Excellent work as always, my friend! I watch all of Martin's videos and I haven't built a model (WW2 aircraft were my 'thang') in almost 45 years! It's just the precision, care in building, painting and weathering that attracts me - I'm a photographer and observational poet and it's 'observation' that is the thing - the eye for detail, solving a problem of creating a particular 'effect' and putting this into a model is what makes your work a real work of art! Outstanding!
I got to say, that Lacquer Base MRP paints is ALL I use. I LOVE THEM. I gradually build up color and after a couple of layers, they cover so well, and look so clean when airbrushed, and even hand brushed the paint leaves no brush strokes when dried.
You should try making a black and white model with figures along with a black and white diorama. Make it all look like an old photo which of course would be in...well black and white!
I'm from Russia and leave in Saint Petersburg (before Leningrad) I began watching you and understood that you assembled and built very good models and diorams. Thank y for your video.
Martin, thank you so much for your videos. They are not only excellent tutorials, but are very entertaining with your commentary and humour. Well done!
Thank you nightshift you have helped me so much with going out of my comfort zone and trying new things, eventually I'm going to make a motor pull of a Humvee and tank but add lights to them
The only thing about your videos is that you make all seem so easy!! Seriously, you do an outstanding job, it is learning which technique you need to use to achieve a certain look. I know what I want, getting there is the hard part. Outstanding.
Great guide! I love the effect so far and look forward to seeing it finished. I think I'll definitely be taking some advice from this for one of own videos!
Awesome! I love the streaks and drips, hopefully I’ll use this soon. Looks great as always! Although your KV-1 is a classic, this one is going to be even cooler!
I take some thin double sided carpet tape and put it behind my paper stencils before I cut them out. I can then remove the backing they stick to the model. It reduces the chance I get any spray under the stencil that shouldn't be there. Love the KV-2.
It would be really neat if you painted the ring left from the bucket of paint on the tank like they put the bucket down as they were painting it and it left a big old ring on the hull or turret
Thanks for the Video, the white wash looks fantastic. The Preshading was worth the effort. Would you recommend the same workflow for a white wash on Tri Tone camouflage?
Man, you make it look so easy. I tried putting a winter whitewash on an SU-100 but it came out a bit of a disaster, lol Also, I wish I could get the ease of use you do with washes, I always struggle to keep it from either being wiped off too easily and removing the effect or impossible to clean up without accidentally taking off the previous layers (even through a varnish)
hello, I'm a big fan of your videos. by far the best modeller/painter I've ever seen. i must ask/ beg you to do a Maschinen Krieger armoured suit. preferably 1/20 scale. nobody ever puts zimmerit on them...
It’s time to do another meme diorama. Abandoned T-80BVM being towed away by farmers tractor. I know you don’t like to get political but the world needs armor modelers right now.
me watching this with model kits left to rot for years on my shelf because I'm afraid of making bad models and the time commitment required to make good ones
So good! What color was your first pin wash? Was it the dark main green (4bo) color of tank, just watered down? It definatly looks green and not black or brown. Did you mix anything in with the green?
just wondering what air compressor you use for your airbrush, i just got ahold of a single action siphon feed one, but the compressor sounds like a v8! i am looking for a smaller silent one, if you have any recommendations on witch one, that would be great. also can you do a guide to pre shading aircraft panels i cant find a good one and i need more details to paint my next big model. love what your doing, keep it up, have a good day!
Není to špatný,ale aby byl tank v zimní kamufláži jen na předku a celé věži je nevěrohodné.A pouze KV-2, které byly v zimní kamufláži, jsou německé kořistní. Všechny KV-2 byly totiž při útoku Barbarossa zničeny či ukořistěny, oni jich sověti moc neměli. A také nevím o tom, že by na kanonu byly nějaké "zářezy", ten byl zcela hladký, jak jak říkáte " psí guľe"🤣🤣 Asi chyba modelu. Takže i dle fotek německé zimní kamufláže, byl jen jemně "olítaný",že je vidět z části podkladová barva. Takže "WHAT IF".
Hey night shift, Is there a chance you are comming to Euro Scale Moddeling in the Netherlands? I know its far away but i thought it was one of the biggent moddelingshows in Europe so are you coming there? Greetings, A young moddeler
Last time I was this early this tank was still in service
Don't worry soon it shall be again.
If things keep going the way that they are a certain part of the world is a possibility lol
Woo! Some Night Shift goodness to make me motivated again to build my models!😊
I feel you! Martin and mike Rinaldi keep me going when I’m lacking motivation.
Are you planning on doing another full interior tank? Your A7V was amazing and it would be cool to see some others 😎
Seems like there might be another one sooner or later!
@@NightShiftScaleModels miniart t 55a perhaps?
Excellent work as always, my friend!

hear hear ❤
Thank you , Uncle Martin .

100% professional as always.
Unbelievable work , the paint came out great . Such good directions and guide .
SOOOO KOOOOOLLLLLLLL .
Mike .
I could watch you paint all day, it's kinda therapeutic tbh.

I'm from Russia and leave in Saint Petersburg (before Leningrad) I began watching you and understood that you assembled and built very good models and diorams. Thank y for your video.
I bet that chipping and rust effects made that massive turret stand out even more. Can’t wait until next week. Nice compact episode too. 👍👍👍
Enjoyed the vertical streaks
The best moment of the week : THE MOY FREUND TIME !!!
Martin, thank you so much for your videos. They are not only excellent tutorials, but are very entertaining with your commentary and humour. Well done!
Thank you nightshift you have helped me so much with going out of my comfort zone and trying new things, eventually I'm going to make a motor pull of a Humvee and tank but add lights to them
That's a really good technique for snow camouflage over a Russian green. I tend to work backwards from shadow, too. Great job!
Most reaslistic and superb winter camouflage, VERY impressive!
One of the more interesting and unique whitewash finishes - well done! 👍
Thanks for repping Michigan Toy Soldier. They have a great store in Royal Oak, Michigan.
Nice
The only thing about your videos is that you make all seem so easy!! Seriously, you do an outstanding job, it is learning which technique you need to use to achieve a certain look. I know what I want, getting there is the hard part. Outstanding.
Always a pleasure. Thanks Uncle Night Shift 💕
Thinking this channel is only one worth watching, good technics with humour. Makes it a must .
Thanks! It’s great watching an artist
Wow these looks incredibly real. I don’t paint models, but I will keep this is mind for some miniatures.
Looks incredible. Your winter white wash, is a massive inspiration, for the winter binge, I’m currently in with my models lol 🙌
I definitely must remember that. Very useful. And great result. All the best for You! ;)
this Vid just arrived as I need it. thank you for you stuff good sir..
Like allways teacher Night shift is The best
Watching this during a uni class, no regrets this is much more interesting
Wonderful! Thank you.
Great quality modeler! Excellent painting techniques and I learn more brilliant ideas! Thank You will continue to watch!
You should build a model Humvee, HEMTT, MRAP, MATV, C-HET, or any kinda modern military wheeled vehicle
Nice painted model
Amazing work night shift!
Pekné... Už sa teším na konečný výsledok, zároveň som zvedavý co bude následovat po tomto modeli... 👍👍👍👍🏅
It's a good day when Uncle Nightshift drops a video full of awesomeness!
I don’t know how you do it! It looks amazing every time I try to make a white wash it just flakes off in massive chunks all the way to the primer🫤
Great guide! I love the effect so far and look forward to seeing it finished. I think I'll definitely be taking some advice from this for one of own videos!
Hello Pete, nice seeing you here :)
I'll try out some this on my panzer iv in 1.35 scale 👍
Excellent as always, really like how you broke down the mapping technique! Thanks!
Great..........Fantastic, very nice and really winter Tarn
Awesome! I love the streaks and drips, hopefully I’ll use this soon. Looks great as always! Although your KV-1 is a classic, this one is going to be even cooler!
It's looking especially cool, this one.
your videos are always satisfying to watch with a nice cup of coffee 👌
The best part of Friday...:)
Ohhh I forgot today was uncle night shift day! What a great surprise
if you have troubles airbrushing white you should try liquitex white ink. Sprays like a dream and it has a smoother finish aswell. Great video!!!
I almost forgot it was Friday, but then I saw the notification and boom, my day was made better
I was planning to make a winter camouflage vehicle, so this will come in handy!
yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyy
its friday again so another video :)))))))
I love this! gonna start a KV-2 in 48th as well, then make a Yugoslav/Serbian M36 tank wreck with some reference photos I took myself!
What exactly is mapping? It's cool to see you partnered with Michigan Toy Soldier. Those guys are really nice.
Can't wait to see this finished :)
Nice tonk
Just perfect ! Congratulations !
I can imagin this tank like hiding behind half demolished house diorama.
Just recently finished a 1/35 kv2 wouldve been nice to use this as a bit of a guide but I was able to use your kv1 videos awesome video btw
absolutely brilliant
I take some thin double sided carpet tape and put it behind my paper stencils before I cut them out. I can then remove the backing they stick to the model. It reduces the chance I get any spray under the stencil that shouldn't be there. Love the KV-2.
Fantastic as always!
Wow a nice Tank🤘🏻nice Winter Camo
Greetings from the Bastel 🤘🏻Bude
Thank you for the explanations.
It would be really neat if you painted the ring left from the bucket of paint on the tank like they put the bucket down as they were painting it and it left a big old ring on the hull or turret
Omfg that painting job is soo good!
Hell yeah new nightshift vid! I'm hoping to build an IS-3 at some point soon
looks amazing, man! always love it when you do some unconventional camo!
Truly incredible work as always!
I'd love to see a tank Vs sniper diorama. Similar to the scene in saving private Ryan
My idol.
This will be another masterpiece! Great job! Now I want to build a Soviet winter tank too... 😄
Merci👏👏👍
Thanks for the Video, the white wash looks fantastic. The Preshading was worth the effort. Would you recommend the same workflow for a white wash on Tri Tone camouflage?
Огонь!!! Как всегда очень круто!
Another great video man, keep it up
Its freezing, uncle🥶🥶
I love doing winter camo on armor and your representation is awesome as always my friend 👍🏽👍🏽
Man, you make it look so easy. I tried putting a winter whitewash on an SU-100 but it came out a bit of a disaster, lol
Also, I wish I could get the ease of use you do with washes, I always struggle to keep it from either being wiped off too easily and removing the effect or impossible to clean up without accidentally taking off the previous layers (even through a varnish)
Nice work 😃👍
The post shading technique sort of makes the model look like the illustrations on their boxes
Can you try and do a tank model with an interior or an interior cutaway?
I wonder if kids white poster paint would work for the final step?
Glory to the KV 2 !
hello, I'm a big fan of your videos. by far the best modeller/painter I've ever seen. i must ask/ beg you to do a Maschinen Krieger armoured suit. preferably 1/20 scale. nobody ever puts zimmerit on them...
Very interesting to watch - regarding "discount codes" are there any in the UK or europe as buying from the US is way too expensive so saving nothing
Great job
🔵🔵🔵👍👍👍😀😀😀🔵🔵🔵
Getting "muh" coffee....be right back...
If you type in the definition of Model masterpiece, this video would definitely show up at first.

Looks amazing! Do you thin your black primer with anything? Keep up the great work mate 👍
So good! What color was your first pin wash? Was it the dark main green (4bo) color of tank, just watered down? It definatly looks green and not black or brown. Did you mix anything in with the green?
I thought you moved away from this green stuff for weld lines and started using something more orange/yellow?
just wondering what air compressor you use for your airbrush, i just got ahold of a single action siphon feed one, but the compressor sounds like a v8!
i am looking for a smaller silent one, if you have any recommendations on witch one, that would be great.
also can you do a guide to pre shading aircraft panels i cant find a good one and i need more details to paint my next big model.
love what your doing, keep it up, have a good day!

Great work you should make a panther next
Hey! Any thoughts on doing a recovery vehicle of some sort?
Can You then acrylic varnish the model when they have had streaking grime and/or white spirit used on them?
Hey night shift,
Is there a chance you are comming to Euro Scale Moddeling in the Netherlands?
I know its far away but i thought it was one of the biggent moddelingshows in Europe so are you coming there?
