This is a Tiger I did all in one colour.

And this is a good basic start to weathering AFV's, you can then experiment with different techniques and mediums as you do other builds.

Hope this helps.

An excellent Tiger build there Daran, it don't get much better than that and it's amazing how something that is basically yellow can be NOT yellow if you get what I mean? Great link to the weathering guide as well, if that don't answer any questions then nothing will - superb link and thanks for posting it!!

Looking great & that link should also help, thanks for that one Nemises. Also check out this book, think you'll find it very useful as covers a multitude of weathering techniques. http://www.historexagent...il.php?ProductCode=TA01

Sean
Good start on your weathering, I'm sure you're not finished. One thing the dirt would tend to accumulate in the little nooks and crannies. Your dirtying up seems to be more in the middle of the panels. I would suggest mixing up some quite liquid dirt mix and letting it flow into the corners.
