Terrific. These Tamiya figures are really not terrible. They're never going to measure up to resin but they are certainly worth what you pay for them, good for practice and fine for all but front-and-center in most diorama work, IMHO
I don't understand why people trash your music selections. I find the music relaxing. Lot better than some of these goofballs yelling and talking like they slammed three RedBulls and a pot of coffee while Metalica is blasting in the background.
You sir are in my opinion the best figure painter on UA-cam. Since the corona crisis I went back into painting WW2 scale figures and with each figure I paint, I get better and better but I'm quite far from your level. I like how you make shadows and highlights. This is something I think is very important to make your figures come alive. At around 13:31, do you apply a pre made wash or do you make it yourself based on oil or acrylic paint?
Thanks very much 👍..........the wash is just a very diluted mix of whatever dark colours I have on the palette, which is usually black and/or dark brown
@@vladancovic5574 Sable brushes such as Winsor Newton, Kokinsky, Raphael make a difference; I felt that these brushes really helped me improve my output. But CWM hit the nail on the head.. are they worth out... well, only you can answer that one. ;)
Wargaming paints (Citadel, Army Painter as examples, but there are many others) will certainly work well on these figures. I mix and match using a variety of paints including those as well as Vallejo and AK.
the figure has a pin superglued in to one foot (an old paperclip) and this is pressed in to a wine cork which has bluetac on top to stop the figure rotating👍
Fantastic choice, so glad you showing us your painting skills on these plastic figures. Thank you.

Hey
When you use the big brush on highlights you tip the brush with spirit or something ? Thanks and great work.
No its just a dry brush that I use to feather the wet paint 👍
@@jameslawrie3807 Cheap as chips one from the local craft store 👍
Great work! What are your thoughts on Abtielung Oils flesh set?
Thanks........I've never used them so I don't really have any thoughts on them 👍
Great job. As a ball park figure, roughly how long would you say it takes you from start to finish?.
Thanks.......this one took about 4 hrs with drying time but obviously a more detailed figure with camouflage will take longer 👍
Well done. What brush/brushes did you use?
Winsor Newton Series 7 👍
Are this brushes worth that money as they say?
Only you can answer that one 👍

Great job!!!
What paint did you use for the ammunition?
Thanks.........the shell is a real brass shell with a dull coat on it and a light wash 👍
@@CWModelling Thanks.
Love the vid
Question can you use wargamenig paints
Thanks..........No idea personally but I guess so
Wargaming paints (Citadel, Army Painter as examples, but there are many others) will certainly work well on these figures. I mix and match using a variety of paints including those as well as Vallejo and AK.
What do you use to hold the figure at his feet?
the figure has a pin superglued in to one foot (an old paperclip) and this is pressed in to a wine cork which has bluetac on top to stop the figure rotating👍
@@CWModelling Thank you man, I appreciate it
Excellent video again , been watching alot of your vids. I'm a noob to all this was your base coat of field gray and black more like a wash ?
Many thanks...the fieldgrey was built up with several diluted layers and the black was a wash👍
Thanks CW.
Hmmm... not bad.
😔
How did you paint the shell?
its real brass👍
@@CWModelling wow that’s super cool. Where did you get it from?
They came from Ebay 👍
