Ok, I made some progress on paint this little guy: Just one pic and, please, do not consider the arms, I'll repaint both. About the livery, I think it needs a bit of lights to looks better, as the face and beret. Oh man, paint a tank is much easier than paint a tanker

Coming along fine me thinks. For a beret I once used tamiya weathering master soot to give it a very matt and sort of textured finish.

The cap badge will be the crunch. I've never been satisfied with mine.

I repainted the arms. Applied the base color (AMMO flesh plus a bit of dark rust). Let it dry to try the oils again, without those terrible smudges (I hope).
