Many thanks John, your assistance has been very helpul...try to fix , and has become this, took away most of the rust around the main body and turret, more washes with oil and drybrush with a mix of gun metal and aluminium to gave it a mettalic look (and simulate a subtle chipped paint)
¿It´s better now? Advices welcome
All the best
Klaus

Hi Klause,
Your Scorpion is looking really good now, makes me think of happy past memories. Keep up the good work and lets see some more pics as you get to the end.
I like it now that you have lost some of the rust, it has that lived in look.
Regards,
John

Thanks for your comments John, as you can see, most of the rust originally applied it´s out, now has a more "in service" look, and I guess the addition of the flag gave it a nice look....
Hope to achive something that keep bring it to you those memories of past "adventures" in this little fellow..
All the best
