. Your Rustaholics Club card is in the mail.
