Re: how do you weather a model AFV?
The glib answer is --- one at a time.
There are many articles, even books, on how to weather model tanks. There are many different techniques, as well. My suggestion is to visit a forum where there are members showing their "builds", and follow along. One I can suggest is planetArmor planetArmor - Home
Cheers

Re: how do you weather a model AFV?
MIG productions makes great pigments that are indespensible for weathering models. Also learning techniques like filters, washes and drybrushing also are important. Paint chipping and rust are more advanced but bascially practice and time is what it takes
