As an update to the post I include two pictures of the gates mounted in their permanent home. The first is from outside the yard and the second from inside the yard.

Rusted beauty
The recent plasma cut gates have been given an initial sports of mild acid and set outside to start their patina. Once they are in place we'll further chemically add different value colours (subtle shades of brown) to the different layers to further differentiate them from each other. In only a couple of days outside the rust colour evened out on the metal and it now looks vastly different than when we pulled them from the shop.
