UPDATE.

I have given it too washes and a stipple coat of black and brown, there is still more to do. I also have painted the inner hatches, these will then be weathered. Tracks have had a two coats of metallic steel and will be weathered. I have also started on the wheels-these take ages and I have to sand and scrape the paint off-did try using a mask but it didn't work too well.

I tried to go for that hot metal look on the covers, if you look you can see a blue orange tinge, the rest isn't rust but the a brown/red of the under coat showing through-has it worked...sort of, best I could do anyway.

Glad you like it so far. have done the other wheels, just got to start sanding and scrapping...Oh joy.

Just caught up with this, this is looking sweet your client is going to love it.

Thanks Scott, he has seen progress pics and seems to like it so far, hopefully he will like the finished tank.
