As for the "Wash Job" on my M-41, though I have done "Weathering" on many of my HO model train cars, I didn't do it on the tank. That's just REAL dust from sitting in my trophy cabinet for so many years. But I deliberately left it there because it was much more realistic as to where a tank actually gathers dust.

Thanks a million bud!
I still need to get with you on the "Weathering" thing. I am not sure how to do that with the bf-109 balsa model I am now building.
Also, my B-17 ( Memphis Belle) has real dust from hanging off the garage roof!! It does look "weathered"
I was going to take it down, blow off only superficial dust, then weather the landing gear with grease, etc. I hope you don't mind "off the wall" questions!
