Bare metal tools got a coat of Vallejo Gunmetal Grey (70.863) while wooden handles and such were painted with Vallejo Chocolate Brown (70.872). With most the weathering done, I started in on painting the little tools and gear on the exterior. The model was then sealed with Humbrol Matt Varnish (AD6049) applied straight from the spray can.
The streaks applied to the open areas, the wash concentrated at edges and recesses, and the dry brushing accentuating ridges and raised details gives the model a sense of depth. After the wash, raised details were accentuated by dry brushing with light buff (Abteilung: Abt 135). This was followed with a pin wash (AK Dark Brown for Green Vehicles: AK 045). With a nice uniform coat of green to work with I started the weathering process using enamel washes blended with a soft brush and white spirits to make vertical streaks. No need for a primer as the kit was molded in green and the Tamiya lacquers bite into the plastic quite nicely. I applied a base coat of Tamiya TS-28 Olive Drab 2 straight out of the can. However Tamiya thin cement was used in a few spots to make things close up and make the seams disappear. The parts fit perfectly and securely to the point that glue really wasn’t necessary.
