Thanks guys! it has taken a long time to finally have a job, even if it is 20-25hrs a week. And classes start the 25th of this month. So many distractions from my tank works!
@Vik, I used a small stick of that carrycase foam, and that was the way I applied the Vomit brown rust to the Tin-bitz and the two work nicely together to make a multi-layered rust effect, in fact, one of the pipes the VB cracked on it's own and looks like it is flaky, as peeling rust!
@Rutgerman, Thanks, so far to my knowledge it is one of the most unique camo patterns out there as I have not seen anyone bu me use it in Google or Bing searches.
@Monkey, Hehe, yeah that 'ole double edged sword thing. Thanks, Vik suggested it with the foam sponge application, ad i suspect that now he sees how well it can work, he may feel comfortable doing it himself!

*big grin* always use a test subject^^
but seriously i had it done earlier on but it is the right consistecy of the paint that does the trick when apling.... at least for me... a feat i have yet to master...
one thing that has teached me your camo work here is that you have not to tacle wider areas of tank srufaces as i have to fill... camo not only breaks up the outline very good but makes it somewhat easier to know what to do with the given space of a tankhide...my sides i am constanly riddled what to to with them... i cant let them stay that unattened and not too plain looking....maybe the next tank will get a sort of camo too...but thats future music for now...

Vik, any tank can be camoed up! some tanks were plain, ( WW-II comes to mind as early on Panzers were a dark grey, and Shermans came in OD green.) Automatically Appended Next Post: So, I decided that the Perun's exhaust was looking too clean, and decieded to do the same sort of deal the Bogatytr got on it's exhausts on the pipes of the Perun!
1st stage, brushed on more tin bitz in spots and sprinkled salt on.
[/img] 
[/img] 
[/img] 
[/img] 
[/img] 
2nd stage was to ad a coat of bolt gun metal over the salt and bare Tin Bitz.
[/img] 
[/img] 
[/img] 
Now, once that dries up, I can brush off the excess paint over the salt and go to 3rd step.

well this is just classical...once you step a step further into perfection you see the recent work with more matured eyes... so it is only logical that you tried this methode on the perun! good work! and i so had to repress some laughter as i saw that snowsprinkled exhausts at first^^

i truly wonder how the glue holds the salt in place... is it difficult to paint on that mixture afterwards? or does the slat crumble off once you start the painting?

Some of the salt fell off while painting the other color, but I used the freshly applied spots of the base color of Tin Bitz to hold the salt on, (have to allow the paint to dry)
Now the salt rubbed away
[/img] 
[/img] 
[/img] 
[/img] 
[/img] 
[/img] 
As you all can see, I got a more realistic, raggedy and uneven wear patter for the base of the rust to have with the metal left to show that rust is indeed happening to the exhaust pipes, now to add the vomit brown to the tinbt sections and get that effect that worked on T-300's pipes!

Yes, it really is simple and easy to work with thing, add more of the color as the rust base, salt, paint over with clean looking metal color, all the while waiting for the paints to dry each step, and then rub off the salt, then add the vomit brown, voila!

Thanks again! I am striving to have tanks with a sense of character and history to them....even though they never really existed for real life machines., Makes me wonder what some tools, welding gear and a junk yard could make!

Your Tank(s) definately have character! Stout and Mean like the Imperial Guard.That would be awesome, however personally, I'm more comfortable with styrene and an xacto than I am with a socket set.

Drop any steel tank onto a wet deathworld for several months of campaigning and the environment would soon cause this sort of thing, very nice job man!
