Dot filters are awesome. I feel they really add something extra to the finished subject. Great video and explanation sir!
Thanks mate. Just so you know, I have added your channel to my featured channel list.
Great!!!!
Being a Chinese who is week in listening English, I have been looking for an English web-site, teaching model painting techniques, with Chinese characters for many years!!!
Thanks to моделизм!!! How can I express my feeling! Anyway, thanks again and again!!!
Thanks. I hope you understand the captions / subtitles
If you place the oil paints onto a piece of thick cardboard it will soak up the oil content, use that instead of your palette.
I'll be using this method on my M26 Pershing! I'm excited to try it out, what a great job you did on your T-62!!
Excellent technique! I'm going to use this today on my Gundam kit build.
Just make sure your model is sealed and that the clear coat or matte coat is fully cured before you attempt this.
I know I'm kinda off topic but do anybody know a good website to watch newly released series online ?
Yea, I've been using flixportal for since april myself :D
I am currently working on a T-34 falling through a bridge diorama on my channel, and would really like to try a dot filter on the tank. Never really understood how to do a dot filter. Your video helped a lot! Thanks!
No worries mate really appreciate it.
Thanks for taking the time to show the tech mate. :)
It looks very nice. How do you address the chipping when using this tehnique?
Do you use any gloss varnish to protect the base paint layer prior to weathering? If so, what type of varnish do you recommend for oil dot filter or enamel washes? Thank you for your great videos!
thanks, nobody told me about this in the early 70s.
No worries mate
Thank you very much👍
You are welcome
Very nice workflow 👍
Thanks Sprue Fascination mate
Awesome video! I also use cheap oil paints because 6.50 for one tube is just ridiculous.
Thanks mate. Those paints are pretty good.
Thank you so much sir!
First response , liked it very much !
Thanks Karson mate
Do you apply an acrylic varnish to the kit before applying the dit filters?
That's a great technique brother
As always, much appreciated.
Thanks for sharing.
No worries mate.
can i use tamiya thinner ?..arcylic thin ?..enamel thin ?..or lacquer thin ?
Lovely job, very informative !
Would you use different colours for German grey/ Desert khaki or just the darker / lighter shades of the above ie blue for German grey/brown for German yellow .
Edward.
Thanks mate, really aooreciate it. Actually I have no idea what colours I would use, I would mybye try painting a plastic spoob and experimentung on that first maybe.
Much appreciated 👍
I have mr super clear matt. Will that work for this purpose. I also have Vellejo clear gloss to seal the paint work that I've done. 2. I painted a recently finished M-60A3 in reforger colors. Which one of the oil colors should I use for this filter.
Is the "up and down" motion you mention moving the brush up and down while keeping the bristles on the surface OR pulling from up to down and then rising the brush off the surface and then moving it back to the top and then lowering it back on the model and pulling the paint down?
Thats a very good question. I didnt think of that while making the video. In reallity it is mostly pulling from up to down and then rising the brush off the surface and moving back to the top. However when the paint is still mixing and you have the rainbow effect at the start, I sometimes keep the brush on the surface till it mixes and then start pulling from up to down. Hope that helps, great question, really got me thinking.
@@ScaleModellingVideos Thanks!
@@uglitor No worries mate
Thats an amazing technique! Is it possible to use acrilic colors?
Im working on a japanese model plane with acrilics and dont know if this technique allows using water base colors.
I have never used this technique with acrylic colours. If I was to try I would probably try it on painted plastic spoons first.
Nice! I've never figured out how to do filters until this video, thanks for sharing! Good choice of subject too, a T-62! Trumpeter?
Thanks mate. The tank is a Tamiya T62. I will release the video build for it next week. If you subscribe you shouldnt miss it :).
@@ScaleModellingVideos yup subbed :)
@@oribarsan9873 Thanks mate much appreciated
Thank you for this tutorial! Do you have any tips for what colours to use on german armor painted with dark yellow, red brown and light green?
Im Sorry I wouldnt have an idea, but if you gloss coat your model properly, you might be able to experiment with different colours, and if you dont like them, clean them and start again
I've had more good experiences with this technique using a satin coat by either Mig's or Vallejo. For me it seems matte takes hold too quickly and gloss doesn't take the filtering very well. Satin however, gives me time to work and blend colors as I wish. Anyway, nice work and thanks to Reddit, I've found your channel and subscribed. Is that a T-55?
Nm/it's a T-62 I should have read the comments lol.
Yes it is. Appreciate the feedback, i do agree with the satin coat, i use that more on aircrafts, as I like more grip on tanks/ afvs for filters. Anyways I will post the video build of the T-62 next week.
How long did you allow the clear coat to dry before applying the filter paints ?
Will a Matt varnish ruin this?
Its a tough one, a matt varnish before the application of the filter will make it grip more and have a stronger effect, cleanup will be harder. As for a matte varnish after applying the filter, I think if you use Alclad, it should seal your work in fine.
OK?
Ok? OK!
okay
Ochre is pronounced oaker or owe-kur, okay? Nice job.
Thanks for that.
@@ScaleModellingVideos sorry some people are like this…
@@basshead9872 I really dont mind mate
Dude, you’re using way too much paint for a filter, that’s more like a wash.
Think of a filter as looking at the model through a pair of tinted spectacles, it should be a barely noticeable transparent layer to unify the colours and add a hue. Doing it too thick changes the colours and hides the colour variations such as the modulation and occlusion you worked hard to add in previous stages.
Thanks for the tip
Oak-er.
its pronounced oaker
Thanks for that mate
