Re: FIAT/OM 180T truck 6x2 1/24

My original idea was to paint this truck in the 2 color schema they had in the 70s. usually was a combo of silver/red or blue or cream over blue. here below some examples:







So I tried my way using a sail color and a fiat blue, this was the result






but then I realized the schema was too similar to italia Polizia di stato color..LOL, and I really prefer it to remain a commercial vehicle,


so I repainted the cream part and all become blue. then I started my weathering effect using the salt technique. I like it a lot cause remains very real in this scale









then washing the big grains away the effect becomes as I like..













and the overall look over his chassis..
