This one is getting close now I think! I pulled out some of Vallejo's new Weathering Effects that I had the chance to get my hands on. I am liking the Mud and Grass mix! Like One-Stop-Shopping! LOL! Pulled out some European Thick Mud to build up the areas... I still need to bang around with some light weathering on other areas, and of course general cleanup, but things are moving in the right direction I think! As always...thanks for tuning in!!

Looks awesome Todd! Hope I get to see it in person some time.
Built-in grass in the weathering mix? That's pretty nifty.

Thanks Leon! Yes they are. I am not sure if they have been fully distributed yet...meaning Stevens or MMD getting them out to the vendors, but they are out! There is a pretty good size line of these. With any luck I will try a couple more on this before I am done....LOL!! Oil and grease stuff for sure! Thanks Dupes! I will try and keep this from the bin my friend...LOL! Should be with me at one of the shows I would think. At least on the table with me. Simple mix to make actually, but definable something nice to have out of the bottle. Especially when not doing a full dio...just tracks and such!. Thanks ER! I am liking the mix a lot right now...LOL! The Thick Mud makes a nice compliment to the pair!

Well Hot diggity Todd! That is some very slick ground work and, the beastie parked on it is a mighty fine build. Taking notes on weathering if you don't mind.
