Looks like you've found a good mix/combo for wet mud Leon.

Looks like you made some mudification, Leon!
My advice for the gloss coat: only spray the lower portions with it. Thus you get the impression that some of the mud has already dried and this will look more interesting. Also don't spray the whole wheels. Either inner area around the hubs or the outer side around the rubbers. Both is possible.
After that you could apply a filter of the same brown with some vertical streaks on the sideskirts where they are free from mud at the moment. This will tie the whole look really together.
Cheers, Tobi

Tobi,thanks for the advice on the gloss coat.I was thinking about painting some of the areas were the mud isn't so heavy with AK dry mud for a dry mud effect.

Ditto on the guys comments Leon. Also,I hope you don't mind but I think the clean camo would benefit from a filter or two to soften off the contrast between colours. P

I agree, it looks really nice. And I'm with Tobi, the upper part should look better dry.
