Hello all,
Attached is a Steyr 1500A that I have been working on. It is meant to represent a vehicle around the time of the Kursk battle. It's the Tamiya kit with some Voyager etch, pretty basic in the build. The weathering is done 100% with oils (exception - pigments on the underside) , taking much from the techniques in Mr Rinaldi's TANKART. I have this pictured side done pretty much, and am about ready to start on the next side. I went from basic paint to fully weathered in just that one side, before moving on to the next section.
Let me know what your thoughts are, would like some feedback before continuing on.

Nice finish so far. I think it's an excellent idea to do one side first. The result will be a slightly asymmetrical weathering which will add to the realism.
