Finally finished.
This is my stab at a desert three colour digital camo. Not copied (that would have been beyond me) I just sort of made it up as I went along.
The vehicle is not accurate. I've left off and added things which would or would not have been fitted. An attempt at the camouflage was my main aim.
All brush painted using Vallejo Model Air throughout, slightly thinned with good old tap water.
Sometimes I feel folks get bogged down with weathering models through reading this and that long winded methods. That's fine, whatever modellers are happy with and suits them best, we all have a different approach. I just like to keep things simple and quick. For this dusty look I used the lightest colour (Desert Sand) and with a large flat headed brush I literally coated the whole model and let the paint run and gather where it liked. Once dry I repeated this process until I was happy with the effect.
Anyway here it is......
Next I'm going to put the model on a diorama and see if the camouflage works.....
Cheers all.
