About product

Rosso Ruggine Regio Esercito Matt from Lifecolor

Rosso Ruggine means rust red in Italian and it is one of the few shades with its purpose written straight into its name. On a model it represents the middle stage of corrosion, the state in which rust is no longer a fresh stain but has not yet had time to darken to brown-black. It is precisely this intermediate stage that occurs most often on real vehicles, which is why it is usually the best one to start from.

The most common uses

  • Stippled corrosion scattered over horizontal surfaces where water stands.
  • The cores of chipped spots, where the metal has been exposed for some time.
  • The edges of plates, the rims of openings and unprotected cuts.
  • A base under rust streaks, which are then run downward in a lighter tone.

How to grade rust

The surest method is to build rust in three steps and to reduce the area in each. First the whole corroded spot is covered with this mid rust tone. In the second step a darker brown is stippled into it, but only into the hollows and toward the edges, so that a shadow appears. In the third, a warmer, lighter tone is added to the highest points as the youngest corrosion. It is applied with the tip of the brush, a piece of sponge or very fine stippling, never as a full area; a continuous rusty coat looks like paint, not like rust.

Who the color is for

It suits anyone taking on corrosion for the first time who wants one universal rust tone from which they can go in both directions. More experienced modelers will use it as the middle link of the whole rust scale and also on cargo, chains, barrels and the metal equipment of dioramas.

Keep out of the reach of children and follow the manufacturer's instructions on the packaging.

FAQ

On small details yes, on large corroded areas no. Real rust always has several tones according to its age. This shade is the right start, though, because it lies in the middle of the scale and you can go up and down from it.

Because the eye reads a continuous coat as the color of the surface. Rust needs an irregular texture, small clusters and uneven density, so it is applied by stippling, with the tip of the brush or with a sponge.

It is the Italian designation for a rust red color. The manufacturer uses it in the name of the shade to point to Italian color nomenclature; no assignment to particular types of vehicle follows from the name.
