The key to this was not to go too far on the weathering. I also didnt to alot of super detailing in the gash in the hull, some screen, wire, and little bits to suggest things in side. And the fun part was doing every thing you arent supposed to do on decals.
Oh yeah, she was futured and glossy and gorgeous once...then I took a knife and dremel to her. The grid was one big decal which I had to let dry, I applied more future and applied the registry over that, and futured again. I wasnt sure about the decal on decal thing, but it worked!
