Hello.
Im a reader since a couple of years and just registered to bei able to show some of my models too. Im 23 years old and from Austria.
At the moment I build the ESV Stryker from Trumpeter.
First a wip pic from the painting,
And the two other pics show the status of the dusting at the moment.
I dusted with Mig Pigments and the water technique.
So far im satisfied with the result, but whats your opinion.
Cheers

Welcome at Armorama Johannes!
Your build looks clean. The dusting should be applied to the vehicle's sides as well as to the roof. The process is probably not finished.
I also think you've overdone the scratching of the paint on the blade elements. But I'm sure someone will post the picturial evidence that I'm wrong

hello,
thx for your answer.
The blade elements will be heavily dusted, so that the effect is not looking that strong. Still wip.
The sides wont get too much dust, as dust does not stay on vertical walls in the same extent as on the horizontal ones.
I saw this picture of a stryker and used it as refernce.

some more pictues of dusting which is still work in progress.
The pics could be better I know, but I have quite a hard time making good ones.
here you can see that I dusted the shovel, so that the scratches do not look that extreme anymore
