DAK Panzer IV

Here is my Tamiya Panzer IV done in Africa Korps. This is the old motorized model. I built this to experiment with dust weathering. I am not done (hatches, etc.) and not sure where to go next. The last time I posted was Oct f last year. I will never finish a campaign in time. Comments appreciated. What you do with it at this stage?

As MP said a pinwash with some darker brown would go well and I would softly drybrush the higher ridges on the top of the hull and turret with german grey to simulate where the dust has been rubbed-off by the crew.
 
Don't worry about how long it takes Robert. I am slower than most here and have a number of OLD builds that I pull out and address with some updates from time to time. The only one that you have to get done in a short time frame is the Micro Modeler Month build and it has to be done between March 1 and 31. The good thing is that the requirement is for the kit to be a small scale.
 
Great suggestions. I now present the new and improved version. I got some figures to sit on the front of the turret. I think the pin wash should be done with a darker color. I need to use a lighter grey for highlights.
