Cheers Steve, glad you like it.

This is the first time I've sprayed on a dust effect and like how it's turned out. Might make a nice foundation for further work.

My favourites live on my computer desk, but it's starting to get a bit crowded!

I spray on two colours - light on top of dark. The next stage is to do splatter marks using different mediums and consistency's building up different layers of mud and dirt. But then you know I like my builds dirty :smiling5: :thumb2:

Very Nice Andy, you’ve made a lovely job on this great looking vehicle :thumb2:

[Guest]

Thanks Si.

Hi Andy
One to definitely be pleased with. Pride of place on your desk.

[Guest]

Thanks Jim.

I keep looking at it knowing there are areas where I could have added lots of extra details, but I'm working up to that so maybe next time. For pretty much OOB I'm very pleased with it though.

Andy,
now that's a real cracker! Panzer Grey is easy to spoil with overdone weathering, but you've got that spot on.
What's on your build list next?
Dave

[Guest]

Thanks Dave, I did think about doing more but glad I stopped where I did.

Next up, I'm not sure. I'm currently building a workshop scene to use as a base for this one, and maybe a future backdrop.

After that it's either the ancient Tamiya M557 command post set, or I have the new release Zvezda SU-57, but I'm waiting for the aftermarket to catch up for the digital camo masks, and I need to work out what colours to use.

Although if the Zvezda Typhoon gets released any time soon that's going to the front of the queue!

Andy,
That is a cracking result mate, great paintwork and finish.

[Guest]

Thanks Paul.

Nicely done Andy, I will admit a vehicle that has a light weathering (like yours) looks so much better than a vehicle that looks like it has partied hard at the Glastonbury festival!

[Guest]

Haha, thanks Lee!

I'll not be able to get that image out of my head the next time I see a muddy build :smiling5:

Only just caught this one andy , excellent work . The weathering is just perfect for my tastes ,well used but not caked in it , great job , cheers tony.

[Guest]

Thanks Tony, really appreciate that.

That looks quite special. A monotone colour, which is anything, but monotone. Nice job.
