Thanks Gary... It was looking so so until the final stages of weathering were on... then I had that "oh yeah" moment

Thank you Stuart. It has a few goofs, but overall I’m quite happy with it.

I’m glad Mike asked about your technique here because it was extremely successful, Carlos! How did you form the rolled Milliput into shapes? I always use a form to create the initial shape, and then I layer the putty over that. What was that the case here? Did you wet the clay to keep it smooth first then add texture later?

No, I just rolled it flat on either my work table or the cutting mat on it…. The texture came from there as both have a slightly roughened surface. I then shaped it into rectangles of the appropriate sizes, folded into shape, and placed them on the vehicle.
