- It's time to make this two-tone camouflage more interesting. We'll apply some "wet" techniques like filters, oil dots, washes, ambient occlusion and also some fake color gradients which resemble the color modulation technique.

Never. Ever. Disappear.
Seriously this is the best modelling channel I've found, and you make it so straightforward, and a bit of humour always helps. You have helped me so much with techniques, and I'm sure other people will agree.
"The wild camouflage does the job great" *STEALTH 100*
Absolutely brilliant! I’m an ex-tank crewman and i find it interesting model makers rarely show the effects of the crew’s occupation on the vehicle. There have always been rules that vehicles must be mounted from the front. Over time this makes a discoloured path over the front and onto the turret where it splits as commander and crewmen enter via their hatchways. Engine decks have a lot of discolouration due to fuel and oil spillage as well.
Martin's lessons, the best part of Friday, after seeing my daughter and some beers, logically. well ... maybe even better than beers.
nothing is better than a few cold ones on a Friday evening!
@@NightShiftScaleModels In a first view, my friend, it's true, but, when do you have 57 and (If you have drink a pair of beers) do you need to pee 5 times in the middle of the night...Certainly Do yo prefer wheather a tank during the day!!! Great hug my friend! Very hot here in Brazil, acrilic paint get hard inside the cup of the airbrush.
MARTIN!!! I LOVE IT!!! Seriously, you are a gift to the UA-cam modeling community. keep up the good work =)
YES! This is a prime reference video - by covering several complimentary techniques in one session, it becomes far more apparent to the viewer what the effects are and how they build to a cumulative result. It pushes home the value of your process a lot more easily than some of the longer paint jobs where comparing the look from one week to the next is not so easy. All your videos are excellent - it just kind of makes it 'pop' and seem doable when you get a nice little chunk of progress like this one though.
Makes me want to head into town and get some oils!
"I cannot pronounce [the name of German tank] without breaking my jaw." HA! Just spit my coffee.
Says someone, who calls the icecream "zmrzlina"
Rutscher is pronounced like "root-sher" with a short "oo" sound
@@oraszuletik Zmrzlina is eesy-peesy. You should try "rukavička najvyrukavičkovanejšia" 😄
Night Shift Damm boi, what does it mean?
@@kshatriya1414 It's just one of those word plays without any meaning, so it's meant to be hard to pronounce. You only say it if you want to challenge your friends so you can laugh at them while they struggle to say it fast. Or you say it several times to "warm up" your tongue before a speech. As such, I don't think it can be translated, but since literal translations are so fun, it's something like "the gloviest glove"
"What's up, you handsome human beings?!"
But what about the rest of us?
Just wanted to leave a huge "thank you!".
For all your perfectly made videos and all the amazing techniques you show and teach us.
I was calling myself an advanced modeller when I started my own channel more than 2 years ago and I stuck with what I had already learned without getting significantly better.
But thanks to your channel I learned so much already and keep learning new stuff so that my own skills are pushed to a whole new level.
Again: A really big thank you!
Thanks so much! To be honest, I also found myself to be a little stagnant. I just got into my comfort zone where I was very happy with each of my finished models and didn't see any reason to try different stuff. Also if you focus only on complex, detailed and expensive builds which take you months to assemble, you definitely don't want to experiment on those.
But since I started this channel I've been building more simple models and also experimenting with new techniques, or techniques I didn't use in a long time and it's so much more fun, even if these models aren't my best!
I subscribe to a lot of UA-cam channels, but I enjoy your videos the most.
I'm surprised you don't have way more subscribers, but if I am honest, I think it is because nerds like you and I are not so common....LOL. Keep up the great work!
Your sense of humor in the face of language difficulties is ... amazing!
I tried to learn German for five years and today I know ... NOTHING or almost that !! Hahahahahaha... hugs
Since I started to watch your videos I see a real improvement in my skills of building and painting models, thanks.
That camo is awesome. You've inspired a non airbrush hobbyist 😃
You are a god damn blessing to UA-cam’s modelers these videos are so in-depth and funny keep up the good work
STOP INSPIRING ME TO SPEND TOO MUCH MONEY BUILDING GIGANTIC DIORAMAS!
Great work love it!
It looks like a salamander 🦎
Oliver Viehland ok the ill make something a diorama that IS to big...
I love how you demonstrate technique and not just build the model!
That ambient occlusion technique wants to make my brain hurt but it works and it looks amazing.
The filters and oil dot weathering sure helps to blend those camo tones together. Great stuff Martin.
Another Friday video with Uncle Night Shift. 😎
Your techniques/videos are always well explained. Nice work going from straight paint to the current state. Look forward to more techniques.
Have a nice one.
I don't know what real life effect the first layer of oil paint was replicating, but it definitely improved the model.
I've always wondered what the point of filters was, this video cleared it up for me.
Thanks uncle nightshift
Awesome as always. I thought in the beginning the highlights were overdone,but once dry they blended beautifully. Lovely job. As always....G’day from Australia mate.
I looked at your videos for the Rutscher build. The box cover art showing the tank in a large solid dot camouflage similar to an "octopus-style" paint job looked interesting. I guess you'd call it an ambush paint job. Of course, it is a proposed tank and entirely your "canvas" with which to experiment. As always, you do a really nice job on your builds.
Historically the German paint won’t fade. I just watched a show from a museum where they were talking about the paint, and that was one of the requirement was it was at its lowest shade.
Your videos make each of my Friday much better :)
I love your videos! But it cracks me up that scale modelers have adopted the 3d term "ambient occlusion" as some sort of technique. It's just shading and enhancing shadows.
It all boils down to shading and color. I enjoy working with a cheap set of watercolor paints for this type of work.
Great model uncle Nightshift ! In a hurry to see the weathering
Dear Martin, another fantastic tutorial! Kind Regards Johnny
Excellent work, as usual, Martin! Very instructive, the oil paint modulation technique.
Panzerkleinzerstorer, a result of a Hetzer and Kettenkraftrad mating in the wild... Ahhhhh it's so cute and deadly... The parents must be so proud... ^_^
"AMBIENT OCCLUSION"!!! Thank you!!! Lets break through the crusty modeller syndrome! Rock on
I'm watching the entire series right now, thank you for sharing it!
About oil washes: I also like to use blue dots of oil colour, they give a nice saturation (for me).
Cheers, Meme Lord
Rutscher, see its easy. It rutscht. Great handpainted camo!
Great video. Definitely a master class. Bring on the chipping! 🍀
Adding pine needle branches, or branches from a tree, correct from where the tank would be operating in its theatre of war would be amazing because a tank destroyer would be hiding as much as possible to get kills a few branches or even more then a few around the top and front of the tank would look amazing my guy would love to see that on this model and I think it would make it even better
Yes exactly!! This is what I've been thinking about since I painted it! I even wanted to add numerous small tie-downs on the sides of the tank while I was building it, but I got lazy. If I added those, I could wrap a thin wire across the entire superstructure which would allow me to put some branches under them (that's how they did it in real life).
Hi Uncle! Looking good so far. Picked up a few hints and tips for German camo. Good stuff, great vid and thanks for sharing!.
Also, hope you had a great Christmas and New Year. Cheers.
Great video as always, Martin, thanks a lot! Can't wait for the next part.
Uncle NightShift!
Love your work as always.
Looking great Martin- I'll be honest if it wasn't for the GIANT shovel I would have no idea just how tiny this thing is if I saw it on display- have you considered doing a little figure to go along for a sense of scale? I know that may be outside of your normal routine that I've seen. But could be cool!
Thanks for another great video my friend... for the shadows, I airbrush diluted Tamiya clear smoke to get a gradient effect that's transparent but still provides depth... other clear paints (like yellow) can also be airbrushed as filters . Everything is then blended and toned down with AK Ultra Matt varnish.
Yup, Tamiya Smoke is excellent for this! You can also mix all clear Tamiya paints into a dark brown, dark green or whatever. Adam Wilder used to do this on some of his models.
Great job as always!
It would be super fun to see you paint and customize a Warhammer 40k tank! Like a Leman Russ!
Looks great. Not "overdone", so looks good. All the best for You! ;)
Seeing the thumbnail this is going to be a very beautiful tank
Commented on an old video currently working on tank myself. First one! I’m so excited to se how the final result will turn out
this is awesome!!! it helped with my l3 33 cc models because they are so similar
The Best videos!!! Thank you for these tutorials!
I kinda do the same. Lol...one thing modelers tend to not do is reapply pin washes in areas. It adds a lot of depth for such a small thing. Everyone tends to do one thing of each and call it a day. I know it's a personal thing, but it drives me nuts! Haha
Perfect video for my lunch break!! Keep up the good work!
great job dude
this tank looks soooooo coool, the amount of techniques is almost overwhelming, in a good way tho xD
yup definitely overwhelming. when I was starting this project I thought like this is the ONE model that won't take me forever to finish. I've never been wronger in my life. SPOILERS: it's not done yet 🤣
Another great tutorial - thank you.
Tony
Thank you , Martin .
What's up mate the tank hunter is looking awesome I really like the techniques you used I am going to have to try them out. Hey could you please tell me who makes that tool you used to punch out the bolt details I have seen you use it in a couple videos and I would love to get one. You by far have the BEST modeling channel on UA-cam have a good one mate
Thanks! The punch tool is from RP Toolz. They make a standard round bolt tool and a hex tool. I have both... they're not cheap, about 70€ each, but they'll last a lifetime and they definitely help you take your models to the next level.
@@NightShiftScaleModels
thanks for writing me back and for the info
After listening those bloopers, I'm now worried that you might be slowly falling to insanity with this project. :D
Nice Master Class!!!!
Nice job again. Inspiring for me ...
dang it I’m 2 hours late seeing this! oh well time to watch you trick our eyes again, with tips and tricks
Awesome job
Great modelling, and I love your presentation style. Very entertaining. One question. The oil paint for the oil dot filter looks quite thin? Is it straight from he tube, or is it thinned? Have you made a separate tutorial about that technique - he asks hopefully 😏
Beautiful!
Another great video! Thanks for sharing!
Damn, I am gonna use some of those techniques on my warhammer tanks
Classy as always
Hello Night Shift. Really enjoyed your videos, educational spiced up with a little bit of humor!
Question: What is the ideal surface to start color modulation using oils ? Matte surface or glossy surface ?
I see what you did there where you added dry oil pigments that will naturally "matte". But what is the initial clear coating though ?
Thank you very much for your feedback
awesoooome! (btw can you make a amx 10 rc build? i would love to see a rain-forest camo with mud etc. !!! :D )
I feel like you should have a before and after after you finish a wash
I tried to do that "from beginning to finish" montage at the end.
@@NightShiftScaleModels I think it would be better after you finish a wash or smt, plus it makes the video longer.
Would love to see you do this on an Allied tank painted olive drab.
Great videos!
When you do your weathering and chipping is it best to apply to a satin or matte finish?
You are incredibly skilled and you have motivated me to make my first armour model so I’ve order a tamiya m41 bulldog to try, I usually just make aircraft so this will be different.
Rescuer of brush painters
Please make some videos on soldering complicated/complex parts!
thank you for wonderful videos...please make video about how to make a stowage and flag for tanks
Totally awesome!
Looking amazing as usual 👍 I do have a question though, wouldn’t the replacement German gun barrels come painted in a rust red primer? I may be mistaken but I thought that that was the color that nearly all German tanks of that era were primed in.
I can’t pronounce it without breaking my jaw ? COME to Klaus German Class . GERMAN LERN IT NOW!!!!
ja ja natürlich
Im gona try hand painting my next model
Zaebis!
I'm building a Ho 229 and I love the camo on the tank it's going on the 229 thanks
It looks really nice. Could I also use water like thinner as well?
Wait a moment... do you not use a varnish after applying the acrylic base colors for enamels and oil paints? 😮 😮 😮
ONLY after I apply the base colors and decals, but after that point there's never any extra varnish 🤗
@@NightShiftScaleModels Oh, great! I missed that out actually. You said it all in the video previous to the camouflage. I'm such a dumbnut. Thanks a ton, man.
brilliant work mate
Great job bro!! Looks great! ;)
Great tutorial
i am building a revell 1/72 t55 am2b. I watched your tank track guide and i got some pigments, and mixed some rust pigments on thinner. i think it looks ok, but i dont want to put mud or snow into them, but i have a diorama i made, its kinda a muddy road on early spring with some snow. i might add some mud but i dont know.
Tracks are always covered by the terrain they traverse. Definitely needs some mud! 😊
Have you sprayed a top coat before applying the enamel filter over the acrylic paint?
Great work as always. Are there any books you would recommend(painting, building, weathering)?
What is that cute little killer and what is the history behind it ??Baby STuG?I have never seen this!
Hi, Im trying your technics on an imperial fist tank, (bright yellow), and Im fucking scared of how it is going to be xD, I love your videos :D
just make sure you won't accidentally turn the yellow into orange, brown or some other filthy variation 😅
(yellow, white and tan are your friends)
I had a quick question, I started doing oil modulation for the first time as an experiment, but I got a bit to excited and did the oils before I did a pin wash. Is it still possible to do a wash without removing all my oil paint? should I consider an acrylic wash?
Do you apply clear coats between the different layers? Filter layer, clear coat, dot layer, clear coat, etc?
Really nice!
Uncle Shift please say which oil paint use for shadows and highlights on panzer grey, 4bo, drab olive and etc.!
Nice! But in 1945 there were no "Kreuzschlitzschrauben".
It would be awesome if you could take the bloopers out and give tips instead during that time, or a look at some of your finished models.
Hi uncle Nightshift. I have a problem with filters. I have an AK tan filter for desert vehicles and when I put it on it leaves a powdery, chalky residue on my tank leaving ugly smudges. Any idea whats wrong?
Uncle Nightshift, is there a reason why you dont airbrush the filter?
Hey nightshift I’m on a small budget but what are some must have colors of the oil paint you use(like colors that would work for most models) these oil paint would definitely help my kits look better
Definitely a black brown, white, tan (or some dusty color), some green and that's probably it. If you're on a super tight budget these paints should work on most models. Like, black brown can be used for almost everything, you can mix it into a wash that will work on any color, create shadows with it, streaking effect, fuel and grease stains, you name it.
OR you can buy one of those crappy cheap beginner oil paint sets from an art store. I started with those when I was younger and as long as you remove the linseed oil, they'll work fine (squeeze the paint on a piece of cardboard and wait a few minutes until the oil gets absorbed into the cardboard)
Night Shift thanks for the reply and the heads up about the linseed oil
It is not that difficult to spell:
Root (like from a tree)
Shah (of Persia)
Root-Shah :)
Or Root-Chair - It depends which german accent you prefer. :D
Anyway: Great video as always!
Rutscher means Slide or one more
Literally it would mean "Slider" but it really isn't a word anyone uses for anything. I mean: It technically exists but that's basically it. :D
Which accent should I choose if I want to sound like an East-German comrade? 😁
@@NightShiftScaleModels So I could imagine Saxon ... ;-)
Can you apply filters with airbrush? If yes, the result like he did it with painbrush?
You can airbrush clear paints over your model to create a filter. Tamiya clear paints work great for this, although they need to be mixed with some clear varnish too, otherwise they'd be too opaque. I tried airbrushing enamel filters too, but it's actually harder to control their even distribution over the surface.
@@NightShiftScaleModels Okey thank you! I will look forwards.
I was just reading about this on Wilders website. Update: I added weld beads to my King Tiger. Not the easiest thing to do with putty and it looks like the guy that welded the tank was drunk. Some areas look like actual welding and other not so much lol I guess I will keep.
It's about practice, practice and more practice! Life hack: it's best to practice on Soviet tanks. It'll always look realistic because factory workers were drunk.
@@NightShiftScaleModels that was comic gold.
