Hi @Busdriver, that's from taking the paint off, and I have to admit I did consider leaving it looking like that as it is really cool ;)
I think @JennyMo has detailed how to do salt masking for rust effects - I reckon you could probably do something similar on a larger scale. Another way might be to do it in reverse, and airbrush on the 'upper' paint layers.
Hope that helps!
