Well, here's my entry for this months AMoM competition. It's DML's 1/35 Premium Edition Elefant with zimmerit done using Epoxy Putty and the AFV Club zimm roller. Eventually I would like to add some dust, especially to the tracks/lower hull, using mig pigments once I get them, but for now its considered finished. All comments are welcome.

Hey Brian
You've made an ugly beast look almost pretty!
I think some dust would liven it up even more, and yep the streaks are understated and effective
Cheers
Brad
P.S. Best of luck!

Thanks a lot for all the comments. Glad you like the finish, as one of the things I'm really trying to improve on is my weathering / finishing skills. I think one of the things that can make a good model great is the weathering / finish of the build.
