Excellent effect on the exhausts . That is some of the most realistic weathering I've seen .

I'd agree that the metallic effects are excellent, but I'd disagree slightly about about the exhausts.....In my opinion they could do with drilling out a bit deeper and having a much darker wash used to cover the rust pigment inside the opening.  

Just my (nit-picky) 2p worth!  

All the best
