I actually wanted to take pictures of the Panzer sitting in real mud, but with the minus -26c outside, there is no mud to be found. :crazy:

Great mud. I've been mixing elmer's glue, brown acrylic, a little real dirt and mig mud pigment and it works pretty well, but I'd really like to hear your method. It really looks good. I like the glossy wet look. Your's look like it would drip on my carpet! That's pretty cool.

Nice weathering. It does look like something that was dragged out of a bog 50 years after WW2 ended.
