turret painted, with flash, but color is more real here

My first attempt at chipping... don't want to overdo it on this vehicle...
tried to apply some scratches, not really working yet...
exhaust weathered
pin wash to do some accents with van dijke brown

bolts painted red, a wash first
did some dots for the first time to try some weathering
happy with result, except on the door, oil-dots left some pale spots...
same on the nose...
What's a good way to:1 avoid this, 2: getting rid of this
tried to apply some dust on the wheels
front recovered
need to work on the excess here
detail of the damaged steps
turret complete, light has been knocked off... hence it's position
dusted wheels
a second layer in the thread pattern is needed

Bart GoesaertBest wishes for the new year to all... Some progress with this one, after a long time, it was finally time to paint this baby... will soon start to paint the details so I can add all the tools etc... Been looking for references, but it seems like the fire extinguisher, tools etc.. were more not mounted then mounted on this vehicle...

Nathan DempseyLooking good so far! I do love wheeled armor and this one looks interesting. Watching.

Bart Goesaertthx, just found this: tapatalk.com/groups/..-issues-t136833.html and this.... [img1]&key=bf2bc10d4bbc8ea84a9afc8e472fa9e082f868f8c6aff1a38da2681e1fbb38b7
Sigh... won't change it I think, then it is the Latrun vehicle... (mind the red fire extinguishers...)

Bart GoesaertMy first attempt at chipping... now it's good to restrain myself, don't want it to resemble a rustbucket that pretends to be operational...

Bart Goesaerttried the oil-dot method, worked good on the turret, the hull is something different... getting some nasty spots over there....
so I have 2 questions:
1: what can be done to avoid this in the future
2: How to solve this.

Bart GoesaertOversprayed the front and damaged parts. Pics up soon. Also did an attempt to dust the spare wheel... example looks promising to me (where did we hear that before... ). Tried this for starters: scaledracula.com/how..iUdRo21wUf2toThHsXRk

Rui SIt's looking good Bart.
Have you tried some white spirit on the dots? Normally before using oils I seal the base with gloss varnish. So never had this problem.

Bart GoesaertThx, I tried, think I just waited too long before smearing it out... Surface per surface... Lesson learned...

Kerry COXBart. I saw your build on the Takom FB site. As good as one would expect from you mate. Great from all angles. 👍 🙂

Peter HardyYou must be happy with it Bart, excellent finish and interesting subject. Big thumbs up from me mate!

Bart GoesaertThx mates, I'm happy with it. At Nathan, I've found it a well engineered kit, that builds as a breeze. Just protect the handle above the door (left) very good, because it snaps easily, and it is on a place where you will want to hold the model.
