Depends what you're building but usually as follows: Primer, paint(s), gloss coat, decals, gloss coat (to seal decals), then weathering products and finally a matt coat to seal the lot.

First remark, Tamiya paint is meant for an airbrush. Some colors can also be applied with a brush, but they dry very fast. In that case you wouldn't need to prepare the model with a primer either. I use the primer mostly because the model has building materials with different colors. Only if painting is done and decals are applied over a gloss varnish (if paint wasn't glossy), and with a gloss seal over them, should you use any wash. I mostly use colored wash. Try to remove most of it and only leave it in the panel lines. At last use a dull coat.

I like it. Will it be part of a diorama?

Thomas E.
Yes, indeed this is planned. Some day ... I hope. The plan is to show various scenes in a little town in Normandy from 1938 (pre war) to the end of the war. The same scenery and the same buildings, but various vehicles and uniforms.
I will send a building report of the butcher shop to Modellversium in the next days.
And: Thank you for comment and likes.
