- In the final part of this build series I show you the techniques I used to weather the Meng Leopard 2 A7+In in the unique three tone urban camouflage scheme. I used a mix of Enamels, oils and pigments to create realistic looking weathering effects.
Join me in this video for a complete step by step HOW to guide.
If I get enough interest in the scheme I am happy to look into creating a mask set for purchase through my site - www.workbenchhobbies.com

This was a master class Clayton! I am now in early 70’s and have returned to the hobby after around 55years ( I lost interest when I found that girls were far more deserving of my time I guess) and the amount of new products and techniques I found were overwhelming. My first few attempts at weathering my models of German AFV’s were a disaster, and the results almost made me quit again, and pay more attention to my long suffering wife.
However, with the help of master modellers like yourself and CZcams content, I have learned that ‘less is more’ as far as weathering is concerned. My latest models are a lot better because of the assistance, and guidance that I has been available to guys like myself over the last couple of years. I have not approached a build of modern armour as yet, but I agree that there are are some interesting subjects available to us now.
Anyway, I love your channel because you explain what you are doing in a way that guys like me can understand easily. I have to turn everything off at the bench now as ‘she who must be obeyed’ is calling. She has found my hiding spot,and sounds annoyed, so wish me luck. Keep the content coming my friend, and cheers for now. Coming dearest!
Thanks for sharing Gary. So pleased you are finding the content useful 🙏🍻
Wow!!! What great weathering process, you made it look easy, I definitely will be re-watching this video to hone my technics. Thanks for sharing your great work.
Thank you to you for watching. There’s a lot of work goes into making these videos, so it’s encouraging to see it helping people like you enjoy this incredible hobby.
Appreciate you joining in the conversation 🙏
Excellent outcome Clayton - it was even more impressive in the flesh at ScaleACT last weekend!! 😉This tutorial and your presentation at the show explain your techniques, the products and your process really well. Looking forward to your next series of tutorials ✈🛩😁 Lastly, thanks for taking the time to have a chat and look over my newbie 1/48 Panzer 38(t), it meant a lot and is/was very appreciated. Cheers.
Having a chat was an absolute pleasure Andrew. So great to have been able to connect. And congratulations on the model! You did a great job and should be proud 💪
Few builds in the pipeline but will look to throw some wings at you one day 😇🥳😛😎
Wonderful finish Clayton, I love your chill vibes presentation as well. It really compliments your work.
That’s awesome. Thank you. It’s a fine line between chill and boring 😩😂🍻 Thanks for joining in.
I wasn’t expecting an upload this early but this definetly was a okradany suprise and thanks for showing the process,definetly will help in the M60 I am making :)
Pleasant suprise I meant.
I’m full of surprises aren’t I? 🎉
Wonder what the next build will be?🤔 That will be a surprise for even me I suspect!
Good luck with the m60! 💥
The opening shots really showed off the disruptive urban cammo on this cat but the different colours really tested the weathering stages introducing other challenges.
I really think you brought the best out of this beast with the colours and textures you used.
Clayton you've really knocked this out of the park mate.
Best wishes mate.
Thanks Steve. Always so generous with your comments. Really love having you as part of this community 🙏
I love the Leopard 2 tanks. True, the 2A8 promises to be depressing. At the beginning of the nineties, 12.7 mm machine guns were no longer enough. 25-30 mm guns should be installed. Great work. Thanks to the author.
I’m so glad you enjoyed this one. It’s funny…I thought this video series would have been more popular. Apparently we are the only ones who love Leopard 2s 😆 Appreciate your comments 💪
Stunning results mate. These tutorials are so easy to watch, so thanks for putting them together.
In your next Q&A I would love to hear your opinion on painting handles for armour.
Thanks again.
So pleased to hear that. Thank you.
Tell me specifically what you would like to know re painting handles? Do you mean chipping them?
Let me know and I’ll do my best to address it for you 😎
Absolutely loved this series. Inspired me to buy a Leopard 2A7+ and Ill be attempting this scheme. Thanks
Thanks Russ. I absolutely love hearing it when people are inspired to buy the kit I’m working on. Makes me feel like I’m doing my job 💪
Appreciate you letting me know 🙏 and thanks for the support 🍻🍀
Absolutely awesome
Thanks! Glad you liked it 😊
Great build the masking camouflage was excellent and the weather in was was justice excellent
Thank you. That’s very kind 🙏👍🔥
Looks really good Clayton, a kit to be proud of.
Thank you. That’s very kind
The paint and weathering are just perfect. There is A excellent balance between being subtle And bringing out the details at the same time.
Thank you. There’s a fine line with weathering isn’t there? Glad you think I’ve managed to hit the sweet spot.
Thanks for joining the conversation 🍻
looks awesome 👏
Thank you! Cheers!
Cool
Thanks again 😉
This is terrific! Nicely done, Clayton!
Thanks so much. It’s an interesting scheme isn’t it! Glad you like it. So..what’s next 🤔😂
Appreciate your comments 🙏
Good job, came out superb…

If that was the only thing you got out of this video then I think I need to go back to the drawing board!
