They look great but I'm not sure I can do it to my paint job

If in doubt, paint it black.

That was my first thought,  especially in 6mm.

I usually paint my tanks "clean" so tracks are gunmetal colour drybrushed over black.

In the rasputitsa pretty much everything from the engine deck down is shades of sticky mud, in winter it's a mix of mud and snow, in high summer varying shades of dust.

Meh! I prefer "pretty" over "real," so bite me!

The more weathering the better 

They're jolly nice Ithoriel 

Indeed they are !

I'm with Ithoriel on this; I just can't bring myself to do it

Tracks for 6mm - darkest gunmetal I can get. Larger scales same the a vajero rust wash.

I think the "rusty look" rather works for me

Did you consider using pigment ?
It's fun to use.

Holy moley, that's rather good.

Thanks   I feel another purchase coming on

Will these work at 6mm?

Looks like 'real' is making a come back!
