Update with scans of the photo fresco rust versus the aluminum with a 2nd color painted in.

A previous post where I discussed this process in detail was moved further down the blog because I updated a bunch of failed post from my phone. Here is a link to that explanation: http://photofresco.blogspot.com/2013/06/on-road-to-ruin-i-found-what-i-was.html

This hi contrast photographic image is a good example of the rust technique versus the painting a second color of epoxy. Although the epoxy finished image of Johnny Cash is cleaner looking, it also is too generic in some ways. The mystery surrounding the rust process is far more interesting to me and although it makes the piece look like a piece of old metal, hey, that's the accomplishment because it is really a new piece of plastic and not metal. It feels like plastic and molds like plastic, but it looks like rusty old steel.
