I've been looking at several YouTube videos on winter white wash camo. All are kind of confusing to follow or intimidating to do. I want to do it on a T-34 tank. Who has the easiest, pain-free method?
I will find a cheap mule tank kit of sorts somewhere to try it myself.
Any helpful tips would be appreciated.

I used hair spay, let dry a day or so, spray a white, thinned or not, light coats. Let dry,use you wife’s toothbrush dipped in water to scrub away the hairspray.

I paint the tank in the base color, then use a paint brush that would match what a 1/35 scale crew would use to apply a white wash in the field and have at it with some Flat White paint.
My goal is to make the tank look scruffy like the real ones did.

I grind up white chalk and.mix it into some water and like Stik apply it with a brush of appropriate width. When it dries I use a stiff brush to remove the clumps...and if there's an area I don't like, it's easily removed with more water.

I do the hairspray method,a basecoat followed by a light coat of hairspray,as soon as a drys a top coat of acrylic white,as soon as it drys,with a damp brush gently scrape or scratch however much white you want to remove.After the the thing drys,seal it up,filter and weather.
