@Trevor Benjamin Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site on google and Im in the hacking process atm. Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
Awesome video!! Your assessment about mine-rollers looking like doo-doo while the vehicle that it is attached to looks in better shape is quite accurate. Having been around these things for almost 40 years (20 years in military and 20 years working on a military installation as a civilian employee) I do get to see these quite often. Most of the time the mine-rollers & mine-plows will be parked in some obscure corner of the vehicle parking area and FORGOTTEN about. There, they will accumulate an incredible amount of rust, dirt, leaks, and critter nests. Nobody really wants to deal with these things mainly because they are a pain in the butt to maintain, heavy as all get-outs, and a vehicle really cannot maneuver like it should when these things are attached, as well as other reasons. Besides the US Army mentality (at least when I was in 1981-2001) was just to blow through a minefield - you literally could NOT convince a tank unit that a mine-roller/plow will save lives/vehicles. Often times, it is looked down upon IF your vehicle is selected to have a mine-roller/plow attached, like the vehicle & crew suck or are expendable or something like that. In my opinion after being around mine-rollers/plows for so long, you were quite "generous" with the paint fading affect and mud. You probably could add about 10 tons of rust affects on those rollers and still not be "accurate" enough.
I'm a airplanes builder and this technique is really nice, i want to construct my first tank but here in Argentina is very expensive, i love your work!!!!
I know the video is old, but I recently have constructed the original version of BMR-3 and followed your case exactly here, and I have to say that it is the best model I ever made. You have made me so much better! Thanks!
Your videos could end up being the same techniques and same ways of painting for each vehicle (which would still be awesome, it's great to watch you paint), but you end up finding new techniques almost every week and keeping it extra fresh. It's like we're following along with your modelling journey too. Keep up the great work Uncle!
I really like the idea of air brushing weathering effects instead of using 6 different products but your air brushing skills have to be top notch to pull it off.
Practice practice and practice. It's a new skill and before long you will get the hang of it. I'm fairly new to airbrushing and can get frustrated with it but I'm getting better.
Martin brings his mad skillz on every video. I'm sitting here just dumbstruck at how good these are painted - then shot and edited for all the Interwebs to enjoy. You're cool, dude. Very cool. My skills with my ( new ) Iwata Neo airbrush are years behind you.
every time I am watching your videos I’m being like “wow, the way how this man works with colour applying is amazing”. It’s brilliant! I feel like I’m a child who has just seen a miracle
Night Shift, I discovered your channel several weeks ago and so glad I did. I have picked up so many hints and tips which I have already used in a T34 85 build. One can read as many books as you want but to see the effects being used in a video just makes it so much easier. Your builds are four letter f ing brilliant. I love the fact that you are so humble regarding your talents and it is refreshing to hear a sense of humour when building.. Even though my chosen models relate to WW2, your channel has become the first thing I log onto on a Friday evening after work. I have no desire to build a BMR 3 but the effects you have used on this will be used on my current Sherman build. Absolutely love your modeling style!!!

Hey Uncle Night Shift, i have some Hobby Boss 1:72 scale aircrafts, (made three out of the fours) and those need Mr.color paints, unfortunatly, I couldn't really find them since I live in France and those aren't really shiped everywhere, so my substitute were Revell Aqua colors and I think it did a great job as replacement paints.
I love how you steer clear from modulating with the airbrush and try different techniques. This is more like black basing for motteling aircraft, I love it, keep exploring uncle nightshift
I’m building planes mostly so all this techniques are bread and butter for plane scale modelling, few weeks ago I’ve started my first armour build the Ferdinand. I’ve found your channel and I’ve said to myself ok you need to forget what you’ve learn so far and use all this new techniques to o this build and now you telling me different? 😂😂😂 I’m joking of course because I’ve learned a lot from your videos and I can use this in anything I’ll build in the future! Thanks!
Awesome start, looks very good so far! And yeah, really enjoy that you are trying something different to see how it works. Saving time is also a good thing. So please keep doing stuff like this as I enjoy learning new things.
These videos are sooo helpful, im a new modeler and I just got a tamiya Kv-2 and an tamiya Panther G with some workable metal tracks and I'm excited to use some of the techniques I got from you on them!
My honest opinion is 100,000/10 because it looks awesome so far and I can’t wait for the finished model 👍. And if you have a all time favourite horror movie can u tell us in your next video that would be awesome 🤙🤘
Very informative and entertaining video. I agree that more work with the airbrush does offer better results and reduces other weathering techniques later on. Great work 👍🏻
Very nice job! And; excellent techniques. I agree with your choice of paints. AK Real Colors and Tamiya paints are top notch. I have used them interchangeably. Ease of use and best of results. Maybe a slight nod to Tamiya for lesser expense per milliliter. Always find new techniques that I have never used of interest. It's a good Friday when the modeling videos come out. See ya'll next week.
You did not once mention that you’re not a very good airbrusher - really great to see this approach, and proof that your airskillz are impressive! Thank you for the upload -
I don't know if you'll read this, but I wanted to say thanks. I've picked up a paintbrush for the first time in over seven years because of how inspiring your videos are. Sure, I'm only doing wargames stuff. Sure I suck, but I've managed to re-kindle my love for something I'd forgotten about. Thank you Uncle NightShift, keep doing your thing. One note, if I may, the Wilder textured earth products are basically impossible to find at the moment, could you cover some other products/suggestions?
Amazing video again, no wonder you're referred to by almost every other YT modeler. Really appreciated the paint mix % shown, still believe you could make vids longer or even broke up into more parts to show more detail and techniques.
Instantly thought of "Ambient Occlusion" when you were doing the airbrush 'grime' pass. Ambient Occlusion is a term from 3D modelling and especially video games, and refers to a shading technique used to approximate light and shadow. AO often results in details - especially recesses - becoming darker than their surroundings. Looks just like the results of this technique!
Professional, but not rigid.
Highly informative, but not pompous.
Casual, and with a good sense of humour.
I love watching your videos.
You airbrush technique you were asking a name for is called “Post Shading”.....very common technique for aircraft modelers! Great work.....
Plus we some marbling here too
also black basing
Also shadow spoting
Her: Any hobbies?
Me: Does building armour models vicariously through Night Shift count?

I forgot it was Friday, then this, how cool is that....
I'm a airplanes builder and this technique is really nice, i want to construct my first tank but here in Argentina is very expensive, i love your work!!!!
The best intro no loud music its not long and its no too collerfull its fantastisk
Diorama idea: the tank would hit a mine and an explosion would be cast in front of the vehicle
No, if make the diorama explosion , the radioactive armor is need to break
That's a pretty cool idea! The rollers and arms could have blackened char marks.
what about the mine exploded just before the diorama and you put an incense stick inside the diorama to make the mine hole freshly smoking ?
@@eflbrth was thinking more of a led light put in the smoke
This is the best modelling tutorial channel on TH-cam!!
With a NightWatch vid, I like before watching.
Night Shift*
Uncle Night Shift saves my mental health during quarantine.
the semester ends today so i have no point to paying attention to school, id rather spend my time watching something useful like pre weathering
I know the video is old, but I recently have constructed the original version of BMR-3 and followed your case exactly here, and I have to say that it is the best model I ever made. You have made me so much better! Thanks!
I absolutely love your channel! I have just been modeling for 6 months. And you are 👌
This channel got me in to modeling
Your videos could end up being the same techniques and same ways of painting for each vehicle (which would still be awesome, it's great to watch you paint), but you end up finding new techniques almost every week and keeping it extra fresh. It's like we're following along with your modelling journey too. Keep up the great work Uncle!
My favorite part of Friday- new Uncle Night Shift video. 😊
Today, i got 90% on a french exam, and now night shift sends out a new video. Best reward ever!
I really like the idea of air brushing weathering effects instead of using 6 different products but your air brushing skills have to be top notch to pull it off.
I just got my first airbrush, so I'm excited to try a bunch of the ideas I've seen on your videos. Thanks for sharing!

It’s always a good day when night shift uploads
This video made me cry with joy.
every time I am watching your videos I’m being like “wow, the way how this man works with colour applying is amazing”. It’s brilliant! I feel like I’m a child who has just seen a miracle
i love watching all your videos its very calming and just nice, sometimes i rewatch the older videos while cooking and it just relaxes me a whole lot
Friday night top viewing as all ways, learning more with every build thanks as all ways.
really like the dust color on chipping fluid idea
Always love your videos gets better every week learning so much from you
This model turned out very interesting and authentic looking. It was a joy to watch the process. Well-done!!
I'm not done yet, we still have a few episodes to go! :)

I dont make or paint models, I'm not particularly interested in tanks, I love this channel!
This is a certified hood classic
Back in the day many armor modelers called these techniques Shadow Painting. Outstanding video! A++
When I get the notification from this channle I know we are close to freedom!!! Love your work man!
One of the few good things to come out of each week. I don't feel ready to face the day if I haven't watched the new video yet🤟

Uncle Night Shift...It is known as preshading - Great build...Always enjoy your videos
This is brilliant!! I am working on a vehicle with a similar shade/s of green and this video comes at the perfect time for me....woo hoo!!
I love how you steer clear from modulating with the airbrush and try different techniques. This is more like black basing for motteling aircraft, I love it, keep exploring uncle nightshift
Extremely informative. Great video nightshift!
It's too hard waiting for your next video the whole week! Uncle Shift, your are the best!
Looking good. Eagerly wishing the days away to get to next Fridays offering

It looks beautiful great paint job and weathering
Great work NS. Would love to see some mobile artillery in the future.
These videos are sooo helpful, im a new modeler and I just got a tamiya Kv-2 and an tamiya Panther G with some workable metal tracks and I'm excited to use some of the techniques I got from you on them!
Good morning Nightshift, that is so e beast you are constructing, well done so far, keep safe and well mate, best regards from Australia

I was thinking about getting an airbrush and this really helps thx
It's completely gonna change how you paint models, very good investment!
Airbrush is essential, you save a lot of time. And a better result, of course
@@NightShiftScaleModels awsome
@@emiliogadeamelgar4896 thx 4 letting me know!
7:43 usually you'd call it a type of pre-shading which you would usually do on the primer before any paint
Suprová robota . Už jsem zvědav na konec
I love your models and your skill
God, every one of your videos makes me want to get back to painting my models. You do such an amazing job :)
Love the new look of the videos Uncle Nightshift! Can't wait to see more of the tank 😎
You're an artist. [thumbs up]
This kit reminds me of the Assault Breacher Vehicle which is based on the M1 Abrams chassis
It basically is the Russian version of the ABV.
Underrated channel my friend.

Great to see you experimenting with different approaches! Looking forward to seeing how it turns out.

Already looking great!

Very nicely done
I like, good job, and time saver techniques
Martin, thank you for the interesting process.
Keep up the good work
Perfect result again, bravo.
Tres belle mise en peinture vivement le vieillissement
I'm so glad you're doing a modern russian subject, it's my favorite kind.
And friday just got a little better :D
Love the format uncle!
Excellent video and a good idea, I'm gonna try the dirt and dust chipping on a T72 I'm working on, you can apply hairspray over a clear coat can't ya?
Superb as normal really like this idea weathering with an airbrush perhaps you can call it spotaling
Thank you , Uncle Martin .
