Just to help remind our "viewers", the Italeri T-72 kits are repops of the DML kits, just as Revell Of Germany and Zvezda are also repops of the DML kits.

Nice work.

Hi I used a oil umber and black wash made by Windsor and Newton who do artists oil paints, and then Floquil weathering railroad paints, I used mud and dust airbrushed at low pressure with a Aztek Airbrush. Hope this helps .
Best wishes
