Spray the base colour (I've some spray German armour) the paint the random green and brown lines, next wash with a brown wash (agrax earth shade) the drybrush with middle stone, then middle stone mixed with buff

So you just paint them straight on? They almost look like they got a water-color like quality to them. Very nice.

Just goes to show that you can do good camo without an airbrush. Very nice!

I've not thought to paint the camo and then drybrush middlestone over the camo. I like the result.
I've got some Jagdpanthers to paint this weekend, I think I'll give this a go.

I just tried this technique. I already had some camo painted on these stugs. I gave them an all over wash in Vallejo sepia wash, and when that was dry I drybrushed the model in Middlestone. I'm really happy with the result. It really breaks up the camouflage and gives the model a weathered look.
