In this "How To", we look at a simple technique to depict heavily weathered metal & damaged paint effects - as seen in a dry desert environment - using Enamels & a blending stump laden with graphite.
Our chosen model subject is a classic - the 1:35th scale Tamiya LRDG 30cwt Chevrolet.
Enjoy!

![CAN I MAKE MY OWN ULTIMATE TOOL ORGANISER?
Christmas is here, so I put some finishing touches to my workbench and make a bespoke tool organiser which will fit on my workbench. I design from scratch and make to my own exact specifications - showing you can do similar projects using a laser engraver or cutter like the Falcon A1 by Creality.
Thanks to Creality for supplying this for review.

Transparency: samples provided by @FalconLaserOfficial, no money changed hands, editorial independence retained by me as creator.
What will you see?
Using Adobe Illustrator, I design a pull out tray and a bespoke tool organiser to halt the chaos and sit at my side on my workbench. This way, all my most frequently used tools will no longer be all over the place and stuffed in drawers, but at arms reach. At the end of the video, I make an acrylic sign and a small project for a scale model with some festive accessories.
In this third episode in my dream workshop series, I put the versatile Creality Falcon A1 laser cutter & engraver to good use - and it worked exactly as I hoped it would, with no end of possibilities ahead!
Why not watch Part 1 & Part 2?
