Your weathering is absolutely stunning and realistic - Best I have seen for quite some time - The ''Dirt / Mud'' Specks / Splatter. - How is that done to get the ''raised'' effects ?

Many thanks for your kind compliments! These are the works of my main modeler named "Art Instructor" who's been building for me for over 10 years. He once wrote an article on "Making of the Famo and Sd.Ah.116" telling how he built and weathered them:

In short, the "raised" effects were achieved by mixing fine sand with base paint.
