Nice sag on the tracks and excellent tone in that paint job! How did you accomplish the streaking?

Believe it or not it is very simple do reproduce that kinda of look. I just use plain old pastes that you can buy from any craft store. They come in sticks and i just use a razor blade to shave some of and use a round sable brush to apply them.
Yes this is a Dragon kit.

Looks nice. You may want to go back and repaint the tires on the inner roadwheels -seems you missed some spots?

Can you elaborate a little on the pastes? Are they like pastels? I may have to run out to the craft store this afternoon!

Robert,
Very nice job! Take a bow and give yourself a well deserved pat on the back.

What did you use for the main color? It looks like a well faded dark yellow

Hi!
Thats a very nice build. I like the lack of chip-paint and in all makes the model much more realistic. Good job

Looks great. I agree with Sticky those wheels should be painted.
Very nice weathering, only, the front plate of the tank is is very clean compares the upper hull.
Are you going to putt there spare tracks? if not. you should weather that
