Mud is pigment + Rectified turpentine. Then, once dry, Matt varnish.

This is all because I mentioned FSN's bratwurst, isn't it? And now I'm being propositioned via the internet!?
I appreciate the hospitality Barbarian, but I'm good brother. ;)
That's interesting about the mud; what do you mean by pigment? Paint? I'm guessing mixing them together makes a thick consistency you can kind of 'spackle' on? Definitely interesting, though in reality I'm probably too lazy to try it when it comes right down to it... I'm always in such a hurry to get the stuff on the table. I've got approximately 60 vehicles (of various nations, theaters, and eras) sitting in the garage, primed and waiting for a paint job... ~X( ~X( ~X(
Thanks. For everything :P

Pigment is a powder.
I use a dry brush to "dust" the different parts.
I then blow on the model (Techno, keep calm)
Then with another brush dipped into the Turpentine, I wet the pigment by capillarity.
Where it needs more mud, I put more pigment on the wet parts (tracks).
I then wait.
I use a pencil to make some metallic corections.
Then varnish.
If you don't have an Hetzer, and make me a decent offer for this one, I can sell it to you. :)

Barbarian,
Thanks for the tutorial, that's very interesting. I don't ned any Hezers right now; more truthfully, I can't afford any Hetzers right now! :-[ :-[
But, again, I appreciate you laying out the technique for this, the vehicle looks great.
And dammit Phil, control yourself! ;D ;D ;D
V/R,
Jack
