Panzer III - Weathering

Finally the fun stuff.  Making the model look used.  Desert tanks took a lot of abuse from the elements.  I've seen reference where a lot of the paint is worn off.  This might look like overkill, but it's actually not too bad.. this is all done with Vallejo acrylic paint and a little paint brush.

 

The tools were painted to look like wood.. hard to tell in this pic.. the flash was a little too bright.

 

 

Next up..weathering the lower hull.
