With that much wear I would think the bumpers would be down to bare metal.

I understand the effect you are going for but to me it does seem WAY overdone. I have seen vehicle that have been sitting in a field for years and don't look this badly worn.  A vehicle in service would not be allowed to get that worn looking, as it would destroy what little camoflage value the paint had in the first place.

Thanks, but not sure I follow, as every one of these I've seen has been in either dark yellow or 3 tone camo. I'm going for this look....

I realize the chipping seems excessive now, but after details, drybrushing, filters and some snow, it should (hopefully) all blend.

Thanks for looking

Interesting look Brutus, but the weathering seems more apt for an Afrika Korps vehicle personally.
