In this week's update, I have applied some yellow to select areas of the dreadnought - right knee, right wrist, and left under belly areas for that classic Iron Warriors look. These stripes are not quite perfect, but that doesn't stress me. I will patch up with a little bit more black, but the intent is to then weather the stripes and give them a worn and scratched look regardless. This approach always disguises any imperfections in the hazard stripes. Its really a pro-tip that even average painters can benefit from.
Weathering has also been applied across the main body of the dreadnought. This began with a Nuln Oil wash all over to get into the recesses and make it look worn. Using a sponge, I have then applied some lighter silver and black patches to give the overall impression of this dreadnought not being on his first rodeo. Perhaps even mid-battle.
Plans for the week ahead are to add decals and think about the base in more detail.

I really like the build up of texture with your weathering!
