Building: this is the Tamiya kit built straight from
the box with some brake and fuel lines added. I also added a Verlinden
50.cal machine gun.
Painting: Tamiya acrylics followed with coat of Vallejo matt varnish
to seal the decals. Weathering with black and umber oils thinned heavily,
second weathering with Tamiya buff. Drybrushing was done with Vallejo
khaki mixed with white. After this came some 'spattering' with heavily
thinned buff. Rainstreaks were applied with heavily thinned (with water)
Tamiya buff then a coat of buff sprayed on by airbrush; this process
was repeated several times. After this a heavily thinned wash with Europe
dust and beach sand (Mig Pigments) was applied over the entire vehicle.
Another heavier wash was applied to the lower regions. The semi-wet
mud was achieved by mixing raw umber, plaster and Mig Pigments. For
