OK...I will be first to comment.
First, nice job on metallic wearing......looks good, but, maybe should be more of a "rust" colorinstead of silver color.
Also, maybe a coating of "dullcoat" would take the shine off the whole tank.
Keep in mind that I am NO expert!!!!
Good job as far as I can tell!!!!

Very nicely done, but I'd be inclined to use a little 'Rustall' on the metal parts, as exposed steel would start to show signs of rust within hours.
Damned good job though, and I hope my efforts are as good.
