Similar to the lungs.. When I first got a 3D printer (Anycubic Photon Mono SE) I did my first print with the printer on my modelling bench in my bedroom, I thought it smelt a bit bad so I opened a window but thought I could still sleep in there. I woke up at around 1 am dashed to the bathroom and vomited for around half an hour. I now keep the printer in the loft. Make sure you always have ventilation when working with chemicals, especially paint and resin!
That's interesting, lots of people are talking about this but honestly, I never felt anything or smelled anything bad, and I have the 3D printer right next to me... it just has no odor. Or my lungs are already way beyond saving :D
It amazes me how you can consistently make the most polished, detailed and unbelievably realistic dioramas time and time again. Love your work night shift
This looks great! I still love the paint job on the tank, it subtly offsets the desaturated nature is the scene without appearing too stark. I can’t wait for more!
I was in the middle of cleaning my airbrush after painting my panzer iv, when I looked at my phone and saw “Night Shift - 1 minute ago.” Ive never cleaned my airbrush faster before, and I rushed to be able to watch this video. Your work looks absolutely amazing, and like I most of the time say: I love your models and everything! :) What are you gonna build next? Greetings from Sweden, I’m looking forward to the next video :)
Nothing I’d rather do more, than spend my afternoon after 8th grade graduation than watching some Uncle Night Shift! Seriously, this stuff is crazy cool
hey nightshift! just saying ive been going through some really rough times recently, and your cheerful and soothing voice over and great content really helps me through things. its just so relaxing to watch everything come together. thank you for everything and dont stop making great content! :)
I would agree - great voice and friendly tone. This is part of the model making for me... it's an opportunity to leave the 'normal' world for a much simpler and safer place. My other thing is cycling - try to get 10 miles in a day, helps to come down and the fresh air and sunlight are good for you. Finally, turn OFF the news on TV - it's 99% garbage in any respect. I haven't watched terrestrial TV in 7 years now. Subscribed!
Man, those weathering techniques are wonderful. When you painted those walking planks with gray, I was like "nooo, you're making it worse". Then, as you made an exposed fresh wood imitation, it suddenly came to like and became much better than ever before. And there was a ton of moments like that in all of this video.
I really love how this diorama turned out! And I think the shallow puddle is much more fitting for the diorama. Especially when considering that the trench isn't flooded.
Very nice diorama. The moss is highly appropriate. Any area of high humidity is going to be rife with moss, mold, and mildew. I like that particular technique as well. Very well done.
Despite the nightmare, love the puddle detail! It’s such a great diorama! As ever! Loved watching the progress. Can’t wait for the next!! I wonder what it could be?!
I must applaud you for your efforts. You clearly realised how time consuming and hard it was but I can say it looks totally worth it to me. Fantastic work. I've really enjoyed watching your videos over the past few days.
Joke about pair of lungs is so reasonable, i remember how i tried to prime smol truck in room where i live and i had no respirator, just lot of masks, that was a biggest mistake i ve ever made, my room were more like a gas room, horrible memories
This is go great, it's like I can actually hear the conversation between the figurines. "Well, have you tried-" "Tried everything sir, I don't think we can move it." "Fuck."
Awesome work there!!! I adore WWI tanks and vignettes/dioramas because I love the quirkiness of the WWI tanks because they were all unique and weird since they were all developed from scratch and they still didn't really know/understand how to use the tanks on the battlefield apart from going over trenches, and I love making trenches and totally destroyed landscape because - both it's so unreal to even begin to fathom how on earth anyone could've survived the horrors but also because of all the details you need to create making said environment, all scratch built from materials and no quick 3D printer to help saving time... I frankly wish there were more WWI tanks so I could make more variants but I've made most of them already apart from Little Willie, but I'm about 70% there in CAD so eventually I'm going to be able to make one of them as well, albeit not in a battlefield setting since there were only one prototype without any armaments, but I plan to make a small vignette, or diorama, from the field trials. That should be pretty fun to build as well! Many thanks for sharing your work and processes! Great for both inspiration and entertainment! Way better than anything on TV anyway! ;)
The only thing I wanted to state is that the wood braces and walkway would be basically the same as mud would have obscured everything. So, I guess it works to add contrast.
Awesome result! Suggestion for you for that last touch… if you look at the tank sitting there it looks like it either just happened or it was placed there. The way to fix that is with a weathering step to create streaks matching the resting position. On our SFX models I weathered them in static and dynamic positions. A plane spends most of its life sitting on a tarmac so the weathering should be mostly vertical with some flying streaking. Depending on this relationship it tells the story of the use of the plane and environment. So on this tank if you weather it further in it’s resting position it will look like it’s been there for at least a few days in the rainy muddy battlefield. With a studio model I mixed water based paints with soapy water and misted it on and let it dry to get the streaks looking very natural. At this small scale it can be done with water and a very fine paint as well. I used house paints before, cheap and easy. Great work and interesting subject!
If I'd seen that model in the shop and looked at the box art, I'd have gone, 'Nah, its horrible.' But your diorama has completely changed my view. The story you've created has opened my mind to this monstrous piece of machinery. And the diorama itself is amazing. The puddle? looks perfect to me! Well done Martin!
I just found your channel and now I´m hooked! Did a little diorama type work in my teens but when watching you work I kinda feel like I did "paint-by-numbers".... Your work is pure ART, just amazing attention to detail... MASTERCLASS... Those amazing details is what make the scenes come alive!👌👌👌
Night Shift: "... I'm not that good in..." Everybody else: "Yeah... sure..." 😉 Keep up the good work, Martin! Your models and dioramas are truely awesome and your videos really entertaining. Thank you for sharing...
"2:1 ratio, ... so 6 ml of this, and 2 ml of that" :D Mas to moc krasny :)
Taky jsem si říkal jestli jsem v matice tak špatnej, že jsem něco přehlídl :D proto se to asi rozteklo a zateklo za pásku
I think he did that to see if we were paying attention.
🤣
... and remember kids, pay attention in school, otherwise you'll end up as a youtuber
@@NightShiftScaleModels See what happens when you don't pay attention in math class, lol!
So much "almost hidden" detail to explore!!! Excellent!
I KNOW RIGHT, the amount of concealed details could keep me searching for visual gems for HOURS. His dedication is ASTOUNDING!!!

Important is the 2:1 ration so 6 ml of resin and 2 ml of hardener." XD That one really got me!
"I know... It looks pretty weird so far."
Literally looks better than my finished product.
A lot of work, but beautifully done. And this diorama will now live forever on the internet in all its glory! Another masterpiece, Uncle!
It amazes me how you can consistently make the most polished, detailed and unbelievably realistic dioramas time and time again. Love your work night shift
When Uncle Night Shift says "My Friends" You know it's a good day
The diorama looks phenomenal with the tank and figures, great job and keep up the good work!
Saw the thumbnail and thought it was a historical video essay... Yes you did that good of a job on this project so realistic!
Yesss, it's that time of the week! Very eager to see the result.
This looks great! I still love the paint job on the tank, it subtly offsets the desaturated nature is the scene without appearing too stark. I can’t wait for more!
Absolutely brilliant you have set my mind thinking. Looking forward to the "Epic WWII" build.
You should make the wooden trench "wall" cracked and bent on impact of the tank, so it adds more weight to the tank and make it feel a bit more alive.

Thank you , Uncle Martin .
No words can describe how amazing this looks. You deserve all the breaks Uncle Nightshift, take care my friend.

You are my first reference in the dioramas... You are always an innovator... And always forward... I salute you from Iraq
The diorama turned out superb, my friend. Love that puddle, it's one of those little details that really add value.
What a masterpiece! So much nuance in all the clutter.
I must applaud you for your efforts. You clearly realised how time consuming and hard it was but I can say it looks totally worth it to me. Fantastic work. I've really enjoyed watching your videos over the past few days.

Dude that’s so relatable I liter. had to put a short over my face like attack of the dead men
Fantastic job- you are a outstanding artist- second to none!
Simply amazing. Next up! The two french tanks!
Kudos, Uncle--another beautiful project. Your attention to detail never fails to impress!
Very satisfying composition, and beautifully executed.
The thumbnail is awesome. The whole diorama looks like it weights at least 50kg.
This is go great, it's like I can actually hear the conversation between the figurines.
"Well, have you tried-"
"Tried everything sir, I don't think we can move it."

Just amazing! Fantastic end result
I really like your ground painting technique
Liked that you teased a bit about what's next.
Фантастика! Это просо воплотившаяся хроника, цветогамма один в один!
Martin! Another inspiration to tuck in and get at it in my own stash! And that puddle is fine. Looks really good ma'frend.
Uncle Chip Moss delivers again!!
Nice save with that crater!
Just a trench is like saying the Eiffel tower is just a bunch of steel girders...
It’s amazing!! The cross reminds me of the movie the Big Red One, love it!
Looks awesome I love the buckling of the trench where the A7V slid down into it those little details make the diorama
The effort was well worth it, it looks really realistic, very well done.
Brilliant work there, I like the fact the Tank has been cannibalized of it's Machine Guns ... keep up the great work
Dear Martin, Fantastic workmanship...as usual! Best Wishes Johnny
Awesome final results, wood effects are very nice and contrasted!
It is amazing how beautiful the recreation of of such a wreck/disaster can turn out. You got mad skills!
For the next scene I would love to see a modern t series tank in a tank berm or a natural hull down position.
Outstanding job on the diorama.
Greetings Martin, that is a totally awsone diorams you have completed, congratulations on a outstanding effory, best regards from Australia.
Brilliant build and the trench is just awesome, even with the leaky puddle!
Another master work. I learn something new, with every project. Thank you for sharing your work.
Watching on June 6th… God Bless.. Thank you Uncle Night Shift…!
Another lovely project .
Uncle is improving.👏🏻
The trench is the best part of this diorama in my opinion, but it is amazing in everything, great work!
"ULTRA-MEGA-GIGA-REALISTIC DIORAMA TIME" Made my day :D
Fantastic work! You're the best, uncle night shift.
3:27 “ and our wood colour was xf-52 deck tan” and then shows us xf-52 😂
Another staggering diorama. Many thanks. Can't wait for the next one
Fantastic diorama.
Fantastic results, well worth the time and effort.
This diorama looks awesome (it made a goofy looking tank look badass.). 😃👍
Outstanding work!
Fantastic diorama
That turned out beautiful !!! Well done 👍
That is so good. I love your technique. I have learned so much from you. Thank you so much!
Loved this series!

Full stop!
Bark tends to be the darkest part of the tree which is why you did the darker color at the end on the wood ;)
Amazing. Thanks for some ideas for my own diorama.
Simply amazing and such an interesting model.
Stunning… love the 2:1 ratio mix ;-)
Turned out great!
Totally Awesome my friend!!!!!!
Congratulations on your completion diorama!
A7V is one of the my favorite WWI tank, and I was very impressed by your brilliant work.
OUTSTANDING
Awesome as always brother. It would be cool if you could do a WWII Pacific Theater tank with a Japanese tunnel system in the diorama.
As always, a great build. You've inspired me to paint my next diorama black, We'll see how that goes.
Now we need a WW1 diorama with a Renault!
It would be super kick/ass to wee what you can do with a tank from Warhammer 40 000!
If I'd seen that model in the shop and looked at the box art, I'd have gone, 'Nah, its horrible.' But your diorama has completely changed my view. The story you've created has opened my mind to this monstrous piece of machinery. And the diorama itself is amazing. The puddle? looks perfect to me! Well done Martin!
I always look forward to a new build , great work and it never fails to impress me how realistic it looks 👍
Nothing like fixing a happy accident, nice work Night Shift👍👍

Another masterpice bro. Cant wait to see the next model
dude those trashed tanks dioramas are pretty sick..
I’ve really enjoyed this series if videos thanks dude and amazing result as always.
Fantastic finished diorama. No complaints from me about your slime obsession.
Night Shift: "... I'm not that good in..."
Everybody else: "Yeah... sure..."

Keep up the good work, Martin! Your models and dioramas are truely awesome and your videos really entertaining. Thank you for sharing...
What you are doing is amazing! 👌👏👏👏
A great diorama. Lots of inspiration. Congratulations.
Amazing work!
