#Paint and weather a model tank M4 composite paint 1/35 scale Tutorial M4 sherman 1/35
A lot of interesting techniques and processes. Careful where you apply weather effects, too heavy is not good. Tanks are the home of a crew and they are scrambling all over that vehicle doing PMCS and loaded supplies an fueling. Their activities disturb the effects of weather and actually tell a story about their activities. I know that how? 26 years as an armor officer in the US Army. You are good and you will get better. Best of luck, Ed
Cheers for advice. I tend to only heavily weather eastern front stuff. The mistake I made on this build was was not applying a matt coat, so it comes across a bit dark. Am doing an M4 with deep wading scratch built. Should post a how to vid soon. All the best.
Just got done watching the Sherman video. And man what a beautiful job you did!
I love watching your videos
I hope to see a diorama in the future for that work of art.
Thats great to hear, appreciate the comment. It took a bit to finish this one off. I did a little bit of experimenting by bringing together a number of techniques. I have another 2 Shermans part built, a Pacific USMC and a M4 with scratch built deep wading d day one. Cheers again.
Great Video without any annoying SOUNDTRACK!!!! I wish more UA-cam channels would follow your lead!
Sorry I do put sound tracks on sometimes if I think it needs it.
Brilliant work here.
Cheers mate hope it helps
Great video buddy, super tips
Cheers, thanks for watchin and the comments.👍👍
Amazing work
Hopefully some techniques in the video that will help. Thanks for watching my stuff.🇬🇧
Good Idea using gouach for dust effects.👏
Just used in the King Tiger video, its very forgiving
Nice work and thank you for sharing. Greetings NOB from Japan
Hi, theres some brilliant modellers in Japan, very inspiring. 🙂
🤝👍
Just started rewatching this, in the beginning when you started preshading the model has this textured look, how'd you do that? Is there another video showing that?
Hi, it is probably part of the kit, moulded to look like a casting. I didn’t do anything to produce a textured look. I’ve posted another M4 deep water sherman too last month. Hope it helps
What a fantastic video, what air brush do you use please? Had to subscribe only just started in the hobbie
Hi thanks for watching. I tend to buy cheap ones from amazon for £20 or so. It may be a Fengda that I think I broke. If it is you can adjust the air pressure on it too. Hope you like my channel, I have 2 other 1/35 Sherman videos too if interested. 👍
@CT scale modelling UK ok I will take a look this one you did is fantastic
@@sweeneyTodd-de4by many thanks
Isn’t that too thick for pre shading?
Thanks for watching and comment, I guess it just depends on the end result. I haven’t watched in a bit but have post another M4 vid since then. 👍
What does the hair spray do?
Hi it reacts with water and paint on it is removed. Hope it helps
what make were the tracks mate?
Just out of the box nothing special mate
when you spraying claudy pattern the paint is to thick. You should dilute it. Claudy pattern it doesn't look good.
Cheers thanks for feedback.👍
