    I’ve been modeling armor for over 40 years. I’ve followed Sheperd Paine, Verlinden , Tony Greenland and other talented modelers, but you my friend are in the top master class. Not only are you talented you are a great teacher! Thank you for your detailed presentations!

      Verlinden fut la référence pendant de nombreuses années et inspira nombre de maquettistes. Il avait le sens de la composition pour mettre en scène ses figurines dans leur vie quotidienne pendant les conflits ou la vie civile. On peut dorénavant considérer que l’élève dépasse le maître avec Martin Kovac ! Ne lui reste plus qu’à prouver qu’il sache réaliser des dioramas tout aussi variés et impressionnants de réalisme.

      I agree with you. When I started watching Martin's lessons - started adding a little texture and seams to each model. But now I'm suffering... without the difference of models. Example: T-34 from dragon and MSD (Real plastic firewood) The experience has grown so much that only the color of the plastic distinguishes them. I feel like an insatiable student who wants knowledge and is waiting for a new lesson.

    Just listened to your interview on the Sprue Cutters Union podcast and you hit all the highlights of that episode in this video haha- gloss before decal, MRP evangelizing, and the power of inks. Great video as always! Not to mention it's nice to see some Soviet steel again- there's something so brutal and alluring about the designs. You certainly do these subjects justice with your work. The story that unfolds from what you've presented thus far really captures the reality of Soviet wartime industry in a way that makes the history come alive.
    As a curiosity, have you ever considered doing a kit from start to finish without an airbrush (except for maybe varnishing) for the channel? I'd be interested to see how far brush techniques can go and what skills you're able to refine, discover, or master. Cheers!

  • @abstractintell
    @abstractintell 2 роки тому

    Thank you for paying attention to Soviet armored vehicles. I would like to make a small clarification regarding the color of the paint.
    Russian modelers have long been discussing the topic of painting Soviet armored vehicles during the Great Patriotic War. True 4BO paint has not been produced since 1952. However, according to various sources, it was possible to restore the approximate composition and color. In the RSL color space, it has the following composition: 96-87-55 or a lighter version - 103-91-61. I think that if you have a calibrated monitor, you can quite accurately prepare a mixture of paints to simulate 4BO paint.

    • @jczeus
      @jczeus 2 роки тому

      Well, I don't think 4BO wasn't as standardized as are colors today. Then there is the issue of exposure to sunlight. One would think that colors always fade, but that applies only to years of exposure, which was hardly the norm in wartime. One source states that 4BO could get darker, not lighter, when exposed to sunlight. In short, I wouldn't worry too much about the one "true" 4BO...

    • @abstractintell
      @abstractintell 2 роки тому

      @@jczeus As for the influence of the Sun, then, of course, the color changed. However, the composition of 4BO was strictly regulated. Even the pigments that were part of this paint were of a strictly defined origin. Of course, upon the arrival of equipment in combat units, it was sometimes repainted to match the conditions of the area, and in winter it was completely changed color.
