No magic involved, just practice. I'm sure there were a lot of models went to trash in his early days of modelling. You either leave as a bad modeller or you live long enough to see yourself become good... very good 😂😂
@@franklinlewis6059 +10 years and a model for a month will get you there. My be not this good, cause it takes a different perspective and an artist touch but not everyone is created equal. So even if you can not become this good, you will become a pro modeller and build fantastic pieces, but patience is the key.
To add on to what others have said here- if you want to get better, make a "timeline" of models. For example, I'm a sucker for the German 3-tone color scheme, so I've started doing a line of 1:72 tanks, all German, all 3-tone, all weathered for the same environment. Each one gets the date of completion penned on the bottom, so I can line them up in the order I built them in order to look and see how I've progressed.
@@bageled_meme2690 Real fun fact. It's called the Lend Lease Program. "Under Lend-Lease, 4,102 M4A2 medium tanks were sent to the Soviet Union. Of these, 2,007 were equipped with the original 75 mm main gun." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lend-Lease_Sherman_tanks#Soviet_Union
It's hard to believe this video is over a year old already! I love rewatching old content although I'm not a modeler, but it's just so interesting and entertaining!
Without a doubt the best modeling channel in TH-cam. I’m an old school Tread Head that was brought up on The Verlinden Way back in the 90s. I have watched all of your videos. Some multiple times. Only one small criticism: please stop saying “AKA” ! Just kidding! ( sort of). Keep up the good work.
*Sand bags, tree trunks, pieces of armor from other tanks, now concrete ... US used all they could find to increase the medium armor of the Sherman. Well done NS! 👍👍👏👏*
Its so awesome. At first you see the three shades used and think that it would look way too light. Then you see the finished paintjob and it’s spot on! I would probably never try using these light variants but you made me convince to just give it a try. Thanx for another great vid!
@@dotdashdotdash and no. They didn't wait. It wasn't their war, just like WW1. I guess to you the USSR waited too? Considering Germany invaded the USSR 6 months before the U.S. entered the war. And profiteering? OF COURSE!! The U.S. industrial might supplied all the allies with equipment. Not only that, but the ships that transported soldiers everywhere. Oh and between 1939 and 1941, U.S. mine sweepers and destroyers were already in action. But why get dragged into another European war? And I'll add this, not only did the U.S. supply everyone, but it fought on almost every continent, every ocean, strategically bombed not only European targets, but pacific targets and targets for the USSR because they didn't have a heavy bomber force. Add in this for those other myth believers, the USSR would not have gone anywhere without lend lease. Besides supplying aircraft and armor and munitions, the U.S. also supplied precious metals to make parts and grain and food. Why? Because the USSR couldn't feed not only their army but the civilian population too, same thing happened in the 80s during the cold war. And this...the U.S. had over 100 D-days. And when the war ended? The U.S. came up with the Marshall plan. Spending billions remaking Germany Japan and Europe. So slow it down on the myth bullshit. It doesn't work in the day and age.
Outstanding OD! I have been using your "reverse" technique for a good many years. I can't tell you the amount of grief I've put up with for doing it "backwards". Today, I somehow feel vindicated. WWII American OD is difficult to do, and get it right. I have failed at it numerous times. I had suspected that Tamiya had changed their OD formula, but; wasn't sure. To my eye, their Khaki now seems closer to the older OD they made. In any event, very interesting mixes. Anyone interested in a good formula really should bookmark this. Good show!
Just mix your own with black and yellow ochre like the real paint was, beats buying and sitting through a million different brands to find one worthwhile
The coolest thing in this video to me? The picture of the tank with the darkened star used for reference, is from my grandpa's unit, the 771st Tank Battalion. Love the channel keep up the awesome work!
What a "DRAB" video. 😄 Great job Martin, I just love the concrete armour you added to this model. I've never seen a Sherman with this applied. As an allied tanker in any type of armoured vehicle (especially Shermans) I'd have slathered concrete all over the place. KUTGW!
I like the way how you think about your work steps !!!! It looks like you are always open for new ways to paint a model. It is very interesting for me to think about new painting / weathering techniques. I guess we all paint too much like on a railroad track... and the models looks like the same always. Interesting to see how you start with the light tone of the olive drab. Nice video.... good sound..... !!! Like it... Greetings Carsten
That example you showed regarding the stars was painted black. The formula for OD was changed in 1942 after the US lost their source of linseed oil to the Japanese, and as a result it became a lot less dark. On top of that the only reason pre war olive drab looks as dark as it did is because during peacetime the vehicles were gloss varnished to keep the paint looking presentable for parade, which as we all know also darkens paint. After 1942ish it was relatively dark but nowhere near as much as you suggest
I love the unique details and solutions you employ throughout your videos. I enjoy building a kit with unique touches, and seeing you make your own additions from scratch is really satisfying.
I have a challenge..... Make a model using *ONLY* brush... *NO Airbrush :)* I made a diorama for a college project quite recently and ur tutorials and stuff helped a lot.... I don't have an airbrush so I did the best I could, using my Tamyia paints and I am very happy how it turned out. Thanks a lot, mate :) Hello from NZ :D
I'm using Vallejo veitnam olive drab set on mine, it's more original to the olive drab we all know and love, that colour you mixed there looks like the German interior colour for tanks
Congratulations Uncle on your recent 100K subscriptions! I'm sure this is just the beginning, with greater things to come for you. I think it would be fun to see you try some soft-skin projects along with your armor. One of the German halftracks, or a Raupenschlepper Ost, for example? Maybe a knocked-out tank, or for a diorama, something as seen in Normandy where an entire vehicle column was destroyed by airpower? Anyway, the main reason I come here is for the entertainment value, not just the modeling education. I always leave more relaxed and smiling after viewing your Friday content. Thanks for doing what you do so well!
It's actually cool to see the star OD than Black I love that detail! Just because it's a Blank and white photo don't mean it's black like you see way to much off! They were a darker shade OD according to the research I'm doing for each model now rather than know noth about it and just fire in like I used to do as a teenager with the cars! Now older it's definitely a different hobby when your in the Armor community! The kits are just amazing compared to old revell n stuff lol
Sometimes its a bit hard to follow so I´d like to know if you let each layer of anything always fully dry or is it situational? maybe in future videos you could edit that kinda info somewhere in the corner of the video? I think that might be pretty helpful. But I´m impressed about your work there and just by watching your videos you constantly give me more inspiration about trying out various colouring and techniques on my models and dioramas. Keep up the good work ^^ awesome how much I already learned from you and will learn *thumbs up*
Excellent work, very thorough explanation of your technique (not a big fan of the OD, though - too light). Anxious to see how further weathering goes 👍
I think that damage to the concrete would take out big chunks of this and cause cracks and therefore would be repaired in the field but I think it would look cool
I got the AK Decay deposit set today and the engine and track wash set I'm away to build the Tasca m4a3 easy eight with ledgend productions resin stowage set and got a 3D printed stowage set from my hobby shop yesterday they look brilliant

@@NightShiftScaleModels I like every single piece of your work. As seem it is telling the story on the own. Still, all long detailed descriptions are like in a good book. You never have enough of it. Anyway, I will put my thoughts on a separate comment. Have you ever considered making *PT-91 "Twardy"*? Most of them are pretty much worn and torn since the extensive use of it. Such beaten T-91 could be an intriguing thing and maybe a bit of challenge since there are no PT-91 models (on the market), so the one needs to be custom made out of the T-72M1 model. Also, the *T-72M4CZ* is a deep modernization I like a lot. Maybe you would find any worn one as an inspiration for such a built? I consider both designs as a solid effort as very restricted by the tiny budgets they had. Thank you for your effort and awesome content.

when you say a more obscure tank, I really do hope you mean the StuG3 with the extra concrete added to it. The StuG series really doesnt get enough love from the tank communities ;-;
i bet he's doing a StuG IV
You should do a British 1/48 Sherman Firefly to go with it, it could come out with an interesting diorama. Also Greate vid! And you also went yourself a new subscriber!
I guess it will be stug iii tank destroyer for next model with concrete
MARTIN!!! Love it
