Post subject:  Critique this drybrushing please

I'm trying to expand my painting abilities. Wanted to practice drybrushing so I tried to make my bomb disposal robot look well used instead of shiny and brand new. I guess its looks ok.

All of the treads and weapons look fine.

Just be careful with the white of the body and arms, they look shiny next to the work you've done. Maybe some grease drippings (under rivets on arms), scuffs (right front end), or dents (right rear corner)?

I agree, you did great with the parts you weathered but it makes the rest stand out. Look at some real life dump trucks and bull dozers for some real life grime you can add.

totally agree, you did really good with the parts you did but the rest needs some dirtiness too.
You are one of my new favs to check out your customs, keep them coming

everyone already said my first thought, it looks good but now the white part looks like a toy and the painted parts look like a well done model or something.

Thanks for the comments and suggestions. I'm gonna give the full weathering a try. I just hope I don't F it up. I really like this thing.

For the white part, if you use a fine to medium grade sand-paper on certain surfaces, the weathering will turn out much better. Just a tip before you try anything.
