russ c Posted August 16, 2015 Author Share Posted August 16, 2015 Looks the business Russ, well done! Great finish. Can I ask what kind if weathering/filters/washes did u use? Thanks for sharing Cheers Mixup, re weathering etc: I used a pencil, dry brushes of olive drab, alluminium, dark earth, gunmetal. I did a black wash with some of the kids old water colours and sealed it all with Matt varnish. Followed by some dark earth slapped on here and there. Thanks to all for looking and kind comments 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
