Thanks guys. Weathering is now done. Final step is to fit both cars on base and then whole project is ready.

Small preview of diorama:



I need to get bigger background cloth as this is bigger than most of my subjects.

Weathering is done with MIG pigments "apocalyptic earth". Not single application but five layers so that dust appears to accumulate over time, just like it does in real life. And that's about it. With fuel cans I used hairspray method to get chipped paint.

Admirable attention to detail, a great diorama.
Any plans on building the War Rig?

Nope, although I was planning to build Razor Cola and actually started it already. But it seems that third interceptor based vehicle in a row is bit much and I need to make tank or two before really sinking my teeth into that project
