Hi all

I have finally finished the dirtying up process for the 17 PDR. I used a mixture of acrylic paints, enamel washes, various earth pigments and finally a dust layer using Sansodor and a dust oil paint.
I am now working on making the straps look old and used but the Grosgrain material is not good at accepting other colours, so its a work in progress while I experiment.
Thought I add some photos of the gun so far then add a final couple of photos when all the stowage has been added.

Regards
Gary

Some of those pix look like the real 1:1. Well done. Nice detail.
Best regards,
