Lookin' really good brother! I like that you didn't over-do it with the chipping. Lot of that going around lately.
I will stay tuned.

Sorry, I was AFK for a week!

Those carriers look really great! I agree with Jerry.....congrats for not overdoing it!!

As for the figs, I can only second Jerry here as well...look (naturally) at yourself in the mirror....your eyes don't look like my teddy bear's!!

And if you could get rid of that sheen..!!

Cheers

Romain

Afternoon everyone. Well seeing as I'm on standby guard and stuck here over the weekend I'm thinking its going to be a weekend of guitar, world of tanks (just started playing) and weathering the Carriers.

My question is, what's the best order to weather them in. Is it rust, then dusting, then the thicker mud or is there another way of doing it?

Cheers!!

Hi m8!

think of it logically....what occurs first....for rust to really build up and show, you need time....duts comes automatically if you drive over the right terrain (dry dirt road, dry fields. etc) and mud clings on top of everyting as it just dried out during the last wet period/terrain.

Hope that helps!

And please, don't overdo the rust!!

Cheers
