I was a master model builder by the time I hit my late teens, I had entered a millennium falcon that I had finally was able to get a hold of, Big is AMT who did the kids back in the day got hit so hard they ran out of them, I weathered that thing to perfection I remember the reactions to people at it first saw it compared to others that it done theirs, I just got a lot of thumbs up for it, but that was a long time ago but I just remember the peace and tranquility of model building in my childhood… Great job
I also had that kit. I weathered mine with just powdered pastel chalks. It REALLY made a difference in the look of the kit. As my modeling talents got better, I moved on to other kits but, I would've really liked to go back and do a Millennium Falcon all over again with the better techniques I learned. You're right, those were the days.
@@djwak59 I used to love kit bashing...
Yeah I'm fourteen right now I am building in the tamiya m41 walker bulldog

"But that was a long time ago"... "in a galaxy far, far away." Sorry, I couldnt resist.
Great video, I see the markings for the tank are 2A 67th, that was my grandfather’s regiment in WW2! Thanks!
I wanted to say thank you for posting this video. I am an experienced miniature painter that just got into the world of scale models. The new products (enamels, thinners and such) were a bit intimidating at first, but this video gave me the confidence to try some weathering techniques on my TIE fighter and it looks great! Thanks for the tips.
I remember making models as a kid, but not to these standards. We never had the internet back then, nor large clubs, or anything like that. These series that you do are awakening the passion again and I may go buy one of you beginner recommedations I was watching earlier today. I have an airbrush I bought for my woodturned bowls which will come handy for this too. I think this may just be a good way to weather out these hard frosts we're having. I can still turn in my shed but it's minus 3 centigrade inside the shed. Time to get an indoor pursuit I think.
I get the 'sprues' in the name, but I see no beers being consumed. What is with that @sprewsnbrews ? P.S. new sub.
This is a good lesson to know. I'm going to try this on my next armour kit.
Helpful vid on weathering. Good work. On your vid editing, it's clear to see as you transition from segment to segment, but it works! Actually, yours are much easier to follow, without excess footage - yet enough to make the learning points, Much better for ease of listening/watching.
Thank you for the feedback! I appreciate it!
great tutorial Hank! This will really help out a lot of modelers!
Thanks man - I really appreciate it!
Great modelling tutorial Hank. Keep Calm and Scale Model On!
Yessir! Thanks 🍻
I appreciate the tutorial…it always comes down to the details!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed!
Such a gorgeous Pershing model!
Thank you!
Thanks for another great tutorial mate!
Love your work Hank
Thank you very much - I appreciate your support! 🍻
Great video thanks for making it.
Perfect timing! I am just about to start my first ever weathering attempt tonight!
Perfect! Hope it's helpful! 😁
Thank you for your videos. I just discovered your channel and out of all I follow, your videos are the most relatable and easy to follow and understand. Thank you.
That's so great to hear! Thank you very much - glad to hear it's been helpful 👍
Thanks man. Im a beginner and just bought this tank. Awesome vid.
That's great! Enjoy & Happy Building! 👍
Thank you!
Outstanding work Hank! Thank you so much for sharing your techniques. Kudos to you.
Thanks for watching! 👍
Do You have a video how You make the stuff aboard the thank? the supply ,tents,etc?
OUTSTANDING. Simple....easy to understand and I dont have to buy 12 items from some obscure company in Serbia (I have done this ;). Looking forward to the filter tutorial and any tips on canopies creating smoke behind an aircrafit engine. I need to graduate to aircraft but they seem more challenging.
I have wanted to add weathering to the project in doing but hadn't a clue how to do it or to use the washes so it was going to be a pss until this video.
You've made it seem so easy that even knowing nothing about shading and lighting, I should have enough about me to be able to add some "basic" weathering.
Another unrelated headache in having is knowing the order to prime, paint and attach the props and wheels or which glue to attach them with if I do end up sorting them before attaching to the painted body work.
great tutorial !
Thank you! 👍
Just started watch your videos great info
Thank you very much!
Thanks for posting these videos. Very helpful!
Do you have any tips for those of us that are new to airbrushing? I have gone through a couple of airbrushes recently. They always seem to get clogged no matter how much I clean them... Should I switch from acrylic paint to enamel?
Cool tips!
Thank you!!
Eine wunderschöne Stielgranate im Hintergrund 👍
Danke! Ich habe ein Video darüber, wenn Sie es sehen möchten 👍
THE TECHNIQUE HE USED IS EXCELLENT. I USE THE SAME TECHNIQUES!
Thanks 👍
I really miss miniature models for movies like the semi truck that slid sideways in T2 or the steam locomotive from the end of Back to the Future 3 that went off a cliff. I really think of those as artwork especially compared to CGI cartoons.
Great work Hank. your a very good instructor. Clear and easy to follow! Just wondering if you could do something on weathering or comparing techniques on Zimmerit coating.
Thank you very much - I really appreciate it! And I'd love to do a Zimmerit tutorial... next time I've got some German armor on deck, I'll film one up 👍
Hey Mr Sprues. So I am just about to build this kit and did you texture yours, the turret,glacis plate etc? If so did you do a video on it? I have subscribed and love your work
I use Vape wire, same effect, but one thing I have learned is to always remember that the antenna is there when looking closely at the model. One false move, and you have a piece of sharp wire embedded in your face,
I have Tamiya panel accent black. That stuff works really well on model cars and was wondering if it would do the same as your washes do? They do come in different colors also.
When I was a kid, I don’t think any of my models made it past the BB gun and fire cracker stage! So, at this point in my life, it’s kind of cool to actually take them a little further for a change!
This is the exact thing I have been looking for...been building for 40 years and I remain...well...terrible :P. But never say never...thanks!
Stick with it!! I'm glad to hear this was helpful - happy building 👍
You are a library of great info. Please do or stop instructing. I like the potato masher. 👍
Thanks very much!!
I am going to build my first armor vehicle for a beginner what do you recommend thanks
If the model was painted with enamel paints such as Testors, is the clear varnish still needed?
I have a 1:75 Sherman tank already built in metal by corgi , still need gloss ?
Curious, I am building up and detailing a 1:18 Vietnam era PBR patrol boat. How would you weather it? It did not rust as it is fiberglass. It would not get grime as it would have washed off in the rain. I suppose paint would have rubbed off and battle damage would show white. Maybe the paint is streaked where dirt or rain, or brown river water would run off. Maybe mud around where people walk. Potential chipping in the armor plates and turret. This one has me puzzled. Sun baked faded paint with streaks maybe.
I'm brand new to scale modeling. Is it correct that once the model if fully painted. I do a gloss clear coat. Use an enamel wash on acrylic base, then afterwards to a final flat clear coat finish?
Do you just do wash for your models bc it looks great and all but it doesn’t look like it is getting weathered
I am a huge fan of yours and your work. You have encouraged me to get back into modeling, something that I tried and failed at when I was a kid but thanks to your videos I am encouraged and willing to try and make mistakes....much to the chagrin of my wife. I was wondering if you knew of a great kit that featured an up-armored Hummvee with a 240B machine gun? I have looked everywhere and can't find a decent model. That was the vehicle I drove in Iraq and would love to make it. Appreciate all your videos and all the helpful hints and such you have given along the way. Any plans to try your hand at plastic 1/32 scale toy soldiers?
Ah I'm so glad to hear! Thank you very much for your support. I haven't done up a Humvee myself yet, but I believe Academy has a good one in 1/35 scale. It might have the M2 up top though, not sure... and no plans on 1/32 scale yet, but maybe someday!
Is there is a specific brand of Matt varnish you use?
Dear Hank: I know this question is a few months late but I just got into scale modeling during a surgical convalescence. Hadn’t built a model since 1980. Now I’m 56 and a WW2 buff. I’ve got a bunch of German armor from various sources. My question is: I’ve got a new Dragon 1/35 Jagdpanther smart kit for the so called “late production “ variant. I’m leaning toward priming the whole thing on the sprues with a mud red color primer. Or, there’s the black primer to cast shadows when applying base coat Dunkelgelb. Any advice you can give me? This kit was mui expensive and I figured everything should get primed. I plan to use weathering, chipping and wash. I’m also likely going to apply Zimmerit. I did my research on what patterns were used on what tanks etc.. What do you think of this plan? Or the order of things? Might put the Zimmerit on before priming. Not sure. Help please. New Subscriber Dan. Nice channel and work!
If I don't apply paint can I just not apply varnish and will the plastic colour survive
What about revell weathering kits, ones that come in dust form
I haven't tried them out, personally!
Also is that the tamiya M26 kit?
Can you do one on decals
Have you done a video on 'tooth', sir? As a former modeler, I understand what it is, but it's hard to describe in words.
1:09 What is your ratio of thinner to varnish?
If you use an acrylic wash, do you need to spray the gloss varnish?
Always a good idea, yes!
What is the difference between using Tamiya Enamel thinner (X-20) and Migs?
There effectively shouldn't be any difference! Just different brands - I stick with the AMMO product just because I'm familiar with it 👍
Is there any modeling varnish thats any cheaper? Not willing to pay 40$
Do you have to use acrylic varnishes? Or will a laquer like Testors glosscote and dullcote work?
I don't personally use a lot of laquers, but you should be fine as long as your weathering carrier isn't the same as your paint carrier (for example, acrylic thinners will eat acrylic varnishes, whereas enamel thinners won't eat acrylic varnishes). Hope that helps!
@@SpruesNBrews I think I got it. As of now I use the aforementioned sprays, I have Tamiya panel liner and Vallejo model wash. I'll do a few tests on pieces from my graveyard to be certain though. As always, thanks! This is why your channel is my go-to source.
Do you practice airbrush colour modulation? If so would you make a video?
I'd love to - stay tuned!
@@SpruesNBrews Cool. Honestly I love this hobby but I am close to packing it in. Everything just seems so complicated and I don't seem to do anything right. I love your videos because you explain things well but also leave your ego at the door. And your stuff is good. Thank you 😊
Unless you got sponsored by MIG, there's no reason to recommend enamel washes instead of Oil which is MUCH easier to work with
good stuff as always. be honest... how often do you put those helmets on when you're building? lol
Too much 😅
Can you do a video on damage like rounds bouncing
Oh good idea - thanks!
Naic👍
Thank you!!
Hi all you beautiful modelers. I'm trying to locate, or build, a model of the Austin class LPD USS Trenton-14. Pretty near zero success to-date. I did find a guy who printed me a two inch model out of poly resin but I would like to go bigger. Models out there are of the newer San Antonio class. The Trenton was a dinosaur. All suggestions welcome and will be appreciated. Happy New Year. Peace.
As super great as Tamiya products are, I wish they would branch out and produce a nice lager. I mean it could double as a paint thinner since Tamiya paint is alcohol based right ? A win win for we modelers ! 😆👍
Ha! Wouldn't that be something! 😅🍻
Its better to use matt or satin varnish instead of gloss
Gloss works best for me, but satin is alright, too!
The tank texture is very heavy. It needs sanding off.
Tried to use those Ammo products for weathering, but I totally messed up the paint on my M4A1...
I thought I was really going to get back to it, but I give up, I hang up the brushes: I'm too old for this b******t. :(
Oh no! I'm sorry to hear that... but don't give up! Mistakes happen - and now you know where to do something differently next time! Keep on building 👍
Just a comment
for the algorithm
Thank you!
Don’t buy from their store, ordered an item easy eight tank model. Never received and they blame me will have to report to the BBB AND THEIR STATES ATTORNEY GENERAL. I can’t find the order number so they blame me. They are not helpful. I guess they need the $30.00 they stole
Don't buy from whose store?
How did you pay? PayPal will cover it.
@@jeffreyb8770 no longer interested, I’ll survive not enough money to worry about it and for that money I got a good education on whom you are
