Burnt sienna is a good paint to use, especially as an overall wash.

I use mostly acrylics. For rust, I use a mix of red brown with a little bit of flat black. Washing and dry-brushing helps a lot.

Good luck.

Use Testors rust enamel. Use as a wash for tracks and other areas.
Take a rust pastel chalk, scrape the chalk into a napkin with an x-acto blade, then dip a brush (dry) into the chalk and dab it into/onto the places you wish to highlight. When done overcoat with a flat of some sort.

I use the rustall alot, for dark washes and rust on tracks and vehicles. It goes on in layers and is very easy to control. Then you can use pastes when its dry, its well worth the price IMHO
