It's so great to see a talented pro use this product! I've been bashed for using the Tamiya Weathering Master sets before saying it's a cheap hack technique. So again thanks for validating the use of this product!!
Glad to help! Yes, there is nothing wrong with this product at all. Fast and works fine. It's how good our work looks when finished, that's the real test - don't you think?
That’s how I thought and why these products were made for! I guess there will always be those people that have to complain about something. Thanks again!!!
These Tamiya Weathering Pads have really upped by game on Gunpla. Its so easy to apply light touches and easily fix mistakes if you feel like you have gone too far. I'm now trying to get all of them lol.

Do you lock the Tamiya weathering in with a light coat of varnish either Matt or Gloss. No one really talks about it but the weatering doesnt exactly dry so it can be easily smudged out if you handle the model.
"Hey, different now is they come with instructions. How cool is this? And it looks like it gives you a number of steps, etc. to use, that's very helpful. So, let's put that off to the side and not read it!" I just about shot milk out of my nose.
i know this video is old, but i just saw it as im getting into gunpla building. another trick you can do (with practice on trash pieces) is that you can flick the brush with the material on it. the flicks onto surfaces add random effects of both size and area of coverage. the finger trick to spread on oil/sweat in some areas will help this effect to stick, but not really needed. The foam applicator that comes with those effect kits, can be used in a very light touch dragging motion on edges and surfaces to create an "over time / dirty rain" effect, e.g. using the shin of a leg, you can drag from the top edge of the shin, down the surface. btw, as finding the actual model kit version of this effect tool is tough, using black or charcoal grey eye makeup can do the same thing (ive been using that recently and i see similar results).
Newbie Question: I just received this set and the instructions mention “semi wet” applicator, yet I can’t find one video instruction of anyone touching base on this. All videos show the powder applied right onto the model. Also the powder is hard and you can’t just scoop it off. Okay so do I need to break the powder down? Does the model or the brush/sponge tip need to be semi moist? Anyone with a experience are more than welcome to respond, thanks in advance.

Very clever work! I have two of these that I want to play with more as I improve my weathering skills. Brilliant video. Thanks for sharing the journey!
I bought pack C at first, and the orange rust works wonders, however, the silver and gun metal dried out and hard to apply, I tried water, zippo, and found that Mr. weathering color solvent helps a bit, but not prefect. I love the stuff so much that I bought another pack C. The silver is wonderful and the gun metal still a bit dry. I found it happens often with their metallic colors.... any tips on that?
Hi Lincoln, Happy Easter. quick question. when you do the weathering with the brush and let it settle for a while. can you spray a light mist of Matt varnish on top to seal it in or will the varnish dilute the effect? cheers Will😮
Man, you just opend a full new world to my eyes. By any chance do you know if regular (good quality) make up could work? I can't find this sets were I live. Cheers and great channel!
Can I apply these kinds of weathering effects directly on the plastic model or do I have to prime and paint all surfaces first? This is a lighter hobby for me, and I am simply looking to spice up some of my models that I've already constructed that were never painted or primed.
I have these tamiya weathering masters and have used some on my gundam converge figures and my hg leo but I dont know how to protect the effect! Is there anything youve tried? I dont want to rub off the weathering...
@@PaintonPlasticbyLincolnWright is Tamiya matte top coat spray okay? And does it alter the effects? I've heard someone say it actually darkens the weathering effects.
@@PaintonPlasticbyLincolnWright when he took in a dip in the toxic goo..wheww.. actually that image lives in my head whenever i start painting with a lot of thinner and am afraid ill melt the model
The video is a bit old but I will try my luck asking: I am trying to create an effect of lava like dust stuck on dark green armor plates. Would the black soot effect work on it or will it be covered by the colour according to your opinion?

Nice!
His excitement is as magical as his soot.
hahaha!
And so the tamiya AK conspiracy begins lol. Also its nice hearing a veteran builder/painter get excited about stuff so go and geek out
I'm glad Tamiya gets some competition, although haven't tried AK. Their branding looks similar to ammo MIG, wonder if they're affiliated? 🤔
It'd be interesting if someone could tell us if it's a rebrand or they are making it domestically.

How can you secure the weathering tho apply it with topcoat?
I like to shave pastel pencils for soot… usually I do it at the end of guns, and where the boosters would singe the paint.
Man, you just opend a full new world to my eyes.
By any chance do you know if regular (good quality) make up could work? I can't find this sets were I live.
Cheers and great channel!
Most welcome but I just don't know about make up as I have never tried but why not, test it out and please let me know. Good luck!
Can confirm by my girl letting me borrow her set.
They work the same haha

Yes! I'd suggest to clear coat it with a matte.
I have these tamiya weathering masters and have used some on my gundam converge figures and my hg leo but I dont know how to protect the effect! Is there anything youve tried? I dont want to rub off the weathering...
Yep, just flat coat them. Works. ^^

I'll buy that for a dollar"! Robo Cop was the shit! The father from that 70's show was ruthless in that movie!
THIS!!! 70s show "Dad" as Clarence J. Boddicker was the BEST!!!

Great video, after weathering should I apply any top coat ?
Yes, definitely
The video is a bit old but I will try my luck asking: I am trying to create an effect of lava like dust stuck on dark green armor plates. Would the black soot effect work on it or will it be covered by the colour according to your opinion?
Yes, I can imagine we can do this. Try it out and good luck. ^^
can I use a smaller paintbrush for that?
Yes of course!
Can you undo it with solutions if you make a mistakes,
Yes
Is this $17.95 US dollar? This thing is listed as 660 jpy on Tamiya Japanese official website, which is about 6 US dollars.
Thats AUD. I buy the rest in Tokyo for around 500JPY, that's the regular retail price.
The pencils probably a similar product to mr. weathering liner
Hello. Can this product replace Ammo or Vallejo pigments?
Yes!
Wow i almost tought you uses your missuss make up for weathering plastic model
Almost!
Hey, im actually using my missus' make up brush and sponges as weathering tools!
$17.95!!?? Holy Moses, I just bought a six pack (A-F) for $33...
My hobby lobby sells all 6 sets for $9 a set i wanna get all them but they would almost take an entire paycheck

12 EURO in Germany
‘Geeking out’ On a modelling channel..no such thing my friend. Lol.
It's a wax based product so be careful.
