A big sigh of relief when I opened the box, very happy with the result and glad I didn't waste several hundred dollars.
6x8" Intuos3 and microSD card for scale.

Done! About 7 weeks of night work, I'm happy with it!

Wow! Excellent job!

I especially like the weathering effects you applied.

How did you make the rust-marks, etc?
Dilluted brown perhaps?

Yeah. once the base coats are dry, slather watered down browns and yellows and let it collect in the crevices and joints. Qtips are handy to sop up the wash that runs where you don't want. start light and layer more to get it darker. then apply fairly thick base color paint over the wash in light passes to let the paint build up some texture. superglue + fine sand are good to build up heavy textures. once dry you can paint/wash over that like anything else.

Thanks for the tips!
In the future, I'll be on the lookout for more of your stuff.

By the way, I don't know if you already know, but your Baserunner is featured on Kotaku!
