This is just a leman russ I've finished recently. Luckily I was able to magnetize the turret so I could switch out the various cannons. Was hoping to get your opinions on my attempts at muddying it up or if I should leave it clean next time.

Looks like a fantastic job!
my personal opinion is nonmuddy. i think the new off the showroom floor to in service appearance are fine.
Just seems like the mud hides your good work!

The mud does look fantastic, but it draws a lot of focus from the rest of the model.

I agree with this, it really looks awesome!

Thanks for the comments! I'll remember them for next time.

Love it! Not to disagree with masses, but speaking from expierance, the instant a tank leaves the pavement mud starts flying. After an hour or so they are the dirtiest things you've laid eyes on. I think your rendition is spot on Dude! Great work!

Nice clean and dirty paintjob!. It gives the feel that it has been though some fightin.
