very nice, what techniques did you use for the weathering? and were they quick and easy to do?

The short answer is the FW Masterclass book...

The slightly longer answer is

Spraygun, sponging effects and then oil paint and white spirit washes. These are the mainstay of the techniques used

;) Great work, mate. Love the weathering effect. Makes my Shadowsword look like it just came from a Forgeworld although if you look closely you can see scratches, mud & a few rust spots.
Maybe just finished its first campaign!

tracks should be dirtier IMO, but still very nice mate!

I'm just kicking off a Vostroyan Baneblade based on the local motorised guard unit here in Moscow and a little of the folklore around it.

I have the masterclass book but some of the listed products are tough to get here. From the look of your piece the techniques are worth mastering.

Start with the easy ones. sponge yup! oil paint and white spirit yup! weathering powder is maybe trickier. They were pretty much all the materials used.

I have a GW spray gun, not an airbrush yet.
