Title: Weathering a heavy construction vehicle
Post by: Deem on March 29, 2026, 12:07:55 AM
I got this bulldozer, and it is made of pewter of all things.

I weathered it up with some fading and rust then later weathered it to match the environment it works in.

Suggest searching on-line for 'modeling tanks in mud' or similar.  The armor modelers do a lot with caked on mud and dirt, splashes, etc.
