Weathering is very well done. Can you explain how you achieved the effect?
thanks

Tnx to all...
Wethering was done firstyi with filters of MM oil colors(brown and black -experiments,really),then regular wash of bown-black and than i`ve painted it a matt coat and attacked it with pastels.streaks were done with severall shades of brown pastel with a moist thin brush also the worn edges were done in that fashion

Looks great, and the camo scheme is perfect and easy to paint by brush! I'll take it as a reference when I build one of these!

Tnx again
yeah, the camo is very simple to do but I didn`t get that hard edged look I wanted. I used Tac Patafix (blue tac-if you will) for masking to try to make it as hard edged as I could. on a spare tank I`ve tried to redo-it with a brush but was just not satisfied...

Got any suggestions, this will be of really big help, since I`m doing a Tiger II which is brush painted factory finish.It is in 48th scale,if it matters
