Looking good nexy! I wash and dry brush as well. Now to tie it all together, and take away from the artificial appearance of drybrushing etc. I spray a filter or 2 over it. 95% thinner and 5% colour. Colour choice is up to you. Dark browns, greys, greens, black, etc etc. are perfect. The previouswork is not lost as it highlights the details, but appears more natural. thisits ready for weathering! Good luck!

Use a paint brush to wash the entire model.
I use enamel paints for this, mixing flat black and thinning in a ratio of 10:1 with enamel thinner. If you make a lot wahs, you can keep if for the next time. Enamel thinner attacks base colors, so model must be dry by few days or one to two weeks is the best.
Her is some wash i try and here is result on this web site http://www.naritafamily.com/howto/Tiger1/photo_frame.htm
