Default Weathering tips and tricks for this beast.


Ok, time for weathering of this beast. Looking for some suggestions as I am heading to hobby shop for some materials.

Looking at the MIG ammo items.

Looking to add some chipping and possible rust. Maybe a dark wash and pin wash?

All new stuff to me and need to know how to do chipping and some rust?

So, hit me with your suggestions.....

I used Tamiya weathering sets (looks like makeup compacts), Vallejo washes, and Vallejo acrylics applied with a sponge for the chips.
