I finally finished a Steampunk frame for my Steampunk Lady. This frame was bright white when I started.  I used clear gesso, Sepia acrylic paint, waited for it to dry.  Then I added Steampunk items that I had in my stash.  After that I painted everything with black gesso and then I used Finn's Rust pastes to get the rusty effect.  I went over it with a bit of gold paste too
