Same procedure as the dust. This time a little darker for better contrast.

Takom Jagdpanther G1 Weathering step 1. Dust

It’s hard to tell when the weathering starts. Almost everything after the painting is weathering. But at this stage it’s obviously weathering. I started with dust and dry mud. To speed up the drying I used a hairdryer. Then I could see the results much faster and correct small mistakes. It takes more than 24h for it to completely dry.   Before I go on with the darker mud it’s good if the dust is completely dry or else it mixes the darker mud and make it lighter.
I wasn’t satisfied with the result of the rust wash on the track so I gave it a darker wash with some earth tone in it.
