String Cables

I’m building the Trumpeter Pz.Kpfw IV Ausf D/E Fahrgestell and need the white string for the crane to look like rusty cable,

Thanks

I’d soak the string with white glue just before adding it to the kit and apply a weight to the end to keep it straight and taut as it dries. I would not go for a rusty look, however, but more of a greasy black. Rusty metal is weak metal and a cable snapping under stress can really ruin your day.
