I wanted something with a camouflaged scheme, but picked this one because the pattern was all straight lines
Everything brush painted, maybe I'll look into getting an airbrush further on into the hobby.
I tried by hand at a little bit of weathering with a line wash and some metal paint streaks to simulate places with peeled paint.

JEEZE! for 55 years I worried about this problem....was I alone??!! Now, after half a century, I can rest easy! This one model is about all I have left of my once large childhood model collection. Thanks for posting!

That looks really good. I want to do a Stuka now. Good weathering.

after over half-a-century... that's not 'weathering'; that's outright 'patina' BBY! https://www.google.com/search?q=vide...peXNVq_5Op&oq=
