Nice tutorial. Great videos thanks. Also the phrase “keep building models, do not collect them” is the best phrase in the plastic model hobby environment, great job.
I just noticed that this month I'm 2 years subbed to some bohemian dude making plastic models dirty! 👍
To the next 2 years friendo!
Same here, time flies!
ahh friday is beter when i hear meh friends
MAH-FRENS!!!!!! That just never gets old.
Hope you are still healing well.
😂👍
Wow youre becoming better and better, that puppy looks adorable.
Me: 40 yrs of figure painting to get to my skill level.
Nightshift: ~one year
Both: painting is fun
That's one way to look at it, but you have to account for his several years of painting in general too. Experience in the general field still counts towards sub-categories.
@@somethingorother319 Well of course but he is a very talented artist far in excess of my own skills 😁 All admiration from me.
He is lying that for two years he has only been painting figures. This is a PR move. But it works beautifully, there's nothing to say. I adopted some of the tricks for myself.
OMG, as a dog lover, I’ve got to get that soldier/puppy! 😍
I absolutely love that in addition to watching cool video i get to have almost minute of puppy in the background of puppy being painted
I like your result. There are some that say a very dark grey is actually a correct representation of black in 1/35 scale due to the scale effect. I have tried that and never was happy with the result, either. I have found that adding some type of blue to the color works for my eye. Saving black for darkest of the recesses. Two useful colors for hair in the Tamiya range are clear blue and smoke (clear black). These two thinned down to a filter consistency work for black hair. A mix of clear blue, clear yellow, and clear red work for brown hair. Since they are clear, your previous shading can still be seen. The smoke can also be used for shadows in a black uniform. Lately though, I have been using oils a whole lot more than I used to. I've been leaning that way more and more.
Otherwise nice but they look like gollum with that yellowish skin tone
There is no such thing as scale effect in regards to color.
Thank you , Uncle Martin .
"And its easier for the avarage Joe. I know it because im one of them."
"And that was a f*ckin lie."
Amazing and inspiring work. I will use them at my next project.
Thank you so much
awww little pupper, very cute!!
Not usually this early to one of your vids Uncle. My excitement for the final product and diorama is unmatched right now!
Others have already asked, but I will do so again: who manufactures these figures? I don't recognise them.
Fab video, as always! Thanks :)
Круто! Очень круто! Посмотрев твои видео новичкам не нужно покупать какие-то журналы и пособия. Ты очень понятно показываешь.
Так держать!
Martin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As usual... Incredible.
Dublin says a big Hello! Absolutely Brilliant!
I've watched heaps of figure painting tutorials AND I still learned heaps from this one! I think you already have hit on a unique style. They look brilliant.
From the all the videos, I think these figures were one of your best ones. Small details.
Oils and enamels are becoming a lot more common in miniature figure painting. I use them quite often. It’s cool to see how a scale modeler approaches figure painting. Great video, as always!!
If you’re interested; in the games industry we call those red skin tones in the face ‘sub-surface scattering’ or SSS for short.
You finally primed Flesh with white! I'm so Proud!
It never ceases to amaze how talented dudes are in stuff you never even considered.
You have done an amazing work, Martin, and that puppy sure looks adorable :D
The only thing I would say is : the skin tones are a bit too… yellow-ish. If you compare it to your fingers when you were holding the figurines, you'll probably see that your fingers had a bit more pink to them. Right now, it feels like there's a layer of fine sand dust on their arms and faces, which doesn't fit with the cleaner clothes.
Otherwise, the shading is very well done and you've truly outdone yourself on those black pants, they look perfect!
Uncle Night Shift Baby!
Really well done and interesting approach, thank you for sharing this! Question / suggestion: 14:05, you can see the sitting figure with the hat casting a shadow on the tank from your studio light - to better "integrate" figures with the tank, wouldn't this be something you can address during the build of the diorama? Deciding on where the sun is, and adding shadows to bring everything together, tank, figures, diorama details.. Just an idea. Thanks again!
It could be a really interesting approach.
Puppy looks amazing
Ah yes.... Finding a dogo picture for "moral support". Cuteness in an armor painting video! Heartwarming, wholesome... And here I thought I've seen it all! Thanks for the good vibes! Zdravus!
Hi uncle! Wondering if you could make more Russian ww2 models, like a kv2 or bt7 or something. Love from the USA
Stunning work one of best painters around
Yeah! The panzer puppy is back!.
Very nice! This is Glenn Bartolotti from armor models by Glenn Bartolotti.
What to say... Friday fun again... 😀👌
These videos are incredible! Has anyone noticed when he says “my friends” at the beginning that he sounds just like Gary Oldman playing Bram Stokers Dracula? To me he’s a dead ringer for him. I love listening to him speak. Excellent teacher. I’d love to sit with him and watch and learn.
You singlehandedly destroyed my figure paintig universe - it took me years of mastering figure painting with oils and you revolutionized it in one year! Bravo! Kudos! Gonna have to try out your method, that's for sure - thanks!
Amazing as always
You keep saying "the figure painter method" but lemme tell you Uncle Nightshift, in twenty years of painting figures I've used it all... Acrylics, oils, enamels... You name it! Also doge is adorable 10/10
I always love watching your content man, keep it up!
Amazing work !!!
Excellent work on those figures again Martin! Who doesn't like a cute little puppy.👌
I love this new style! Great work man!
Fantastic work!
Outstanding job on the faces...😍😍
Finally I might be able to paint some figures. Thankfully my recent build an m60a1 with era painted in the summer merdc scheme is coming along nicely along with my Serbian m36 Jackson. Will you ever paint a us army tank in the merdc schemes.
Awesome job 👏
They look amazing, dude. You're smart for branching out on medium types. I'm almost entirely an acrylic painter (and almost solely for figures). But I wouldn't say your way is lazier at all. Work smarter, not harder.
Looks so good
Another GREAT vid!!!! 👍👍👍
Wow! Nice paintwork!
As always, outstading work Mr. Nightshift!!
Awww that puppy
beautifully done!
Beautiful work!!! :D
Fantastic love you work👍
Great figures and superb paint job
Awesome! Like the smooth transition and color modulation👍
Those figures turned out great. Love the puppy
Amazing work, as always :)
Those look awesome! The fur on the puppy definitely does look nice! Great job as always!
These are the best figures I’ve ever seen!
First, i am a figure painter that has been watching youre stuff for a few years now. So tip for applying bodyhair, use thin paint and make thin small lines in the same direction
I'm always something new from my visits to your channel. Such quality 👌
Its incredible how you keep getting better and better bro. Fantastic work
Bye far one of your best models yet dude keep it up!
Nice job ,very impressive.
Just in time to get an inspiration. Amazing work, those figures looks wonder :)
Always a pleasure to watch perfection. Thanks Uncle Night Shift.
You sir are a genius when it comes to painting!!
They look great, 10 out of 10.
Excellent job and thanks again for the tips. I've been a modeler for 51 yrs. Mainly armour now and did my first alpine figure recently. Can't wait to do another while using the techniques that you have shown. Thank you again!
THANKS, you always make my day
I’m definitely going to try this method
Absolut WOW! The figure painting looks fantastic and the details amazing. 🔎😍👌
The figure painting looks great.
mufriends! Love it. You are a true artist sir.
The fur texture on the puppy is incredible!
Inspiration for a 1/48 B-17 crash landing site diorama.. well done, man.
Babe get up, Night Shift posted
Love the dog
Awesome work, still inspiring me to paint, hope one day I can get half as good as you , keep up the Awesome work mate 👍💪💪
Great tutorial, thank you very much!
Hi Martin, the Jagdpanther looks great, I can't wait to see it on the base, the whole thing is visually very clear, you have a nice camo color, the contrasts do a great job here, just like the weathering. I especially like the mud that you placed very nicely on the model. Dry grass on flat surfaces is great, I also use it sometimes on my models. I like that you started adding some stowage to the models. This undoubtedly enriches the model and additionally attracts the attention of viewers. I remember your models from Moson, when you showed them in the old building, where I missed these little things, although they looked great anyway! ourite Especially my favourite M36 jackson with rubber side skirts! Old times!
I'm looking forward to see the next episode! cheers!
Fantastic. I congratulate myself to have suggest you to do figures! What improvements, spectacular. Congrats.
Great work! Im still learning (pretty new to the hobby) so your videos are great inspiration and a goal to achieve
Thanks for a lot of useful information Martin! There are things I have tried myself based on your videos, with more or less success. I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
I got additcted to your "Ma Frends!", I', waiting it for the new chapter every Friday. Thank you for your great videos and amazingly detailed work. Your models are far beyond a hobby and I'm happy you are able to make living out of your passion.
In a long line of great & informative videos, this one is my favorite.
I am learning figure painting as well. I agree the sculpt of the figure is important. No matter how complex, a good sculpt will assist in painting.
BTW, the little dog was the best part & I'm sure it will add realism & "life" to your diarama.
I hope to become as good as you are.
Wow, those heads are amazing when you had finished.
Just say WOW! 😱 Top notch figures and Jagdpanther model👌👌 Thank’s for the videos 👍
Looks perfect. Nice to learn from You! All the best for You! ;)
Totally agree with your points about diorama modeling - I consider the base one 'model', the figures another and the vehicle or vehicles (tanks, cars, trucks, APCs, etc.) still more...
Fantastická práca!!!
Actually this figures are awesome. I've been looking for such method for sges. Thanks a lot!
You never let me down. addicted, attractive, skillful figure painting touch by touch.
Excellent!
The oil lining is actually superb at subtly defining the figure. Really well done, and yes, add more animal to your dios :)
Absolutely love your videos and find them super interesting. Another option you could do to make the arms more interesting is to possibly add grime on them, like grease and oil from them maintaining and living in the tank.
Pin washes and oil paints work perfectly on figures! I've been mixing different techniques from different leagues of scale modeling in my bust-and figure painting
Looks amazing, As expected lol
Masterpiece 😱😱😱
