- My friends, in the last part of The Quackening we'll take a look at mud effects and track weathering on this French duck tank. We'll combine acrylic mud paste with enamel effects for a layered result that's finally gonna be visible as the Somua's lower hull is rather exposed.

Technique id like to share: if you take that premixed tamiya panel liner and apply it over acrylic mud after it dries, you can make selections of mud that look wetter than others.
Ah neat, will have to try that. 🤔 Thanks for the idea!
I think it would also work with a regular enamel wash or diluted oil paint :) Tried it a few times in the past.
The pet-duck is back!
Hey Nightshift! After watching you for months now I was finally willing to go and get my first armour model :D So now I've built an ISU-122 from Zvezda, but not without it's mistakes, but I think that comes with the territory of first models. I haven't painted it yet as I don't actually own any paints rn, so I'm waiting for them to come in, but I plan on doing a simple winter camo if I can! I got to say though, I really enjoyed the process of making it, despite my failings in cleaning off seem lines and what not. In any case you're a real inspiration and joy to watch!
How was the build? Was it tough, I have built a Zvezda model before, the Tiger 1 early version, and It was quite a nice build, although my kit also did have some goofs.
@@bruhbird4501 I thought it was pretty enjoyable! There were a few hiccups along the way, but those were namely skill issues. The only issue I had was one of two steps missing from the instructions. But they were easily rectified by just looking at the left over parts and reference photos. But over all yea, it was really enjoyable and easy going! I was recommended the company by a friend big into modelling and he said that Zvezda were generally pretty beginner friendly and I think it's true for the ISU-122.
Tamiya kits are pretty okay as well if you are a beginner.
@@loritorringa8454 so far my favourite kits to build are Tamiya ones, they are just easy to build, don’t require much tweaking and look realistic.
That's awesome! If I may add up to the ongoing discussion, a winter camouflage might be actually rather difficult if it's your first model. A green vehicle with white invasion stripes from Berlin might be just as visually appealing, but a bit easier to pull off properly. But hey, do your own thing and have lots of fun while you're at it! :)
I hope you continue to feel well, I can’t wait to see this diorama! The duck is doing it’s best, it didn’t realize this wasn’t a costume party!
Thanks, I'm working on the diorama right now and I think it's gonna be pretty intense!
@@NightShiftScaleModels Very cool! I’m excited to see the figures as well! As we have seen with the duck, these early war topics are certainly unique.
Thank you for posting the Duckie video and keep healing like a champion
Really Nice! Missing your 1/72 kits. Congratulations!!!
Beautiful work as always!!! 👍👍👍
i personally love the way the somua looks, cant wait for the diorama. great job
Watching Uncle Night Shift on the Night Shift is best
Good job. I didn't think you could save this model but you did. Well done.
could you try an ultra low budget challenge - say, buy a kit, detail it weather it and build a diorama for it but for under £50?
Cheaper than 50! More like 29.99! 😄
When I was a kid I made an ultra budget diorama. Tamiya KV-1, a couple of prefabricated railroad trees, a flower pot and earth from my garden. Boom, diorama under 20 bucks!
@@NightShiftScaleModels have you tried making a firebase diorama? Let's say Vietnam era
Sometimes you don't buy figures or models because you like them but you think that it will be something throwaway you can try out a new technique on or go wild on the paint schemes. When all is done you've grown to like them anyway. This tank is a perfect example.
Long have i awaited The Quackening!!!!
Interesting see the same girder and sprocket plate the Schneider tank had. SOMUA strikes again.
ALL HAIL THE QUACKENING, DIRTY THE DUCK! great vid as always :)
I actually really love these wacky French tanks. They are horrible and silly, yet bafflingly amazing. 😅
First like the video then watching what you bring us this week………always very interesting to watch,.
Epicly done night shift! Notifications team 2, come in and send your transmissions! As usual, great work!
Lovely series and a great result, many thanks.
just simply Beautiful I enjoy your videos I learn a lot thank you very much
i still think it would be fun to watch someone use everything they hate in the hobby
like
crappy kit
cheap paints and stuff
the try not to rage quit challenge 😁
anyway...
looking forward to the next video.
take it easy!
Awesome idea, especially with Uncle night shift and his chill behaviour, it would be interesting to see what happens.
Great idea! So many possibilities!
Haha, life's too short to build crappy (Revell) kits :D
Yeah i would love to see that. It would be entertaining 😂
@@NightShiftScaleModels Making a decent model by converting those Timmee Toy Tanks...
... Got to be easier than building a Revell kit?
It’s lovely i really like the rain marks!!! And when you add the dark layer is so good!!
Thank you , Uncle Martin .
If you want to display tracks laying out in the open, I'd recommend a small diorama of a crew changing/repairing the tracks.
How about a factory diorama with several sets of track stored in the background? :D
Laser Creations did an awesome Tiger I diorama of a tank crew repairing the track on their tank with one of the guys taking a picture of the scene. Then, when you turn the diorama around, you see the same tank in a museum with the picture hanging on the wall and the guy is now old and looking at it with his wife.
Awesome work as always! The pet duck is back!
interesting way you applied those muddy effects
Another excellent job. Well done sir.
Good to see that the pg-7 will get a crew and diorama
Very nice work as always, Martin! I'm glad you're making a steady recovery.
Noice that really made the duck look better lol!
MARTIN!!!! Dude - what a gnarly, beautiful beast!
Amazing work. Love it
As always Great job!!!!
Awesome work as always sir! Your eye for detail never ceases to amaze me!
It's cute. Looks good.
UNcle - I really dig how that came out! Its an interesting subject, and the camo is very, very cool! Hope you are mending well!
You have done a helluva job on that i gotta get one of those myself,
Again, great video. Excellent details and enjoyable commentary!👍🏼
looks so good
Awesome!!!!
I need to add one to my own collection.
dude who would dislike your videos?!
Man, I love this. Keep it up.
Very beautiful, as always. Thanks for the inspiration and tips :)
Wow, the podcast was great btw
Nice job. I just bought some AMMO/Mig Turned Dirt, Moist Ground, and Thick Soil. Nice to see you use similar. That lead you have can be put in a holder. I gave a Kaweco and an E+M. Both are 5.6mm. I use extremely soft lead. 4B, I think. The thing is, they keep the lead off my hands and keeps the really soft ones from breaking. You can use different hardness in different lead holders. Since they are friction fit, you can just release the friction and push the lead back up inside. Ready for the next time.
I love these kinda tanks
looks really nice 👍
" At last.... .Schinck......The Quackening',. Uncle Kurgan.
Amazing!
The Somua looks great Uncle! I was a bit unsure if I liked the camo at first, but now it is weathered with your usual skill and eye for detail, I really like the finished model.
Looking forward to seeing it in a diorama.
Cheers from Australia!
Mud.... sticking to everything it touches.... who knew!
The uncle is back 😁👌
Definitely an episode I will be returning to for the weathering and track effects... Another grrrr-eat model in the end.
Like you, I keep buying the otherwise unobtainable... I only wanted a couple of intended builds and now have an ever increasing stash! 🤔
Good job.thx.👍
Seriously, how can you not like the Somua? They have some of the most interesting camouflages of the whole WWII, it never gets boring.
The tank looks very interesting, but as a weathering subject it was... weird :) But I'm glad to have it in my collection!
Is amazing how your talent turn this wierd tank look in a realistic good looking masterpiece! U r a huge inspiration my friend see u on Patreon :)
I'm a fan of Vallejo acrylic "pumice", different kinds. Been using them for years.
I personally like the oddball kits and paintjobs you do. I don't build armor models but I now really want to do one when time permits and I for sure will use your techniques. keep up the awesome content!
Awesome, greetings from Spain
Track processing looks great, ;) Looks perfect, as whole tank. All the best for You! ;)
Looks amazing dude. How your leg healing bud. Just to add. Yourself and Mr Rinaldi have brought my modelling to a waybetter standard than I ever thought possible. So thank you both for sharing your technics and expertise. 👍
I like this tank a lot. Long, narrow but THICC! With no firepower whatsoever 😆
Loving the work uncle. Would love to see an over the top mud jobby soon
This one was rather subtle so I'm also in a mood for another mud bath :D
hallo Night Shift. well recovered yet, hope you'll be able to get one you're bike soon.
Hi from Russia)
Would love the diorama to have some water in it - I'm a sucker for resin ;)
Hello Uncle NightShift! I'd love to see a late model Jagdpanther for a future build.
Cool video
Can you build an "Tank Biathlon" tank someday. Something fancy like an T80 with red or blue camoflage :D.
What about BMP-2 or something like a T-64 that would be a good idea
Sitting around with a broken leg sounds like perfect time to build giant Soviet SPG..... :)
Let me tell you, I love this tank and how the little duckling turned out! :) Maybe the diorama could have a baguette shop! XD
The Quackening xD, I think that made my day. Btw, i use the Black track pro (2.0), too. Mine contains HF (Hydrofluoric acid), in small amounts, though it can cause a LOT of damage. Feel free to google the harms if you are not afraid of bones turning into toothpaste (Calcium fluoride) or death from higher concentrations. So PLEASE! next time wear special acid proof gloves or at least gloves on both hands. I know that acid very well from my microtechnology job and want to watch your videos for a long time, uncle. So, with this said, until next week or in a comment at patreon. I like where the dio is going so far ;). See ya
High points for using the word "homogeneous" correctly.
Gotta tell you Uncle, as "ugly" as that tank is, I really appreciate the oddball armor getting some love. It is an interesting subject with those extra panels covering the suspension, like a free extra canvas to practice near ground level weathering that will actually be visible when the model is completed.
On another note, have you heard about Das Werk's upcoming Srurmgeschutz in 1/16?
That's right, one-sixteenth scale. Delivery date so far is December, pre-order price 100 Euros (100 USD in the US). It even has a partial interior, metal barrel and some photoetch.
I am not affiliated, I just saw Andy's Hobby HQ video about it and I'm pretty excited because I may finally be able to build an armor model with my "old guy" failing eyesight. ;>)
Hey this a nice modell unique
Awesome! I was hoping to see you trash the decals on the turret a bit, especially the pristine red/white diamond - but dang, a great result. I really like the awkward, offbeat armor kits, this one definitely qualifies 👌
Please could you make a Saladin armoires car in the future? I would love to see a Saladin made by you. That car holds childhood memories and sentimental value.
I love your Chanel my friend
Nice
I'd like to see uncle Night Shift create a modern tank in good condition. He seems to use weathering a lot for contrast etc. so I think it would be interesting to see what techniques he uses to create realism without heavy weathering effects.
Great work as always 👌 those Wilder products seem to be not available anymore. You have any alternatives, especially for the aqua line reactivatable stuff? Thanks.
i like your videos
It needs a lemonade stand on the diorama
Pretty cool tank, more cute than ugly imo.
My kids still think they have a uncle nightshift
I was unsure about the paintwork, but seeing it toned down due to weathering really made it look good. Still a weird camouflage, but suits a weird looking tank:)
We all make weird choices, I still wonder why I bought the Waffentrager E-100 from Modelcollect. At the same time though you can't pass on the opportunity to acquire the forbidden love child of an E-100 and a PAK-44.
Hey ! As french guy I'm like, used to the shape of Somua and older French tanks. I dont really get the jokes ^^ I mean, some Russian early WW2 are in this same kind of shapes. I'm very Exited about your incoming diorama. The 1940 fights are very... instructives. If you like to know more of it you can read "The strange defeat" ( also known as "Testament" ) from the historian and then french resistant "Marc Block".
quack quack!
It's disgusting! I love it!
I always loved these french tanks, just because they look so weird XD Thank you for (re-) building this one. Why not building an additional Char B1 bis...? ;)
New Tamiya 1:35 kit annunced. Me: I need it o_O
I live for friday's
hi, i never saw here chieftain for example, do you think you will appear someday? thanks!
I really like your weathering procedure. Can you recommend a model shop in Europe where to get the „wilder textured earth“ which you use in your other videos? Where did you get yours. I couldn’t find it anywhere. Ak mud is a little too thick for my preference and not so easy to work with.
I cant help but binge watch your videos, one question are those tracks on the right way around?
Hi Martin, if I subscribe to your Patreon, which plan do I have to choose if I want to read the tutorials you made for the models you built before TH-cam?
Let me know if you ever want to build a M113. I have a bunch of pictures of my track from Thunder Run in Iraq 2003. Its a Sapper vehicle so I hope you like stowage because it has a ton. lol
that would be pretty cool to see him do an m113.
@@novusordocitrorum772 Yes, I vote for M113. Let's make it happen. I'll supply you with all the reference you would like. lol I'll even sign something as the driver. D-22 D-10-E TF/1-64 3rd ID for life.
Thank you again for another great video . I have a suggestion for you if you haven't already tried it? Ive been building scale models for over 40 years and recently one of my nephews called me up and asked me if I could show him some techniques. When I asked him what type of model he was working on he told me it's not a model but a store bought transformer toy a re production of the Devastator transformer witch even when I first saw them released in the 80s always thought they looked to toy like . But being that he showed genuine interest I agreed to help him and to my surprise it turned out to be a fun project. I was just thinking that it might be a interesting project for uncle night shift to try ? My nephew has now branched out into customizating and painting all of his toys everything from his matchbox cars to his nerf guns . I turned him on to your channel and you helped another young kid unplug himself from video games and start using his mind lol. Thanks again brother keep it up .
Martin ....Das Werk is coming up with a new tool 1/16 STUG III....can you please do a video build?
