- Are you looking for tips on how to paint 1/2400 ships? How about ideas for basing your miniature ships to make water and wave effects? We're excited to welcome Mark Fastoso back to the channel to learn how he painted his Panzerschiffe models for his "Sink the Bismarck" game.
And if you haven't seen that game quite yet, be sure to check it out next: • The Battle of the Denm...
Don't forget--Mark is giving away the Bismarck he painted in this tutorial for free! Details at the end of the video on how to add this ship to your collection....
Here at Little Wars TV we love showcasing the great work other historical wargaming clubs are doing. If you want to see more from Mark's Game Room in the future, just us know in the comments below! - เกม
I bought a black powder rule book, one regiment of french, and one regiment of British. So I'ma paint them today
The Bob Ross of the Bismarck.
One of my heroes!
I kept waiting for him to advise us to use two thin coats.
Loving Panzerschiffe miniatures! Introduced to them in the mid '80's and been a "love" story ever since.
one little pointer is that the Bismarck still had one of her flags painted. You can see it on the bottom from the underwater footage. I think your idea that they covered them for the battle with canvas seems correct.
They probably planned to remove the canvas again after heading back, nearing home port, so the Luftwaffe would recognize them.
Thanks! I've been looking at running the Battle of the Java Sea and this is some brilliant inspiration.
A great technique for cheap, easy ocean texture on bases!
I will be running the Battle of the Java Sea at Historicon in November using Fire at Sea!
Thank you for the magazine lead and your give away program. Due enjoy your videos.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Great tutorial. Especially the waves.
Thanks for the video. I already have a lot of 1:2400 ships, mainly GHQ, but this video has given me some ideas on how to improve their look.
Awesome video, Mark.
Awesome video, thanks for all the cool advice.
Super tutorial! 👍
Very awesome !
Really good video and some excellent tips
Excellent video Mark! See you at Historicon!
Great video! And a great intro from Charlie!!
Very nicely done. Awedome
just purchased the four ships from Panzerschiffe today, I am going to use the battle of Denmark Straights to introduce table gaming to my son.
But you didn't say "two thin coats!" 🤣
Mark just wanted to say very nice tutorial, you got a great effect using an easy techniques and inexpensive materials and models. Feels like something I could do myself which is inspiring. I plan on getting the WW1 version of GQ and start naval gaming.
Enjoyed your demonstration and have watched it twice. Couple of questions though as I launch my own miniatures fleet......when you printed out your label for the base did you use simple printer paper or something more robust? And secondly, when applying the label did you apply clear coat to seal it in?
First rate paint job
I think they definitely covered the swastikas with canvas, as they are clearly visible on the wreck's bow :)
Great stuff Mark! Are these the same models you used during Cyber Wars for Death Ride of the Scharnhorst?
They are the same models!
I'm a bit confused bout the scale of the models. The ship fits on the base done with 3 DBx bases 4x3. It makes the whole base length 9cm. The Bismark length was 251 meters. Which will be 10.4cm in 1/2400. The model length in the video is about 8cm.
Can u make a pdf of al the ship labels?
Broadsides: Empires of Steel is a great option for WW1….
I like Grand Fleets 3rd ed.
@@orbitalair2103 I have Grand Fleets First addition which I would play…
I like your channel but I can’t help but think you put out more consistent battle reports in the past.
Has something changed?
Perhaps I stumbled into the he channel when your library was full, and then enjoyed the backlog
All in all, more games please and less painting/DIY videos
You are partly right, Lewis. We used to cram all of our content into a 7-8 month window, often posting twice a week. And then the channel would go dark for 4+ months. After two years we decided this was not to our advantage and have since switched to posting consistent content year-round. So the volume of content and games we play is actually HIGHER than it was before, but it's spread out over the entire year without interruption.
@@LittleWarsTV from. What I gather from other TH-camrs, the season format is not treated well my the algorithm gods.
@@LittleWarsTV gooootcha. Makes sense. Thanks for explaining
Its important to remind people that others don't find their kid as cute as they do. Maybe less of the 5 year old and more of the 50 year old please?
The point of this channel is to encourage children into wargaming
Most here in the comments as far as i have seen are ok with kids, many including little wars tv and others want children to enter miniature wargaming, so thats why kids
@@ritaDas-xl4kz I'm okay with kids too. Not sure why people are reading my comment as anti-kid.
Really I was just pointing out there was /too much/ kid in the video.
@@tr9809 it’s sure has hell has I’m 11 and Im subbed and a patron
