Too much rust??? NAH IT'S FINE Here we go again mates, this technique always creates a lot of controversy no matter the subject or the modeller, but eh ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I dont mean to be so off topic but does someone know a tool to get back into an instagram account? I stupidly forgot my account password. I love any assistance you can give me!
@Joseph Ezra i really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and im in the hacking process now. I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
This is looking epic! One of my favourite parts of the weathering is doing all this beautiful chipping and oil work and then covering it all up with dust later! Heheh.....heh.....
Great tutorial, I have been binge watching all your uploads since I found your channel a few days ago. All your tutorials are well put together and the the way you explain what you are doing is easy to understand and as a bonus also a bit of fun. A big thanks mate from Australia!
Hello Martin. Just found your videos today. I subscribed and have been watching. I enjoy your personality and clearly you are very talented thank you for such great videos.
What can I say, I found them funny at the time of making this video, but I guess it gets old really fast. Trying new things all the time as I'm trying to have fun making each video.
The "break light" at 8:50 is in fact an electrical outlet, I advise you www.charfrancais.net if you want an infinite source of reference photos and documentation for French tanks. Another mistake, the part of the antenna that you paint as if it were leather was actually made of red rubber painted the same colour as the camouflage. However, the paint would fade quickly and let the red rubber show through.
Uncle nightshift i need help. I just got back into modeling after 15 years and i love armor i watch your videos daily. And i got a bunch of armor models for Christmas. I have a question reply to me so i can get information from the master armor modeler
There is alot of talented modelers on youtube and you are certanely one of them. I have however unsubbed to all of them and subbed to you. Why? Well, you are talented and make easy to understand tutorials but the voiceover is hilarious! It makes watching the videos an added bonus.
Oh, sorry to hear that! I was considering a night job as a security guard several years ago but decided against it. Now I work night shift as a scale modeller lol :)
I didn’t believe this was a 1/72 scale model till I saw the turret on the clothes peg 🥴 as usual your painting techniques are stunning, just breathtaking. I also would like to say how much I enjoy your cheery upbeat videos and your bloopers just goes to show we are all human 😂 I have a, well hundreds but will keep it to just one, how do you keep the points on your brushes so sharp/pointed? I have a few winsor & newton Kolinski 000 brushes, only a few months old but already they’re looking tired 😢 cost a fortune and haven’t lasted well at all my cheaper brushes seam to last much longer and cost 5 times less. I use mostly model colour, tamiya and life colour paints. What is your secret to sharp, defined points and what do you use to clean them ? Many thanks for all you do for us Meer mortals. Keep up the brilliant work you do. Kindest regards Kenny.
The Vallejo 000 brush I use is nothing fancy or special, the way I maintain it makes it almost as good as new and I've been using it for several years. I believe the key elements are: not dipping the brush all the way in paint, just the tip. Not using it for "harsh" stuff like mixing paints, I use a separate brush for that. Proper cleaning with lacquer thinner (Mr. color thinner) and making sure to "wipe away" all paint from its bristles using another brush. And of course, never apply enamel paints with those brushes. They'd dry up the bristles and make them frail.
Hi just wanted to ask from what website you order wilder weathering products i want give them a try beacause your models looks so damn good after weathering
I've got them directly through Adam Wilder and they were sent to me from Russia. There are several stores in Europe that sell his stuff. I'd suggest go visit his webpage, he has a list of resellers there.
I suspect that if you cornered a French military historian and asked them how long these FFI vehicles actually served you'd get a lot of mumbles. At least the 2nd Armored Division seemed to keep after the appearance their machines. I'd still like to see some good images for the post-war French Panthers, though they seemed to be mostly all olive drab, all the time.
rust's fine, these things are 1939 stock tanks that have been used to all hell (first the French fighting the Germans, then the Germans in occupying France, and now back to fighting the Ze Germans) and the FFI didn't exactly have time to polish all that rust off. Heck, if anything it should look even more worn out.
No kidding... I bought a set of Kolibri brushes recommended by another modeler, and they are terrible. After just a few uses they are all splayed out. Never buying them again.
2:13 I love your work but how can you not care about the tank you've passed this much time building and perfecting? Isn't building the thing for hours on end pushing you to learn more about it? And even if you only like building tanks and are otherwise just superficially interested in them, doesn't knowing for how much time they operated after being painted before being taken off the frontline affect how you paint them, how much damage they possibly could have on them? Or do you really not care at all about realism and would make a rust bucket out of a brand new Abrams tank on a whim? I understand artistic freedom but the line between it and pure disdain for the base material can be quite thin. Considering your apparent passion for modelling and me only having watched 10 or so of your videos this far I'm more than inclined to think the former but it's unfortunate that you have to constantly repeat that you aren't bothered by not doing things realistically and not knowing the basic history of the piece you're painting on.

I mean who doesn't love obliterating 3 months of work under a nice fat layer of dust?
Love the fact that the Vallejo "old wood"@9:09 has a danish declaration on it :) Great work Night Shift

Hello Martin. Just found your videos today. I subscribed and have been watching. I enjoy your personality and clearly you are very talented thank you for such great videos.
Flippin' awesome tutorial my man, I love the exhaust effects and that technique you used on the exposed pipe section. Wonderful!
Thanks Scott, that exhaust pipe trick is courtesy of Adam Wilder. It's a flippin' magic trick.
@@NightShiftScaleModels Yeah I've seen him do it on his channel but your's seem quicker and less complex.
It's actually the same thing for the most part, I just made it look faster on screen.
Laughing while learning. What a good time to be alive 😂
A new star was born............i like your funny way.
08:26 My head just exploded, that is an awesome trick. Thanks for sharing :D
Glad you found it useful!

What can I say, I found them funny at the time of making this video, but I guess it gets old really fast. Trying new things all the time as I'm trying to have fun making each video.

Brush soap!!!
I know some people actually use hair conditioner when their brushes start acting up.

Unfortunately I don't have any kit that I could build like that in my stash, sorry mate. Maybe in the future.
Lol..good sense of humor.

Agree; rust on sheet metal = yes; rust on cast steel for operational vehicles = no thank you.
No kidding... I bought a set of Kolibri brushes recommended by another modeler, and they are terrible. After just a few uses they are all splayed out. Never buying them again.
Hey, at least they'll be good for applying enamels, oil paints and blending!
