I would be interested in seeing more videos about brush painting, maybe showing two similar models with one being brush painted and the other being airbrush painted (so you and we can compare and contrast). Also, as you find problems in future model builds, maybe turn on your video camera and film how you try to deal with your problems. Nice job on your videos!
Hi there I'm Duncan from England United Kingdom and just got into ww2 aircraft modeling and diaromas Im 44 and just started I've brought a load of airfix and revell kits from my hobby shop and amazon I've done a spitfire and a b25 North American Mitchell.. I've some German and Japanese zeros to build plus a battle of Britain memorial set and an extra Lancaster bomber.. My first few paint jobs ain't turning out any good so I brought an airbrush but ain't used it yet bef3i use the airbrush I'm going to try your method. Thank you for the upload please do more. I've subscribed to your channel.
Outstanding series of videos man. Thank you. I have started making plastic hand painted models of airplanes after 35 years largely based on your videos. I don't want to mess with airbrushing and I consider myself OK with hand painting. That's how we did things in India in the 70s and 80s. Your videos add many layers to the art.
Fabulous work has been great layering in your techniques to my builds. Getting more confident in my skills!
I keep coming back to these videos. We miss you!
That’s awesome! Can you do more hand painting videos?
Just a great tutorial. Exactly what I needed to know how to do. As a beginner in modeling videos like this are a tremendous help. Thanks.
Yet again best model making videos on TH-cam I’m returning to modelling after 40 years and painting has moved on a massive leap thanks very much so clear and detailed and concise 👍
Looks awesome. Really enjoy all your videos but the beginner brush painting ones are my favorite
You find diluting with water is just as effective than tamiya thinner? I'm hand brushing using tamiya acrylics. Thanks
Great series, specially for beginners. Thanks for sharing!
Enjoyed that. The door on starboard side of cockpit was removable but not hinged as displayed here
That is a remarkable result. It looks so real. I must try it myself.
Nice result. I only hand paint small parts but it was still useful to see all the weathering techniques and I might try handpainting my next 1/72nd model. One tip when painting the tyres is to put a drop of neat thinners into the seam where the tyre meets the wheel rim. It then makes the black paint flow round really nicely. And a question - how did you attach the eleastic rigging for the radio wire? Thank you/
Thanks John....I don't use thinners but I do sometimes use a panel line wash, like Tamiya's, for the rut where the tyre and the hub meet. Same principle I guess :) The rigging is attached with tiny (really tiny) drop of super glue.
Hello, hope you are well. Again amazing the weathering done. Thanks for those explanations. I still have a problem with terpentine trick. I've tried but it's nearly instantly dry🙄. Maybe im using wrong product. Could you please share details on it? Many thanks.
Hey Emmanuel, if you are having trouble with diluting oils in turpentine, I would suggest you check the oil paints you are using. Standard oil paints take several hours to dry, as does turpentine. I use Daler and Rowney Artists turpentine. Most of my oils are Winsor and Newton. If the problems remain, then you can try oil paints made specifically for scale modelling. These are a little more expensive. Good luck :)
Thanks - great tutorial (and thanks especially for showing us the way you do the wheels)! 10/10 for quality on this series., perfect for beginnings and really shows what can be achieved without an airbrush.
Awesome vid! Learned a lot thank you!
What size brush are you using? That needlepoint is fantastic.
Fantastic video series mate. Good job.
why the smoke stains after matt varnish and not before ?
I’ve been a model builder for over 60 years. I love brush painting but have not had the confidence to do much of it. That’s for all the ideas.
Thanks Mike :)
Cracking job, as always. Thanks very much for the tips and explanations.
Thanks for the detailed info on techniques, painting sequence and products used.
It is all great info for someone like me who is getting back into modelling, after a 40 years break.
The techniques and products have changed vastly over the years.
Thanks again for the nice tutorial! Do you apply the pastel pouder with water only?
great work!
Thank you! Cheers!
Great series of videos! Can you please tell me or link the brushes you use? Am I correct in thinking they are synthetic?
Thanks for watching and glad the videos proved helpful. Yes I am using synthetic brushes but I am not very particular about the make. I buy the middle of pack type of brushes, neither the cheapest nor the most expensive. Just something that feels decent and after a few kits I have identified the brushes that seem to work best for me. I am sorry I don't have a more specific answer. But experiment with the brushes and enjoy the journey :)
As a newby learned a lot thank-you very precise
How long to wait for the wash to dry?
Very nice tutorial. Thank you for making it!
Beginners guides ftw!
Hi a quick question on applying wash. What’s the purpose of applying a wash? Thanks.
So, a wash serves many purposes.
It will highlight the panel lines and rivets on the kit that may otherwise get lost in paint, particularly if the paint is dark. It also helps other details pop up and become more visible. Secondly, if you want a weathered look for your kit, particularly if you are making a tank (or AFV), a wash is good place to start building the grime and mud build up. Applying a wash also helps even out the overall look of the kit. However, as with most things in model making, whether you use a wash or not, how much you use it, is all up to you and the final look of the kit that makes you happy :)
Thanks for the detailed response. Much appreciated!!
Thanks for the beginning video series! Ive learned alot by watching them. Keep up the good work on model building and filming! I really appreciate your transparency when a mistake is made. Helps me to try new things when building my own. THANKS AGAIN
Thanks so much for uploading this series! If I could make a suggestion from the video editing side, I feel that the videos could use a bit of strategic time lapse. Real time is good to show the techniques but I feel as though we don't need to see whole sections painted in real time especially if you're gonna make a jump cut to a different section. Also, the music is a bit too distracting for me.
Thanks again for your helpful tutorials!
Thanks Monkey4soul. So, the music in one section in the video, I forgot to turn it down...he he he...sorry about that. Will be more careful from hence forth. About the time lapse, hmmm....i do use it now and then, in fact in this video....what you think are jump cuts are actually jumps plus time lapse...he he he. Anyway, I promise I will try to make the videos more smooth. Thanks again for watching :)
I watched your older guide and you did the oil wash before the chipping, in this, however, you did the chipping before the oil wash. I think I said that right 😂. Anyway, I'm working on my first "real" attempt at a model plane and I'm sort of confused about what to do first. Thanks for the great tortorials!
Hey Henry. First off, thanks for watching the videos. So, what came first the chicken or the egg? Lol. Whether to oil wash the kit before or after the chipping depends on the final effect that you want. If you chip before the oil wash, the wash will also affect the chipping, making it dull and it will look like old chipping that has now collected soot and dust. If you chip the kit after the oil wash, the chips will look fresh, something the aircraft picked up in its last mission. So, when to chip the kit becomes a personal preference. Sometimes, I do some chipping before the wash and then add some high lihgts after. Hope that helps. Good luck with the build and stay safe.
@@scalemodellingmadness4114 Thank you so much! That’ll really help 😂!
@@scalemodellingmadness4114 I guess, I have a question about the varnish too, is it best to do the matte varnish before or after the chipping?
Such an amazing video, great teacher as well!! Keep doing these videos, if this is what a beginner should be doing, thats all I want to be then, “a beginner”!😂
Awesome
Ace mate cheers
😁👍
Very nice result and a well made series, just binge watched all 4 parts. You've helped me find the green I need to paint an Australian Spitfire Vc as that shade looks spot on. Incidentally you should have stuck with your original green as RAF green has an olive component. Under lock down circumstances I reckon you've played a blinder, cheers from Aus 🇦🇺
Unbelievable
It's a great tutorial and it's also SO satisfying to watch!
Glad you enjoyed it :) Thanks.
Thank you for the time and effort you put into this 4-part series. It was of great interest to me, but am reluctant to use your techniques as I fear a loss of detail as a result of panel lines etc getting filled with paint. I use Tamiya and Mr. Hobby paints and sometimes Vallejo. Tamiya paints are difficult to brush on I have found, it doesn't attach to the surface and it gets messy when I try to make it 'stick.' What am I doing wrong? Anyway, thanks again - liked and subscribed :-)
this has given me confidence to do my first kit! thank you!!
Glad to hear that Brad. Go ahead and take the plunge. I can guarantee you that this hobby will bring you years and years of joy. Good luck :)
This is an exceptional set of videos that I’ve found really inspirational. Thank you
As someone just returning to the hobby can I just say this series has been excellent. Really useful and informative and it would be great to see more (if you choose to do so). Thanks for taking the time to do these.
Requesting some soviet heli like mi 8 or mi 17 . I enjoyed series a lot. Thanks.
Excellent - most enjoyable! One question: a band appeared around the rear fuselage in part 4 - was it painted or was it a decal. I don't think I missed anything whilst watching!
Thanks for watching Barry, I am not sure but as I remember it the tail band is a decal that comes with the kit. :)
Dear Friend, I would like to know how many models you are making yearly, or monthly?
Thanks for doing this series of videos, great stuff.
Great Job I Love It 👍
Thanks! 😄
Awesome video tutorials, I've really made progress by following your advice. Thanks so much for such clear instructions!
Hey, glad the videos proved helpful. Thanks for watching and good luck with your build :)
Outstanding brush painting techniques!! I've been advised to start with hand brush model kits before air brush. Your videos will be great references.
Glad it was helpful! Good luck Don :)
Your work is just mind-blowing.
Impressive work! Have just re-started after 30+ years, and have real issues with the enamel odors, want to switch to acrylic but was worried about brushstrokes. This video shows what is possible, with enough patience :)
Glad the videos proved helpful. Best of luck with your projects and thanks for watching :)
Great job! I really learned a lot watching it.
Love ur tutorials, would love to see how u handle the German ww2 planes using hand painting, looks like it would be hard. Can u pre shade without airbrush?
Hey Ken...I will shortly be attempting a mottled pattern with a brush. The thing is it will take oil paints and its something I haven't done in decades...lol. But will practice a little and then have a go. Thanks for watching and the comment :)
Hank you. Now I know the secret of your popularity - make sure your videos are directed to beginners. Let's face it, we all have to start somewhere and your channel does just that. Please, continue with your good work and show us how it should be done. Many thanks, 👍👍👍 Mike
Thank you Mike. I am so glad that of all the videos I post, the ones about starting off in the hobby do the relatively better. I hope more people take up this fabulous hobby. Thanks for watching :)
Very useful series of videos! Can I ask: why do you use oil paints for the wash, and for the details after your matte coat?
So I use oils because of three reason, firstly, they are very safe. Oil paints are not aggressive and generally will not damage the underlying paint. Secondly, they take a long time to dry, so I can keep tweaking and tuning them till I am satisfied. And lastly, I like the way the oil wash looks. The matte coat I think I used Mr. Super Clear flat/matt. Hope that helps :)
Thanks again! Great tutorial with brushes.
You have a great patience to do that. Must learn it
watched all parts with great amusement! thanks a lot for this course!
I am happy that the videos proved helpful. thanks for watching.
Thank you for another awesome and very inspiring series! Please create more beginner videos. :)
Thanks Sir...I will surely make more in the future.
Thank you again for this video and the whole series! Best tutorials for beginners! There is so much to learn from them. I'm looking forward for the next beginner series. If i can give a suggestion please first upload detailed version and only then complete build with highlights. Thank you for your time and effort!!!
I don't want to sound ungrateful but it would be nice to see a handpaint 1/48 scale build with acrylic paint mottling (if that could be done in a acceptable manner)i.e FW190 or Bf109.
Thank you Tasic. I agree with you. I will from now on first upload the detailed series and then the complete build. As for the mottling, I have been trying to get good result with hand painting. I am sure I will be able to share something satisfactory with you soon. Thanks for watching the videos again :)
@@scalemodellingmadness4114 Thank you very very much for your time and effort!!! And We are looking forward to the new series. Please take your time (but not too much ;-) ;-) ) for preparing for the next build .
I just bought the Tamiya 1/48 Hawker Hurricane Mk I. I did not realize it was the same kit you painted here. It adds three figures to the Italeri kit.
I hit Send too quickly. Thanks for demonstrating your techniques. They have been very helpful to me
@@hun6444 Thank you hun644...I am glad that the videos proved helpful. Good luck with your build :)
Hello. I really enjoy your video and I want to start my own youtube channel building model kits. I just want to know what kind of camera do you use for overhead shots. I would appreciate if you can share it and have fun and stay safe.
Hey Jesse...I use two cameras for the shoot. Go pro 5. and Panasonic HC-V180. The Go Pro is for wide shot and the Panasonic is for close up shots. If you are starting off, then go for something like the Panasonic it is more suited for this kind of shooting. You can also make a camera arm for it using a cheap Ikea lamp, there are many videos on TH-cam that show you how. Good luck with the channel. Pls let me know if you have any more questions :)
@@scalemodellingmadness4114 Appreciate for the quick response. Your tutorial on hand brush was really amazing because that is what I am planning to use (no airbrush). It will be a challenge especially for a newbie but I am willing to learn. Hope for the best and perhaps you could look at my first build and give me some pointers or suggestions. Keep safe.
Hello! Great video, but sometime music is too loud. Can you tell me how many times need oil wash to dry? And if you can please built some soviet aircraft)
Hey buddy...I am really sorry, I forgot to lower the volume on the music in one section. Will be more careful from hence forth. Sorry again. Oil washes take a few hours to dry, I would suggest you wait for about an hour and wipe off the wash from a small section, if you see it is holding in the panel lines, wipe it all away, if the wash gets completely wiped away, reapply the wash and let it dry more. And yes, a Soviet aircraft is in the plans, I am Indian....you know half the aircraft we use are Soviet :)
@@scalemodellingmadness4114 thank you, friend!
The results are pretty amazing...!
Thanks Norm :)
Please, please, please, list all the supplies, materials and tools you use for these builds. Great work btw!
Thanks mate. There is nothing special that I use for the builds. Just some acrylic paints (usually Vallejo, Mig or AK). Some nice brushes. I use Tamiya extra thin cement for gluing and some super glue when required. If there is any specific product you want to know about, please let me know. :)
@@scalemodellingmadness4114 So some things you used I’ve made note of:
Molotow Liquid Chrome
Dealer Rowney Buff Titanium
Winton Oil Colour, burnt umber, black
Mig Elastic Rigging.
@@1romcat Hey Romcat, thanks. I will surely keep in mind your suggestion about listing the things I use during the build. It may not be possible to make a separate video, but I promise that from here on I will make every effort to explain what I am using and why in more detail in my beginner videos. Thanks again for watching and for the feed back. Also, any questions you have I will try and answer. Good luck :)
@@scalemodellingmadness4114 the Daler Rowney buff titanium you used that was an oil correct?
