This worked very well for T-72 tracks etc. My short cut back in the day was a coat of Floquil Antique Bronze (sounds wrong but looks right, its a metallic dark brown) plus a nice dark wash, dust and dirt highlights drybrushed and chaulk dust aka pigments. For a vehicles in the field I’d start with tire-black and build up layers of dust, dirt & grime accumulating as weathered effects.
Weathering looks nice and for a scale model is really a matter of personal taste as to what looks right. Even if black is the actual color of the track due to scale effect on color black will be too dark on a scale model. If parade ground or just washed & cleaned vehicle is the goal, I think a tire-black or dark gray would work as a base coat color.
Thank you for the pictures, much appreciated.įWIW - in my opinion once those vehicles are out in the dirt the actual color of the track metal becomes largely irrelevant as the vehicle moves around and dust, dirt & grime accumulate. Basic Color Prior to 1938, all RKKA vehicles, both armored and soft-skin, were painted in a dark olive green color designated Green 3B.
