Thank you Mark!

A lot of weathering has been done.
First a dry brushing and sponge chipping using AK RC Rotbraun then a dry brushing and sponge chipping of Vallejo German Grey to get a multi layer chipping effect.
That was followed with my normal armor weathering process. First using a overall filter of Mig Brown. Then a dot filter using Model Master Dark Tan, Classic White and Dark Yellow. The dots are pulled in the direction of gravity and gives a dirty dusty effect and the look of rain water pulling the dirt down the sides of the armor. The last step in weathering was a pin wash using Mig Dark Wash. After that dried out a overall coat of Mr. Super Clear Flat was sprayed.

I'm happy with the outcome so far, I hope you guys are enjoying this build.
Thanks for looking in!

Excellent work Clint! Your weathering is spot on! Plenty of dust and dirt, as it should be, but not going overboard on the chipping, as so many tend to do. Bravo! :shoutout:

Got the figures built and attached to some old med bottles to make painting easier.

John and Mark Thank you!

Got some painting done on the figures using Andrea and Vallejo paint.
First I would like to show you what my wife calls the redneck paint shaker.

It's really simple, take your jigsaw with a old dull blade then hose clamp your paint bottle to the blade, plug it in and pull the trigger. Perfectly mixed paint with out buying one of them expensive paint shakers. Just make sure the lid is on tight so far I haven't made that mistake.

Then the figures all painted up, not a bad set but still not resin quality.
