Wow, a beauty. I agree superb weathering with just enough chipped paint effects to be credible and realistic.

If you are asking for suggestions I would only say try some decal techniques. You can see the edges quite clearly which is a shame as they then look like decals as opposed to a painted on ensignia.

Have a play with Micro-Sol and Micro-Set and experiment with some Johnsons Kleer floor polish. Do a search on here we have talked about these things quite a few times. If you get that right the decals will really look painted on and enhance the overall effect tremendously.
