Ok fellas, ive been looking at a few of the other peoples post about weathering, so on and havent found anything of what I am asking here. So correct me if im wrong, but I think this is a fairly new question.

1.) Do you drybrush the whole AFV?

2.)Weathering is spraying an AFV with gloss and than... what?

3.)Say the AFV that you are painting is Pink :-) what color would you drybrush?

4.)Say the AFV is Green what color would you drybrush?

5.) Say the AFV is Grey what color would you wash it?


Well ill probobly come up with some more questions, but thats all I can think of right now. TIA! Cheers

PS: I think I know most of the answers but Im iffy on them, I made this post to concele my problems.

Harrison,
I highlly and most strongly suggest you pick up Shep paines How to build Dioramas and or Modeling Tanks and military vehilces. I have had these books for years and you can get them pretty cheap if you look around.they have answers to all your questions and some you havent even thought of yet. I still refer back to these books on occasion and I have been modelling for at least 25 yrs since I was about 10 . They are invaluable and very straight forward with tons of pics and diagrams. HTH
cheers,
Bryan
