- Lighter paint chips were simulated using LifeColor “4BO Var” (UA239), applied with a sponge or brush.
- Darker paint chips were simulated using Vallejo Model Color “German Camouflage Black Brown” (70822), applied with a sponge, fine brush or flicked from the end of a brush.
- The exhaust was painted with Vallejo “Black Grey” (70862) and the various colours of the LifeColor rust set.
- The tracks were treated with the various colours of the LifeColor rust set, applied with a sponge.
- Before further weathering, a 1:2 mixture of Mr.Color “Clear Gloss” (46) and Mr.Color Leveling Thinner was sprayed over the entire model.
- The entire model was washed with a dilute mixture of Winsor & Newton “Raw Umber” and “Lamp Black” oil paints (ratio about 5:1) in enamel thinners – the excess being cleaned up with a dry brush or cotton bud.
- To simulate a degree of paint variation and fading, dots of oil paint (Winsor & Newton “Raw Umber”, “Payne’s Grey”, “Permanent Magenta”, “Transparent White”, and AMMO Oilbrusher “Olive Green”, “Medium Grey”, “Yellow”, “Black”) were added. The dots were drawn down vertically with a flat brush.
- To the some of the vertical sides AMMO Oilbrusher “Starship Filth”, “Starship Bay Sludge”, Winsor & Newton “Burnt Umber”, “Burnt Sienna” and Abteilung 502 “Light Rust Brown” (Abt060) were added. Then, using a flat brush, the oil paint was drawn down the side to simulate streaks of dirt or rust.
- The entire model was sprayed with a 1:2 mixture of Mr.Color “Flat Clear” (182) and Mr.Color Leveling Thinner.
- AMMO “Europe Earth”, “Dark Earth”, “Rubble” and “Brick Dust” pigments were brushed onto the vehicle and tracks, to varying degrees, and fixed with AMMO “Pigment Fixer” (A.MIG-3000), added by brush.
- AK Interactive “Dark Steel” (AK086) pigment was brushed on onto the raised parts of the tracks in contact with the ground or running gear.
