Hi all, I just finshed this panzer III, this is my first shot at using Mig pigments for weathering. Let me know what you think.

Thanks,
R.J.

Good effort and not too overdone. i like the use the pigmennts on the lower hull.
Did you do any pin washes washes filters and dust effects on the upper hull as well?

Dave and Julian,

Thank you both, I appreciate it. I used a dark wash on the upper hull to accent the weld beads, and misted a couple shades of yellow and buff over the upper hull to lightly fade/oxidize the base color a little, and I did apply small amounts of European dust here and there on the upper hull mainly focusing on the tops of the fenders.

You got a good color mix on the lower hull. You do have to use those pigs little by little with patience or they will overtake your painting efforts quickly. I try to start them just in the corners and workout from there. Have fun
