Another shelf queen getting some much need attention. Bronco's (GWH) 1/35 sWS. It's sat in a coat of base coloured paint for a few months so it was time for some heavy weathering. AK diorama weathering texture paste is an awesome product to replicate a build up of mud and crud. I used their dry mud, dark mud and wet mud. You can mix it with tea leaves for more texture or just brush it on neat. Either way the fact it is an acrylic paste means blending and clean up is really simple to manage. I've been building it up in layers along with some enamel mud effects and a little pigment.
There are still a few more layers to go with the mud texture and enamels and I've yet to get the oils out to add the finishing touches, but this is work on the running gear so far. The cab and load bed assemblies are just dry fitted for now.
Close up pics like these bare all, so small defects and tidy up of existing work can be improved on. The tyres will also have more effects added to the tread area. I had a fight on my hands fitting the kit tracks and there are a few places that another small application of mud will improve the overall look. I also noticed the seam line on the kit tracks is way too prominent in places so will need removing.
