Hi Fritz Looking darn good!

As for what need to be done from this clean and nice camo. The following is what I will do:

1. to have a beer for celebration of a fine job.
2. Put the tracks on.
3. Put the decals on.
4. Put on a clear coat
5. Wash (I usually do an over all wash with dark brownish color)
6. when waiting for the wash to dry, have another beer, because it gonna take sometimes, and the first beer is wearing out....
7. if you like what you see with the wash, then mix some mud color, I use 1 part flat black and 9 parts Tamiya flat earth, then spray them on the lower chasis, don't be afraid to over spray a bit to the upper hull
8. mix some thinned flat black, spray gun nozzles, and exhaust.
9. spray Tamiya buff all over to blend the camo together, and tone down color
10. apply flat coat
11. Beer time again....
12. I don't know how to effectively do dry brush, so I just add metalic color here and there. on tracks, or on usual-accessed areas
13. I apply pastel chalks, dark brown most of the time too. on the recess areas or on little details. And if you really wanna to tone the color down, do an over all pastel chalk brush work.
14. Apply flat again to seal everything in
15. Have another beer, and post picture.
16. Write down the name of every armorama-er whom give you bad comment about your model, proceeding with political assassination.... #:-) #:-)
