  • My friends, a huge model such as this Karl Mortar might seem daunting to paint. Not gonna lie, it takes a while to get it all airbrushed! But the complex shapes, large surfaces, and tons of details make it a post-shading playground! I also wanted to take a different approach to the traditional German Panzer Grey, so let's see how it turned out!

    you should put the mortar at one end of your display shelf and a massive crater diorama at the other end for more storytelling!

    You are honestly the only channel that I can't wait for the next episode. Amazing work. Great voice over.

    If you do a diorama for the Karl will you also build the accompanying Panzer 4 that each was paired with? as each Karl would need a modified panzer 4 to keep them fully stocked on ammunition and it would be an interesting historic detail that would make the model more interesting

    • @NightShiftScaleModels
      @NightShiftScaleModels  ปีที่แล้ว +24

      True, but the Schlepper was supposed to drive away when the mortar was firing. That should give me a good enough excuse to just make a small scenic base around it :D

    • @Evaunit98
      @Evaunit98 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@NightShiftScaleModels i was unaware they drove away but that may explain the absence of them from photos of the Karl!s firing

    Dear Martin, the paintjob on the entire model was so acurate and in scale that the „sloppy camo job“ was even more reliable. No one ever would have doubt that this wasn’t the intention. Amazing job! Im glad you had even fun doing it.

  • @bradleycooper4599
    @bradleycooper4599 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    Scratch building the shell loading crane, that was on a panzer 4 chassis, to go with this would be awesome in a diorama. EDIT: Never mind Trumpeter already has a Fahrgestell munitionsshlepper to go with this kit.

    Hey mate! Great video and you are a massive inspiration to me! I have now finished my first kit, a Tamiya 1/35th T62, and am now working on my second kit! Thanks for all the tips over time. I have come here from 1/32nd diecast farm models (profile picture). Thanks for everything mon-friend 😆

    I always prime my models with spray cans, i enjoy brush painting so it's better for me. Incase anyone was wondering, my recommendation is tamiya model primer, it's expensive and comes in a small spray can, but levels well and dries near-instantly.

    I have watched a ton of model building videos in the last few years since I started back doing kits and today was the first I have heard of putting gloss into the paint mix to keep later gloss varnishes from turning the color darker. Thanks so much for that.

    Remember the guys in the field who were painting this were at the the bottom of the rank. So, they just like today's military were told to paint it and they did what they thought they wanted. I see this all the time when restoring military vehicles- reflective surfaces painted over, glass over spray, wheels and tires imperfectly painted etc.

    • @Panzermeister36
      @Panzermeister36 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The Tropentarn colours are very interesting in their use in Russia. By 1942, vehicles in full factory-applied tropical camouflage were being deployed to the northern Russian sector...in the winter! Desert camouflage in the snow. Well, at this point it was deemed that Russia was a tropical region and these camouflages weren't actually "desert" anymore.
      Basically, it's always very cool to see the funky results of the Tropentarn colours used in Russia :)
