winter paint on IL-2

I used washable kid's Crayola white paint on top of the green/brown summer camo...and then rubbed some off here and there...I am happy with it...

Hey jeeves thanks for the reply.How did u apply it?Bush it on,airbrush?did u thin it,and if so with water or what.thanks in advance(i just dont want to mess this up).

Well...

I figured in the war it was applied with a broom (or at least in the sources I have read it was this way)....so I figured the messier the better I used a regular paintbrush (of course at the time I didn't actually own an airbrush)....and the Crayola stuff is pretty watery to begin with so I just applied it.....waited a while for it to mostly dry...and then used a handiwipe to pull some of it off the high traffic areas....

But you might want to wait for others' replies before you just go with mine....

Here's an IPMS Stockholm article on the subject:
