Many thanks mates. Here's some paint. I like to work from dark to light shades. The steel plates for protection of the soldiers was given a rust colour to start with, I then sprayed on hairspray and covered up with water thinned light greyblue paint layers. Next is to make scratches and rusty spots.

Best regards ! AG.

This is how far I got with the ramp after salt/hairspray and different layers of greyblue.
Best regards ! AG.
