On the hull it self I was not 100% happy With the how all the splash's came out, so With a big soft brusk 'wiped ' it to remove some, and With Vallejo russian green+ some of the light greens from the AK 4BO set I gently added a few spots here and ther to cover some of the overly done splashing on the side of the hull

Making tarp the 'John Tolcher ' way.

tea bag paper superglued to a a piece of old sprue. A heavy layer of vallejo paint ( not air version, it is to thin) Wait until almost dry, and cut loose. Now you have a 'rubber' like piece to work with. Wrinkel it in place and let it dry overnight

Max,
Beautiful weathering and paint! All the daily kudos on the heavy realism factor. My only cautionary is to watch your suspension in the rear to keep an eye out for sag. Your suspension arms looked like they had great return when you flicked them in your video tho' so hopefully Asiatam has modded their KV lower hull in respect to this issue.
regards,
Painless
