This is my first MoPac model. I built it last year. I was under the gun to get it finished for the St. Louis 2014 RPM meet and put together a presentation. This model took me 1 month 17 days to complete.

Charlie,

The best tip I can give is to study how the military modelers do their weathering work. I have spent hours on Youtube watching these guys. They have it down pat and they have lots of techniques to follow. Especially watch the videos on using AK Interactive products as well as Ammo of Mig Jemenez products. Mig really taught me a lot. You have to wade through some bad videos, but there are some really good ones in there. Dr. Cranky is very good, Scale Model Medic is great as well. Also follow some of the Fantasy and war gamers.
