The weathering just keeps getting better and better. 

You also have a decent selection of malts for paint stands! 😁

Nice work. I have all the big Trumpeter T-34s and their big SU-100 in my

stash. 'Been eyeing the SU-100 as my next build.

Would love to see some in progress photos of that weathering. I never understand how it looks so real 😅 amazing work.

mostly trial and error...still learning stuff...youtube videos and weathering magazine/damaged magazine info. Basic oils colors and some AK track wash/filters/liquid pigments. Transition from 1/35 modelling to 1/16 is quite challenging. For example some highlight techniques do not look right 1/16 when 1/35 scale it does. Hard to explain...

I am happy that you like my work. Thank you🙂

Coming together nicely, FA. I like your sequential weathering technique, where the layers add up depth, a necessity with that scale, I think. The added details let the build pop and are nice eye catchers.

Cheers Rob

"sequential weathering technique, where the layers add up depth, a necessity with that scale"...yes you are exactly right. 👍

Watercan weathering using mig chipping fluid. Also AK weathering pencils tested first time. Happy with results. Next varnish and pinwash.
