My Lost, Fail-Safe Key

[jhusel]

I picked this up on eBay and decided it needed to be weathered. It had a chrome key, and glossy pewter "fob". So I distressed it and think it looks much better!

Ooo, how did you get the brown look on the fob?

Thanks guys!

I actually used brown, black, and a touch of red. Then dry brushed it.

I keep meaning to get one of those.

The pits on the original key look bigger, but that looks spot on!

Hi!
It looks a vintage one!
Some people uses Copper sulphate solution to age metal things , it gives a blue-green deposits that imitates ageing very well.
Cheers!
