Hey, I live there lol!
Nice work! I have been having an internal struggle about weathering my engines, but seeing that makes me realize there really is no better option for an operating model.
Fabaulous weathering! Airbrush and powder/chalk????

Airbrush, except for the rust patches by the front end throttle and on the pilot. That is done with Bragdon weathering powder.
