Terribly tatty toy tank titivation

 

A while back I acquired a pair of nasty plastic Abrams tanks in about 1/50 scale. They can be seen in this post from 2016. This second - and mismatched - pair followed and were undercoated in black many months ago. I noticed them this morning while looking for something quite unrelated and decided to threaten them with the dangerous end of a paintbrush. 

A few hours later I devoted 20 minutes or so to the paintwork and here is the result. They’ll do. 

My painting reference. Well, more inspiration than reference really as I can’t claim to have followed any pattern.
