Here is another recent project in 1/72nd scale I just completed.

Wanted to show you my 'Black Wash' method.

The M-977 truck was ALL glued together about 99%. Hand painted, black tire paint, decals first....now paint my cheap craft paint black wash all over it. No cracks left behind...LOL!!

I just mixed cheap black hobby craft paint in a jar of a little water. You can make it as strong as you like. It is always ready for many more models. The black wash does not go bad.

After the black wash has dried, then time for weathering and lights. Estimate about 2 hours max from box to completion. The container is a scaled down paper cut-out.
