My method does sound a bit brutal Bill, but when I started my modelling, weathering pigments ect. were almost unheard of, so I had to look at what was available and polyfilla was all there was!!
I am not knocking modern methods but I have in the past seen models ruined by too much fiddling regards to weathering and generally 'roughing up' ending up with what I call 'squeaky clean' weathering.
Just take a look at military archive photos and footage and just look at the state of some of the vehicles and troops!
O.K. soap box kicked away.
I'm sure whatever method of finish you choose the end result will look good.
