      Hey uhh can you or do you have a video on mixing paints?.. i have this mech i built but it has seam lines everywhere so i use vellayo putty to cover the caps so i can paint over it but i cant quite get the nechs base colour..despite on the guide it has like this-
      60% of paint A
      30% of paint B
      14% of paint C
      4% of paint D
      As an example^ obviously the paints have proper names lol. But ive just been starting out in modelling and not being able to get the right colour of greenish gray has just destroyed my motivation lol..i could just do my own colour but i want it to be anime accurate😅

  • @philp8872
    @philp8872 Год назад

    Another great one!
    While I´m just speechless of your skills, I want to make a few comments based on observations I made in North Africa including Tunisia. I went there for holidays with my 4x4 car and saw effects on it as well as on equipment left behind by oil companys, such as abandoned caterpillars and other things:
    1.: Dust collects in the seamlines of vehicles very quickly, and it accumulates to a point that there is no shadow of the seamlines anymore. So if the colour of the dust is lighter than the base colour of the vehicle, it makes those seam lines look lighter. So the opposite of what we usually do with dark washes. A very light tone, sth 80% white and 20% iraqi-sand mix would fit as a wash.
    This happens not only in sandy desert conditions but in other very dry places too, i.e southern Hungary during summer if you drive on dusty roads for some time.
    2.: Everything that is in moving motion with sand will get polished to the bare metal very quickly. This happend to the rims of my car in Tunisia. So I would think the outer surface of the tracks, a major part of their inner surface, and maybe even the road wheels of a tank. Frequent sand storms can even polish a whole vehicle.
    3.: You did right in aplying rust. Rust forms from dew wich falls in the desert because of rather extreme temperature offsets. This means rust would mainly form on horizontal surfaces and barely on vertical ones.

      Uncle Night has said many times that figures aren't his thing, but I think he can do for figures what he does for armor. Getting skin and fabric and leather and such believable especially in smaller scales is a far greater challenge, I agree, but all it takes is practice, determination and more practice.
      Come on, he's doing diorama vignettes- give him some time and he'll be doing figures with believable sweat on them.

    Bit random, but I have figured out why on the exhaust the middle and top metal strips are closer together and the bottom and middle. For the top and bottom strips you have put them below the guide marker, but for the middle it is above the marker. Random but it makes sense why they aren't an equal distance. Anyway good job, and have fun with the diorama.

    Hey man!
    I just discovered your channel. I used to build models when I was a kid, but never like the ones you build.
    You constantly talk about your lack of skill, how there are modelers out there much better than you, professionals, etc.
    I don't really know about any of that. I just know that the models you build completely blow away the things that I used to build when I was a kid. If my skill level is 1, yours is 10!
    I've been immensely enjoying your videos. However, why not build some airplane models? Some ship models? Some science fiction models? The space shuttle? That's one I spent a lot of time with when I was a kid, and it turned out looking halfway decent. The best model I ever built.
    Anyway, I love tanks, too. But with your skill, I'd really love to see you apply it toward some airplanes. Like one of those Corsair Navy planes with the w-shaped, foldable wings. Or a P-51 mustang. Or an F-22 raptor.
    Anyway.
    Great job modeling! Especially that easy eight Sherman tank, with the concrete reinforcement. I'd never seen anyone use techniques like that.
    Have a perfect day!
