  1. Hummel pin washed, cleaned up, then chipped and after that again dirtified wit different brown oils like fresh and old rust and just "mud", and all gently blended around. So much fun.

    When all that had dried up, I matt varnished the whole model. Tomorrow I'll use some mud pigments and a graphite pen for final highligts and call the Bumblebee done.

  2. #WeekendReading: Ouyang et al. on the Phanerozoic onset of large-scale continental #weathering. It does lean on K/Al, which I am having some issues with, but a good amount of other proxies show up as well.

  3. Aktuell versuche ich mich ja im #Altern bzw #Weathering von #Modelleisenbahn Fahrzeugen

    Hier eine Kleine Auswahl:

  4. Meine verhunzte Lok ist wieder schön 🥰


    Der Museumsbahnverein, der sie den ÖBB abkaufen möchte, und hat aber noch keinen Spender gefunden, der dieses Roststück wieder aufarbeiten lässt.

  5. Laterite (Pedology 🟤)

    Laterite is a soil type rich in iron and aluminum that often forms in hot, wet areas; most such soil is found in the tropics. Nearly all laterites are of rusty-red coloration due to high iron oxide content. Laterite soils develop by intensive and prolonged weathering of the underlying parent rock, usually under conditions of high temperatures and heavy rainfall...

  10. #Joy #Complexity #Richness #Rust #Paint #Corrosion #Decay #Beauty #Moss #Nature #Weathering

    As we countdown the last few days of the year, please take a moment to consider how beautiful, rich and detailed the world is.

    In a video game this fence might well be pristine, or maybe rust and moss would just be drawn on the surface but out in the world, each patch of green moss is fully 3D and, if only we looked, filled with tiny insect, and even tinier, microbial life.

    On the other side of the park is a similar railing, but it has the remains of three or four layers of different colour paint, peeling and bubbling, and little moss, but much more lichen.

    Every exposed surface in the city has some measure of similar complexity, and this is without even entering the park, or digging into the ground.

    Life is wonderful, and we, you and me, being here to see it is a miracle, and as a total non-believer I use that word deliberately, if carefully.

    May your 2026 be filled with childlike wonder.

  11. #Chitonida (#Mollusca) exist since the #Cambrian. Bodies are covered with #calcareous #plates, flexibly connected. Most feed on vegetation cover. The #CambrianExplosion made based i.a. on #oxygen significant leaps in #animalevolution. Y. Zhang et al. (2025) assume a change in Earth's orbit altering #solarradiation, leading to land #weathering and #nutrients flow to the sea. Algae thrived and produced much oxygen.

  12. #DidYouKnow:Enhanced #Weathering is a process that aims to accelerate the natural weathering.

    It also removes carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere, permanently storing it in solid carbonate minerals or ocean alkalinity. The latter also slows ocean acidification.

  14. And then one of the cats knocked the damn thing to the floor. Nose wheel broke and the repair looks like it was AI-generated 😅

    I applied a yellow-grey-buff dot filtering on the top, used some Industrial Earth on the bottom and satin varnished the thing. Too shiny, will do a matt one later. And after that I'll drybrush some black on the Vulcan port, maybe the vents too.

  15. Instead of a finely controlled and elegant pin wash I covered the whole F-15E model in a dynamic thinness wash of Abteilung's Sepia. After a bit of time I cleaned it mostly up. There's still more to do, and I'll use some dot filtering and/or buff later on some bits, and a bit of Industrial Earth on the underside. I think 😄

    The drop tank gluing sucks badly, and the left landing gear came off. This fiddliness aggravates me to no end.

  16. In the absence of a #ZeroEmission grid,
    I'm fairly sure energy use in the production process of this material would negate most of (if not all) the #CarbonCapture potential. But it does offer a demonstration experiment on #weathering feedback one can do with #students on a reasonable time scale... Even if I don't see a significant boon here for #ClimateChange mitigation.
