Thanks, it was an old tamiya kit. It looked horrible before I added some weathering. I tried a new technique to add dust. I mixed pigments with 2/3 turpentine and 1/3 pigment fixer (ammo of mig or AK) and just painted it on the tank. Then I took a large brush and just brushed untill it looked okay. The pigment fixer made the pigments to stay when I airbrushed a varnish over it. Old kits are good to experiment with 🙂

Haha! Yes, I agree. Old kits are perfect for experimenting😉

Thanks for the info on your workflow! I'm always interested in other people's methods 👍 You definitely made this one look like a fine specimen in this experiment! 👍
