Great looking T-62, Mark. Nice weathering.
Best wishes,
Ian

Really like your restrained weathering effects and the way your color modulation perfectly simulates areas where the paint has been oxidized from exposure and areas where paint has been worn to a sheen from wear. Beautiful piece of work.

Loved the moderate use of dust. We all tend to overdo the weathering at times! Very realistic--well done.

Thanks for the comments. Weathering powders were used on the tracks and running gear. Dust effects on the entire upper chassis and turret were done using oil paints. Oils allow for very fine and translucent effects with the added advantage of being resistant to touch. Should hopefully have it on a diorama base in the next couple of weeks, time permitting.
