HAllo everybody

I have nearly complete my first submarine everbuild and my first ship after 40 years.

I have a small question how to make a sub older then new strait from the box. As a modeller of AFV vehicles I used thinner with oil paint etc can somebody give me some info please and also the rust parts. I see photo's that on deck many light spots how can I do this aswell a sub is well overloaded by the salt water

I have MIG pigments ready for use so any comments is very welcom to make the sub as they has to be look like

Thanks and regards

Hi Brandon!
The first and foremost question would be, to what degree of weathering do you want to achieve, mate? Basically, standard drybrushing and washing methods used on other modeling subjects fit well into submarine weathering...have you checked out the resources that we have here on the website yet? There are some fantastic tips and techniques revealed in these articles, sailor, most definitely worth reading!
Dive into the "Features" section, Brandon, I think you may find something to help you along with your project!

Hope this helps
