Every time you eat celery,an angel vomits in a gas station bathroom. Tanks rule. I know the load is late,but the voices tell me to pull over and clean the guns.

Your weathering here is absolutely superb!

I've never seen that "used and abused" look on metal done better! The whitewash treatment is expertly applied as well. I can just imagine the crew painting it on as the snow is falling around them.

Most excellent!

Thanks Brian. I sprayed acrylic clear gloss  over the dark yellow. A few days later,I sprayed the white to where it barely covered. One hour or so later,I brushed thinner over the white.

Does look like real metal "used and abused" out in the elements for some time :)
I wanna start dabbling with weathering.  If half this good I be in model nirvana.
