Hi Rick, that is just not a kit that has been painted and weathered, it is a kit that has been turned into a work of art by a true master of this hobby, what would look good, is a diorama of a person taking photos of the 'tank' best regards from Australia 👍👍👍
Brilliant idea to build a tank that stands in a graveyard for discarded material! Perfectly built and aged - looks like the original! Breathtaking! Greetings, John from Northern Germany
An interesting idea with the graveyard for discarded material in perfect implementation. The result speaks for themthelves! Just great, Rick. Greetings, Joachim
Looking fantastic Rick! It would be so easy to get carried away with a boneyard wreck, but you’ve exercised the perfect amount of restraint with the rust and weathering.
Awesome job of weathering. I enjoy watching how different genre of builders do different painting techniques. That's how I learn tricks and tips for my own models. Great video.
Hi Rick. Great video on a desert camouflage paint job. Especially the green color areas I find great. The show and describe the colors I find very important. The result is so great. The rusting with oil and pigments looks very real.
Thanks for sharing. Lovely video. Have a DAK panzer III J in construction so your tips will really help with paint and weathering this light coloured desert vehicle. Lots of stuff going on. Trying to, “keep it interesting”. Thanks again.
I really like the way you layer over areas. It produces an effect that brings the model to life and makes it more three dimensional (if that makes sense). It's something that I've been using more and more. A little goes a long way especially if there is more coming.
this is very useful ! I have just painted my 1/16 Bulldog in MERDC camo .( see channel .) lovely job Rick , sensitive touch ! love the M-60 it is brutal looking > best wishes from Wales ! 😍😍🙏🙏
The FM on Army Camouflage ( Forgot the number . It came out in the 60s ) had a proscribed pattern for every vehicle type that was supposed to be followed exactly in pattern and colors for a particular area of operational color scheme. The pattern had to be drawn by hand so true exactness was difficult but was followed very well for a few years. As time went on , following the pattern exactly was ignored more or less. But most commanders liked to have a kind of uniform pattern for their company. The Mech and Motorized companies I was in ,were distinctive so that we could tell by pattern and color which company the vehicle belonged to . Ironically one company was distinctive because they had no common pattern but used the same colors. All used the same issue paint but the way it was prepped for painting led to some variation in cclor in the end result. I'm sure this seems wrong to some.. but I can tell you with certainty it happened. The colors you used in this video are very good. I saw tanks in that generat pattern and color. The modern Nato 3 color pattern follows the original idea of a uniform pattern and is very uniform in color and pattern. .Thanks.. I am looking forward to building this kit .

I really like the masking reveal of the older finish, and specifically the canibalized parts removal. It really pops and tells a story
Thank you, Kevin.

I diffidently want to try one of these at some point. But I have to learn too much first.
You should! The best way to learn is by doing. Good luck and thanks for watching.
