I use Prismacolor colored pencils. They are made of a soft lead.
I'm sure that most any colored pencil will work. Just be sure to keep the tip nice and sharp.

Sabot posted a tip awhile back on using a regular lead pencil rubbed over black to give you a “gun-metal” type finish. Other than that, I also use the Prismacolor pencils that Kencelot mentions.

for worn edges or tips of the tank tracks you can use standard 2b pencil
