The masked Panel lines are airbrushed with ammo shaders (a Mix of navy blue and grime') 

The result after the Liquid mask is removed. 

Now the fun part! Paint the panels (witch we're covered in the Last step) with the Base colors of the paint scheme, you can do the same Base colors or use the lighter color (e.g. If the Base is FS35237 you can use FS36320 for the inside). Go gently over the edges of panels to get that Spot paint Look. 

In the next step tone everything a littel bit down and blend It together with the lightest Base color (Here FS36375) extremly dilluted. The result should Look like this... 

 

 

 

 

The well worn Out brushes... 

For the Filter: Oil paint (Starship filth), thinner and two worn Out brushes... 

 

Our victim: the left wing. 

First step: apply some thinner over the entire surface. 

Apply some randome dots with the Oil paint to the wet surface. 

Dip one of the worn out brushes into thinner and wipe It off, the brush must be slightly moistend. 

Now the fun part: "Attack" the dots with the moistend brush and spread the result around. The step goes as followed: spread the paint - Clean the brush - moistend the brush -spread again - repeat till you are satisfied with the result.
Be careful: don't overdo It. The base color will be darker when a gloss or matt Cote is applied ("sometimes less is more...")  

Spread some more.. 

The result... 

In the end It should Look like the wing in the right (left part without Filter, right part with  

Use a Clean brush and some thinner to Clean Up some parts of the Spot painting. 

 

 

Here the finished wing with a gloss Cote applied. 

The same technique is applied on the bombs with light blue and white Oil paints. 

The fuselage with the Filter...
