Any idea how to do a paint wash for mud on the legs and stuff?

Drybrushing it's the exact opposite technique of washover.
While for drybrushing you need a thick, little watered paint, for a washover you need a very diluted painting.
Pretty much as Clala says.
Also, you'll have a better time if you do the washover on an already painted surface, be it painted by yourself (much better) or factory paint.
Practice as much as you need on spare parts, because the wash over is easily removed.
You can do both techniques for a better result.
-Paint.
-Washover
-drybrush.
For mud stains, i suggest a wash over effect, and then hand paint some stains with a very thick paint.
You can use various colour. Black, brown and green, for example.
Another trick is to paint with brown, with painture with a little bit of water, and while it's fresh apply a bit of fabric on top of it, to remove the painture from the surfaces with more volume. You can move the fabric to make some blurred stains. Practice is the key.
I did a subtle wash.over/drybrushing on Buzzer, and the figure looks completely different.
