 Subject:  Weathering example - CND Sherman in NormandyList thread.  
  
 Date:  Jul 5, 2008
 From:  Paul A. Owen 
Here is a colour photograph of a Canadian Sherman in Normandy. Note the mud and dust. The dust is the primary weathering agent and has lightened the olive drab considerably. The dried mud is a very light colour.

What surprises me is that the transmission housing is relatively clean, even underneath.
