Weathering is subjective with WW1 subjects.
Castor oil staining and a bit of mud/grass on wheels.
Use common sense and as many "real" and original photos as possible for reference. Don't rely on artwork/drawing etc, that leads to the darkside. Oops got carried away there.

Weathering on WW1 planes is very subtle generally.
