zimmerit looks pretty realistic to me

Thanks, it's a time consuming task and I'm trying to not make any big mistakes because I've never done zimmerit before.

Thank you OttovonLindberg. I'm using what Spanjaard mentioned. It's an epoxy putty and a very small screwdriver like the ones used in cellphones. To apply the putty into the model I'm using a toothpick after that I use the same screwdriver with a lit bit of water to smooth it's surface. Then I start to use the screwdriver to make the zimmerit.

My attempt to apply zimmerit without specifics tools and holes drilled into exhaust and main weapon.
Finally finished the zimmerit, lots of work especially in the back plate.
