Rain-stained rust Stencils, Color (Large)

Large-format rain-stained rust stencil — the dramatic-scale companion to our small and medium stencil. Use it for the larger rust streaks that form on bigger panels, ship hulls, large vehicle surfaces, and prominent weathering features that need to be visible at viewing distance.

Where the small/medium version handles fine streaking on smaller details, this large variant covers bigger surfaces with bolder rust patterns. 80×80mm stainless steel reusable stencil, compatible with all common scales.

Works great for:

• Ship and naval models — large rust streaks on hulls and decks
• Large-scale tank and AFV builds — 1/16 and 1/24 weathering
• Heavily-weathered industrial scenes — large fuel tanks, refinery structures
• Post-apocalyptic dioramas — dramatic decay on large machinery
• Display-quality builds — visible weathering at exhibition distance

Key features:

• Reusable metal stencil — 80 × 80mm
• Large-scale rain-stained rust pattern
• Compatible with 1/16 to 1/100 scales (most dramatic effect on larger scales)
• Stainless steel — clean with water or thinner
• Apply with airbrush or sponge

How to use:

1. Tape the stencil in vertical orientation on the area you want weathered
2. Airbrush rust paint (dark red-brown, orange-brown) through the openings
3. Layer multiple tones (light to dark) for depth and realism
4. Position larger streaks below substantial water sources: deck edges, large panel seams
5. Seal with a matt clear topcoat once dry

Tip: Pair this large stencil with our small/medium rain-stained rust stencil on the same model. Using both sizes together creates natural-looking weathering that single-size streaks can't match — real rust patterns vary in scale across a vehicle's surfaces.
