Hello,
This time a rather different approach from classic kits. 1/18th scale, 21st Century Toy almost already built aircraft, from China… Prepainted and just enhanced with my own mixtures (washes, inks, pigments, chalks, etc…)
Make your opinion but dont focus on details that not the point !
1/ Looks pretty ugl…
2/ After make up.
3/ Focus on the nose.
4/ After…
5/ Process…
6/ Last one … Dont forget that Flying Tigers birds were pretty covered with dust…
As usual I’m speechless with that weathering job! Just awesome!
If you don’t mind I gonna save the picture of this p-40 to my hard drive…
Could you post some kind of “my weathering technique step-by-step” ?? 
pleaseeee
I’m with Von Alfalfa

Beutifull work Kullervo. ThX for the pics. Great stuff…Guy
Hard to believe that is the same model! Love your weathering style, would also like to see a blow-by-blow tutorial on how you do it. I actually have the exact same P-40 sitting on my dresser. May have to weather mine up now too! [swg]
Excellent! Next time someone ask why would someone want to weather an AC, I’ll point them to this thread.
Hello Von Alfaya,
Really sorry but I have no step by step process.
But, its really easy to achieve such result.
Start with some light post shading if you want to change a bit the colors, than overshade with dark mix panel lines, put some powders mixed with thinner for the dust, use a sharp brush to make the vertical stains and finish with dark washes… Should be done after 5 or 6 hours of very fun work !
Hope it might help !

Great weathering work there on that P40![tup]
Not trying to contaminate your topic but i have recently written a crude 101 on weathering for the Natural Metal Finish group build just two weeks ago:
