Greetings all, I am from Chile

I have registered in your forum because I need someone to guide me how to paint a 1:35 scale model I have of the LCVP landing craft Italeri. I would place it once finished a diorama representing "Omaha Beach" and that the model requires effects "weathering" to make visible in the hull the action of sea water on the painting, besides the rust I've seen in most LCVPs models, that appear on the Internet

       Now I have the general tone paint, model master 2055 "U.S. NAVY BLUE GREY". All I've done so far is to paint all structural parts to suggest humbrol 94 carries scrapes wood if the finished model

      Hopefully you can help me

Hey condor. I'd start a thread in armorama as well as model shipwrights for this. They'll have many answers for you in short order.

I appreciate it that I could support with a presentation of the topic I want to develop: A LCVP landing craft that reached Omaha Beach, and transporting soldiers are at it protect of German machine gun fire
