Thx Sir.

Not much, just sprayed it Mr Color Burn Iron, which looks pretty good in itself then added some Rust/Heavy Rust pastel chalks, the exhaust stains were sprayed with a mix of some Light Gray shade and white.

Nice job.  hard to tell, but did you give the decals a coat of anything to help them set after applying them? And again hard to tell, did you give it an overall flat finish coat?

Nice work.
