Hi Guyz,

This might be the wrong Forum, if so, sorry for that.
Now for my question: Which colors to use for filters on Russian armor?
I know a lot of people use contrasting colors to weather the base color, but which colors??

Thanks for your time, John.

I use the basic red, blue, yellow enamels VERY thinned down. With a blue emphasis in the shadows and a yellow emphasis on the topsides. My purpose is just to add richness to the already shadowed and faded base color. Works for me.I usually end up with 8 or 9 coats, it is VERY thinned paint. Check out the articles by MIG on the Missing Link site. Hope it helps.
