Ok, time to wipe the dust off this project. And it doesn't need much dust to cover up this bunch of styrene polymeres.

I used some of the ready to use-products from Ammo of Mig, like pin washes and two shades of mud, dabbed on with a fraction of a sponge. Also my trusted no name-pigments came into play.

Now on with a dull coat and some pigments again.

This is some excellent realistic looking dirt. I almost believed this was a 1/35th scale tank. You did a spectacular job!
