Grossbekohlungsanlage

When I saw this kit I really liked it. But when I opened the box, I was a little disappointed. The colours were horrendous and it just looked like a piece of plastic.
So I started with a bit of weathering. 

 

Some pieces test-fitted.

The model put in place on its future pitch. Lovely clean and green colours. Just like the real one 🙁 

This already looks a lot better. Added some coal to the bunker and used a lot of dark washes. 

Even with flash light it looks acceptable now. In the meantime, I've a lot more experience with weathering, but for a first effort it's alright
