This is my first armor kit and am ready to wash my tamiya M41 bulldog and was wondering what all you guys use for washes?
I have read articles on using oils, enamels, and acrylics. Any pros and cons on all these types and what color suggetions should I use to mix to make the wash? I have read rust, raw umber, burnt sienna, black or combinations. Just looking for a little experience with mixing a good wash to apply.
The bulldog is in OD green and the turret and hull has a coat of future, road wheels have a coat of enamel clear, long story. Just need to make sure that whatever wash I use is compatible with both coats of clear.
Since this is my first armor model I am not looking for any type of effect other then to add shadow and depth with the wash as well as make the tank look like it is in regular service but has not just rolled off the battlefield. Thanks in advance.
