I do some weathering on the model
At the first wash:

And some mud:




Now it's time for some dust

I add some dust:

Today I have done tracks:

Very nice work. I absolutely have HATED the ET instructions, but the sets are very nice. The side skirts have not gone together as tightly as I would have liked, but there is more than enough brass for anyone's efforts.

Why if you don't mind my asking? It seems to work very well at rendering detail & shading on a small model.

Almost done

I like the overall look of it. The only thing that bothers me are the weird antennas. Your model deserves straight ones.

I agree with Olivier. Colour, detailling, weathering all appear to be on the spot and the overall appearance is very realistic. But the antennas catch the eye - and not in a pleasing way.

If you choose to replace them, I recommend not to colour them plain white. As this pic shows they seem to be more of a cream colour.

The M2 Browning looks a bit too grey and dull to me. Maybe some metal pigments to rub on will improve its metal appearance.

I am shure, that if you take care of the antennas, you will turn a good model into an excellent one.
Keep up the good work.

PS: here is a tutorial I did a while ago of how to make ellipsoid antenna sockets that bend realistically. Maybe you might use it.

Very nice work.
