Using a black wash as a color coat is a very unique idea and the results speak for themselves. It is very effective and the model looks great! I will try this myself on my next U.S. tank. Thanks for sharing this, it is a big help.
I've been thinking, by replacing the base color with a sand brown and the black wash with a green wash, could this same technique be used to paint British desert camo (like the pattern seen in the Grant tutorial)?
Hi Pete great video as always, you said you used a spray primer , is this a Vallejo spray primer ? If so which one and where did you buy it from . Thanks in advance rob
This might be a very stupid question- but the local hobby shops dont offer most of the paints you have used, but local DIY shops offer enamels, lacquers and alkyd paints . I have found their alternative- think its possible to use the paints directly? 800ml for 3£ so its very cheap, yet it can be thinned extremely without losing colours(have tried a paint that was very very old-11 yrs old which was exactly like the brand new acrylics but dries extremely slow) P.S guess ill try it, ordering PsC kits and a Warlord house, water-based enamels will be the washes.

Nice touch using the wash to outline the camo pattern. And saving time having to highlight! Any chance this could be done with a German camo pattern?
Good and easy tutorial, nice to see brush painting and no air brush. Thanks for sharing this video.
Another fine tutorial Pete. Thank you and keep up the good work!
Looks good- much better than I would have thought.

Grade A work, but I have one question, would watered down paint work the same way as the black wash to get the camo bits or would it not work? Thanks

Where do you get all the paints pack or buy individual paints that you need??
Damn, I didnt even know this was a mini game...
