Finally ready for earth effects! (Patreon)

My friends, in the end, I combined that realistic and stylistic style on this model. Not just with the basic painting effects such as post-shading, but also with the main body of the tank and its armament. The side-mounted guns are really cool and full of details, so I picked them all out with different textures and shading. Basically, the same way a Warhammer miniature would be painted, but then I gave them some rust effects here and there.

Some of these surfaces give the model a very exciting contrast, such as the polished parts of the main cannons or the brass shells coming from the ammo drums.

I also treated the chipping and exhaust with rust-colored oil paints and once again arrived at that dreadful spot where I'm satisfied enough with the result that if it were for me, I wouldn't add any earth effects or additional weathering :D

But, of course, the rusty yet clean tracks would look out of place, so I'll have to find some balance between the dirt and what we already have on the model.

Wish me luck!
