I used the Vallejo Afrika Korp color set. For the base I used the standard PZ Grey. Then Over it I went with Desert Brown, then Finally the Golden Brown and a little light sand for Hilites.

Thanks man. It's so much better than the "Out of the Box" version.

I remember a local Armor Preservation Society group gave me the "silk purse our of a sow's ear" prize. Geepers, I need to dig that out again, airmancurran1, to see if mine looks half as good as yours.
Wow. This is some High praise here. Thank you for this. Now, Let's see that Touch Panzer. :thumbup:

Mike.
Thank you man. I couldn't agree more. Tanks look better when munged up. Makes them look tough.

Thanks Meter. I added a new Pic for you. Since your Head Lamp comment, I can't "Unsee it". So, now I get the proper covers. A small detail that makes a world of difference. Thank you for addressing this so I can take my modeling to the next level.
