- Last week I talked about some limited color palette or something... so tonight I'm giving it a go with just one bottle of enamel wash.
Turns out we can do a lot of effects without buying multiple products and paints, however, obviously, not everything can be achieved without using a few more colors, but that's a story for another video.

PLASMO and Night Shift at one day? Count me in.
All we need now is for Sergio Solo to begin uploading again and life will be perfect.
@Alex Halsall His videos were great (and still are)! At least we still have these other excellent modelers to follow.
Another great is Shuichi Hayashi. Just superb craftsmanship.

I was just about to write the same thing, night shift and plasmo 2 of the best.
The rookie has experience now in *CRUSADING*
DEUS VULT, FRATER!
This was actually very helpful for a beginner like me. While I am not really on a budget I still don't want to just go and buy every product immediately. It just doesn't make sense, better to learn using the current ones first properly. Thanks again uncle Night Shift!
How much weathering can be done with one paint?
NightShift: Yes.
Uncle, your explanations are such a treat to understand the insight of how you approach your modelling during all aspects of the building/finishing process. Describing details such as how much to "load" you brush with thinners - etc. Also taking into account the other mitigating factors such as items you cannot see, gravity and how your subject is sitting, plays a significant role on the overall effects on final display. You are achieving the intent of passing on "how to" but with a very easy listening, enjoyable approach to your videos, thank you.
every friday my roommate asks “u know what day it is ??” and then he blasts the volume of ur videos as loud as possible
Replying to the question asked in the first 10 seconds: not a lot from my experience, it will start clotting very soon and then it's unusable (again, my experience with most AMMO/AK enamels).
Also one technique that gives even more interesting surface detail to play with, is moistening an area with enamel thinner, do speckling with very diluted paint and just before it dries blend the effect with a soft brush. The speckles stay in the same place, but they are blended with the base colour giving some modest variation, depending on how much you apply ofc. I use it as a finishing step on aircraft, to give more of a dirty look
That sounds very interesting! Do you have a picture or video?
@@ScottKenny1978 no unfortunately, only of the finished result. But it's really as simple as it sounds. The "critical" moment only is when you decide to start the blending, which for me is when the surface has started going from satin to matt. Another thing is I do it with oils, which are easier to control and they only require more time to dry.
If you are interested, try soaking the surface with oil and experiment with different techniques. I also do streaking on planes that way or add a very light filter mixed with oil paint and thinner, tap it with a sponge and then smoothen the result with a soft brush. I have some pics of finished models if interested.
After watching many of your vids, I think a can conclude that modelism is not about building, but rather about making believe. This one is getting more gorgeous by the week! Thanks uncle N'Shift!
I love how much explanation he provides. Even if I'm interested to paint Infinity miniatures which mostly are painted sci-fi pristine way but with such weathering, I'm really tempted to experiment with some interesting details over those pristine armors they wear.
Heck, a lot of it is in the application... I've used a single rust wash for accumulated rust, then blended rust-water stains and also streaking rust - just through varying how heavily / locally I apply it, and how I refine, blend, streak it. My ISU Pusher was all one Enamel rust wash.
As someone who was both on a budget, and liked to keep weathering simple, I can definitely appreciate this video. Thank you, Martin!
Always good to start the day with an Uncle Nightshift video :D .
Flimzies certainly aren't missed over here in blighty, though are contrasted today with Rhino Cans.
(also a UK design, but on par with jerry cans for durability)
You videos are exceptional! I subscribe to hundreds of model building channels and yours is literally the only one I watch from beginning to end!
As someone who has little experience with weathering and is currently working on a British M3 Grant by Takom I'm really appreciating this series. Keep up the great work!
Very clever! I like seeing versatility used from one product. Thanks for sharing this with us.
I hear people say that you should use an acrylic gloss coat to protect the paint from enamel thinner while you are weathering. Personally that is true for me, as I had accidentally taken paint off while oil paint weathering.
Excellent. Thank you Martin, this is very helpful and its inspiring me to try this.
Another great tutorial. I can confirm that speckling is now a well used and effective technique in my model painting armoury - all down to you and your You Tube videos. So thank you.
Tony
Another great video Martin! I have not built an armor model in years, but your effective instruction and techniques has me itching to give one a go.
Chilling in class watching some of this greatness
It's pretty amazing what can be done with one colour and you've done it really well on this model. I do the same with Mig Industrial Earth and Asphaltum oil paint, in my opinion, 2 of the best weathering colours out there. Cheers!
Big fan of the layering process. Great to see your techniques.
Great vid Night Shift! Masterful work as always.
Hey nightshift, i have 2 questions:
1) What enamel thinner do you use?
2) What was the thickness of the lead wire you used in the building video?
i think he mentioned .2 mm thick if i recall correctly
My love for your modeling skills is like a boundless, lovely ocean.
This is also useful for duplicating filming models sometimes- when Star Wars first came out I immediately bought the X-wing kit and did almost exactly what you did. There was no such thing as premixed washes back then so I made my own by combining some black, red and yellow to get a sort of black-brown that, with different amounts of thinner, matched all of the weathering on the studio model images I could obtain.
Looks great, one thing though, rust on tanks in the desert... it didn’t happen that often. Go for more oil and grease stains, smoke stains, dust and even sand blasting effects.
You'd be very surprised.
Tracks in the desert would be bare steel and would rust just from the dew overnight.
Scott Kenny I’m not saying that the tracks won’t rust, I’m just saying that tanks in general won’t have much, if any, rust on them. Drive a few miles through the sand and much of the rust on the tracks will be gone. When I was in Egypt on vacation, most vehicles didn’t have rust on them when we went in land, along the coast, lots of rust. So it will greatly depend on where the diorama is supposed to be. Anyway here’s something about the topic: www.popularmechanics.com/military/weapons/news/a20374/the-libyan-desert-is-one-big-world-war-ii-museum/
Great stuff! Also, 1/48 is a perfect scale because the build is usually uncomplicated and gives you more time to practise weathering skills - takes up less shelf space too!
I always enjoyed and got a lot from your video. Thanks for uploading.
You have really great way - or rather ways - to work. Great done! ;)

Me: Oh boy here we go again
Very, very nice! I just started modelling again, after a 6 year pause. As it happens I started with the Tamiya Crusader Mk I/II in 1/48. I'll definitely try some of the things you did here, even though I won't compare the result to yours, to not immediately loose any feeling of acomplishment ;)
MARTIN!!!! Cool effect, bro. I really like that every one of your videos shows a different effect or technique
Another fine Friday night modelling with the best Uncle!
Another great video my friend very helpful keep up the good work 👍👍
today is that day you have Uncle Night Shift and Plasmo to watch, the best day
Your videos are the highlight of my week. Carry on with your fantastic work!
As far as these pre-mixed washes and Filters from Mig's and AK go, I often find them too thick out of the bottle. I don't much care for them mainly for the fact that about every time I buy them, it's all clumped up on the bottom and I have mix the hell out of them to break the pigments apart.
Such a pleasure to follow your explanations. Thank you.
Some point could you do some close support aircraft like Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II,
Ilyushin Il-102 or Sukhoi Su-25 please? I'd like to see what you could do with those. (Thanks for the video. I learned a lot from this build. Really like your builds and weathering.)
One of my favorite RUclips channels. I hope you do a 3 tone german camo soon. The tiger build if fantastic and inspiring
Very useful and inspiring. Thanks.
I love this channel, i dont even built models, i just like to hear uncle night shits beautiful voice
and of course, him building the model
British iron feels great
Beautiful job! 😍
Awesome video my friend, thanks for sharing!! 👍👍
Love watching these weathering videos always such nice tips!
Great result with just the one color! Honestly, you could call it done, excellent work 👍
Could you make a list of relatively cheap paints, tools and/or putties etc. for beginners?
Man so damn beautiful done awesome work.
Great idea for a video. Right on!!
Ha!. Just this afternoon I went through a few of your old videos and placed an order for a bunch of the weathering products. 🤣🤦♂️
Thank you , Uncle Martin .
I love your videos and am enjoying this series. Question - did you do a video awhile back during which you demonstrated painting a tow cable? I thought I saw you do a video like that from you, but I can't find it...
I’m a simple nephew. I see an Uncle Night Shift video, I watch and hit like.
Awesome video, I recently bought mig wash for green vehicles and was wondering if I can do something more with it than just pin wash, Thanks!
problem I have with pin washing - it can quickly look like a cartoon - akin to "Borderlands" or "XIII" videogame or something
Nice effect 👍🏼
This is actually really helpful considering that I'm on a budget.
(not to mention that i only have one wash in my kit at the moment)
Love your work.
that painted panel line under the turret was interesting
Nice! Keep up the good work!
I feel like i'm lucky for a change. Nightshift making videos on how to weather North African vehicles at the same time i'm making one.. :0
Hello uncle!
And holly heck I can't wait to see it weathered.
Been waiting for this video all week
Martine, nepřemýšlel jste někdy o nabarvení modelu v odstínech šedé se záměrem simulovat tak starou černobílou fotografii? Myslím, že by výsledek mohl být velice zajímavý a poladit ho ještě nějakým filtrem sépiové by byla naprostá pecka.
Have you ever thaught about using gw paints, like contrast paints or those acrylic washes/ glazes for weathering?
The only thing missing is the holes in the turret and burn marks. These things were death traps.
Again. Martin is the "Man"!
Yeah I'm early! So could you, like, please build the Tiger II in 1/35 from Revell?
Great work as always!
Everyone loves how this tank looks, but as soon as I let my Honda Civic get this dirty people call me "lazy". People just don't understand weathering sometimes.
Takes real patience to weather your cars. I let my 240 sit for months and got desirable results.
VERY NICE MY FRIEND
Hey Uncle Nightshift, I've found bottles of enamel wash can dry out pretty quickly between projects, or turn into a gunky mess in the bottom of the bottle. Rather than replace them, if I can use my oil tube paints, that would save some money!
Cheers!
I have been dropping a steel ball bearing into my paint bottles to help mix the paints. Army Painter sells a pack of at least 50.
@@ScottKenny1978 yeah, same here, no joy!
@@Mikey__R if mixing beads aren't helping, then I'd definitely just toss the washes entirely and go with oil paints...
Quickest way to get me to stop using a brand of paints is to have them dry out in the pot before I can use them!
@@ScottKenny1978 agreed! That's why I refuse to buy GW acrylics. I might be able to use the gunky ones for off label purposes, I'm sure a highly concentrated jelly like substance will be useful for something. But for pin washing, yeah, I'll use diluted oil paints.
@@Mikey__R I've found that their technical colors are really, really good, but most of my paints are Vallejo.
Excellent.
Im going to try this on my king tiger model.
I'm *
Another Interesting Video, thank You For Sharing n God Bless.
I have a question, have you ever considered making some WH40K models? And I don't mean just minis, but vehicles.
answer to the question in the title: all of it!
Just found your channel and im pretty new to models but what model companies do you recommend that are at least decent but yet affordable
I'm currently struggling cleaning up a resin model that I've pinwashed. I've sealed in the basecoat with an acrylic varnish before I applied the wash, but every time I try and clean the wash off it just strips the base colour off to bare resin. I'm utterly lost as to what to do.
10:08 I know the feeling :-)
Great.
british flimsy cans were so bad that the tank crews would regularly go around stealing jerry cans from the germans. but i'm probably telling you stuff you already know :)
Yes, there are stories of trucks carrying loads of full flimsies. The flimsies leaked so much that the drivers feared that the fumes from all of the leaking petrol would send them to the great beyond in a giant ball of fire. This is why there are lots of stains on tanks that carried flimsies.
I'd really like to see the next model to be a nashorn
Please do a model collection
So, witchraft. Got it.
Bravo.
model collection
Very cool
Model collection
Hi can you tell me what happens to all the dioramas when there finished please
This may give thee a stroke, trying to do something with a toon tank, but I'd be interested in seeing you tackle a World War Toons tank kit, specifically the M26 Pershing. I mean, it's an adorable thing, isn't it?
what do you think a good beginner model to work on would be? considering budget and a simple design for ease of painting to get started
What kind of vehicles do you like?
Cars can be very simple.
@@ollieboy4817 thanks i'll go and check them out
@@ScottKenny1978 i'm mainly interested in tanks
@@jdbutnotjd4756 then I agree with Ollie Boy's suggestion of older Tamiya kits.
One thing to consider is that you can also do 1/72 scale tanks, which usually are simplified compared to a 1/35 scale model, particularly in the tracks.
@@ScottKenny1978 Thanks i found the model that Ollie Boy was talking about and i'm going to get it as it is a very good price
Oh my god this thing looks awesome. How long did this part of the project take?
how do you find inspiration to finish a build that you have put on hold
Nice!!!!
question. do you never use panel liner on hatches etc?
can you do a model colllection
Hey uncle night shift if there anyway you could help me with interior weathering for a desert tank (I’m on a budget)
