Weathering the tracks.

In my attempt to make the tracks of the T34 tank look weathered and worn I resorted to my usual trick of a wash of thinned black paint. Not a lot to the technique - merely dip the brush in the diluted paint and then dab it onto the track and let it flow naturally into the nooks and crannies. The nature of the liquid is that it carries most of the pigment of the paint into the lows of where it is dropped onto and as it dries it leaves that nice highlight. Although I forgot to take a picture once the black wash had dried I repeated the process with a sand coloured paint just to add variety!
