Hello Dakka; I've just won a bunch of Chimeras and Rhinos on ebay, but the look a bit plain and simple. I was wondering if anyone has any links to tutorials for modelling on things like camo mesh and general stowage to make them look a bit more like tanks that are actually being used. Weathering and painting camo schemes might also be useful. There used to be useful things like this on Games Workshop before it turned into an online catalogue.

Thanks in advance for any help

Look for Modeling Tanks and Military Vehicles by Sheppard Paine. Older reference I know, but it contains a load of really good reference materials for painting/modeling military vehicles.

Searching something like Armorama (which is like the DakkaDakka of military modelling) will likely give you plenty of results.
