Saw this pic and really wanted to build it. Fortunately there were decals for it so I sourced a kit and decals. As evident by the pic, it’s very weathered. My skills aren’t high but have it a try. I didn’t use heavy coats of paint at it looks faded in several areas. I used a thin pencil to highlight panel lines, smeared and rubbed it in, and got some of the dirty look. I brushed a flat full coat that helped spread the pencil elsewhere. Picked up a buddy pod from another modeler to finish it up.

Nice work.  Just enough weathering to make it look real.
