There several videos on YouTube on how the military modelers use them for scratches, water streaks, rust, etc.  So no need to repeat their methods here but I tried them out today on a Rapido X31A and enjoyed the exercise.  One improvement is if you overdo it a quick pass with a damp Q-Tip removes all sins.  Besides using the watercolor pencils I used regular colored pencils to add some light and dark spots to the panels.
