Hi guys,
Could any of you help me. I am planning on buying 3 or 4 AK Interactive weathering products for the AK Interactive Competition on Facebook. I am only 14 and do not own any AKI products, so I was wondering what are the essential 3 or 4 that I need to weather a Soviet vehicle (BMP-3?). I know I have just about no chance in winning but I recon its worth a shot.
Any help would be appreciated.

For peacetime vehicles I prefer to keep weathering to a minimum. With that in mind I would chose these

Dark Wash For Green Vehicles*
Fuel Stains
Fresh Engine Oil or Engine Grime

if you want any earth effects go with which ever effect you want to achieve.

*this could be mixed on your own but, the AK product is excellent and ready-made.

I would say Streaking Grime is a must-buy- very easy to use and effective.

Thanks for your advice guys. I am probably gonna order Streaking Grime, Streaking Rust, an earth effect and Dark Wash for Green Vehicles.
P.S.
Does anyone know about the price of postage from the AK site?
Thanks again
