Amazing infantry gun, how did you achieve that streaking white-wash effect?

Amazing infantry gun, how did you achieve that streaking white-wash effect?

I painted the gun in the normal colours for vehicle camouflage and then after painting white over the main areas I dipped my paintbrush in water and began to do vertical strokes up and down the white areas.
The white began to wash away and I moved the brush down to give the bottom of the gun more attention as I wanted to make it look like the whitewash has been removed by the gun being manhandled through long grass. Hope that helps

Some more progress on my Ardennes Germans, I currently have enough figures to field a standard CoC platoon and an Ardennes rifle platoon from the Bloody Bucket PSC.
In order to field a Sturm platoon I need 16 figures armed with the STG44, here's the first 8 of them.

The full squad together.

That's the Sturm platoon completed with another 8 figures added armed with the STG44.
They are a mixture of manufacturers including Warlord and Empress.

Second squad all together.

The Sturm platoon is made up of a HQ of an Officer and 3 figures with grenade launchers, an LMG squad with 2 MG42's and 2 squads of 8 men armed with STG44's.
Green troops but heavily armed, should make for a different experience on the tabletop.

The two STG44 squads.

Painting my way through the lock down Colin, looking forward to getting back to the table.
All good with me and mine, hope it's the same for you and Andy.
