How did you go by doing the white wash alloy?

Nice job on the winter camo and the pics look great.

Thanks.

The white wash is probably the laziest way you can do it.

Get a beat up brush. Preferably fairly hard, not too loose and covering a good area. I used white enamel (as it's what I had) but you can use whatever white paint, I'm sure. I basically dabbed the brush in, wiped 70% of the excess off and since this was my first time with it, the Pak has more brushed on white-wash, and I stayed away from hard edges, to give it that torn look, and the Hanomag has a mix of dabbed and brushed. Dabbed looks overall better, but brush-strokes add a really rough field look to it. I like both.

Weathered MiG-15, done with brown, black, tan and thinner. Made to look filthy, grimy, greasy, my favorite.

It looks like they just pulled it out of the bone yard.
Good job.

That scheme looks pretty darn good AS, thanks for the post. I thought my tiger camo Mig was good enough, but now I might have to pick one of these up.

Thanks guys.

Olifant, this was my instant choice, because it is the Russian scheme, and to me it was classic.

The thing I didn't notice when I got mine is the antenna was missing. I looked high and low... no antenna.
