Alright, I hear y'all! I'll keep the intro then 😁
It's your channel my dude! If you feel like the intro does not mesh with your content, or you personally dislike it, then by all means, dump it! One's image of themselves is a substantial factor of their happiness, and we want to see uncle Night Shift happy, cause that's when he makes his best content, so do what makes you happy! I personally find the intro comforting, and it sets s relaxing mood for me, but I feel like I'm not just speaking for myself when I say I'd still watch your videos if you got rid of, or changed the intro! You do you, and keep making cool modeling (and if you want, other) vids! It's nice to see quality content coming from this end of Europe! 😁👍🏻
My wife and i enjoy your tanks. And you say sometimes and you say .i dont like it, she just laughed. Saying whats wrong with it, its perfect. I said thats the problem with him hes a perfectionist like me. Lol
Yay!
Great!!! It is so nicely made, distinct & 100% your personal trademark.
Yay!
Sad, i really liked the intro honestly
I find myself skipping intros in all videos, and it can get particularly distracting when you're binge-watching something. Also, now I can jump right into action without a prologue followed by an intro :)
agreed. Its the little touches like that that really draws me to a channel. yeah they might be tedious to do but that extra effort really pulls the whole thing together IMHO. Not going to stop me from watching though
@@NightShiftScaleModels put it as an outro?
Night Shift I get it, I’m just a bit sad the intro is gone, I never really skipped it because it’s short and really nice lol
the intro is awesome D: keep neon intro pls
When his worst model is. Better than my best:
I know the feeling. By an order of magnitude.
Just keep practicing, I used to really suck (and I’m still not the best) but a few tool changes made them look better
@@getoutside9854 lmao yeah just watch a shit ton of videos for tips and stuff and you’ll improve greatly. I’d know, half the techniques I use now I didn’t know when I started and my models when I started are.... well yeah....
Edit: By look better I mean that glue puddles on the side went aways and I started fitting parts etc I didn’t mean paint or anything
practice makes perfect , never underestimate urself!
RIP neon intro 2018-2020 we had some good times.
The intro, especially the music and photo effects, make them recognizable and allow you to take a look at the total content of the video. I'm really going to miss it.
I'm with others.
I LIKE your intro. It's "soft and relaxing" to me. It gives me a vibe of "The day is over. I can take off my shoes, tie and pants, grab a glass of fine whisky, sit down in my comfy chair and just watch someone build a model".
..
It also instantly tells my brain "Hey, this is Night Shift...because sometimes I put a dozen "model building" video's or miniature painting video's, or diorama building video's up on a playlist...then just listen to it as I do my own thing (usually miniature painting). And, to my untrained Canadamerican/Americanadian ears...you and PLASMO have that "eastern bloc accent" and for a second or two I'm not sure who I'm listening to. But if I hear that electronic bzzz-buzzzz-CLACK! of your into...I know it's you speaking next.
..
Anyway...
..
KEEP THE INTRO.
..
(Others, Like this comment if you agree)
night shift, not night watch.
@@andrew6745 LOL! That'll teach me to wake up, grab coffee, and post before drinking.
;)
Fixing now... :)
I will miss the intro if it goes away, but it will also become a nostalgia thing I guess
Yes keep the intro. Keep the chill quiet funky background music, and the sense of humour.
Pair bordum.
Rest in peace, neon sign intro. You will never be forgotten.
Abnormal women 1983.
I only came for the neon intro! The whole modelling thing was just an elaborate extended end credits :(
Neon intro still amazing though...
Dude! I love your intro! I'm struggling to imagine your channel without it... It sets the vibe for the rest of the WHOLE video. I don't find it to be distracting when I was binge watching a few series of yours. It also is a nice little reminder of which modeller it is that I am watching, and with the audio too you don't even have to look. I like the retro style, the colors are matching and so is the sound. It's not too much, it's not too long. It's perfect.
Hope you change you mind x)
PS..
If you're sick of it because you're seeing it so much in the edit process, I think you should add it as the final touch, if you're not doing that already.
Which one of these did you like the most? Should I make a similar model in the future? Let me know!
I like the one @0:46
;)
Can you please build the dragon wirbelwind?
I like them all! I have a question...what adhesive do you find best to attach p.e. to the styrene?? Thank you in advance!
What's the first one called, with all the spikes and ERA blocks?
My favourite was the whippet!
Friday again! I look forward to these every week!
Won't bear.
I really like the intro, it's quick and sets you apart and is part of your brand. And thank you for all the great tips, I just recently returned to kit building and your weathering tips are what has inspired me to add 10 kits to the stash and complete another 8, well sort of complete, there's always another layer of weathering I could try. But the intro is great.
I never realized the face behind the craftsmanship was so handsome
Sad to hear that the intro is going! I thought it had a chill vibe, with the neon light sounds and all.
The Nagmachon looked very cool, and the conveyor belt armor ones too. The "what if" tanks were very cool, and I thought the Maus looked really awesome in that color scheme! Kind of looked like the numbers and markings we're made with chalk rather than painted, which is very cool.
I hope you go back and paint some of these bad boys up later on!
Aww I'm gonna miss the intro. It had chill vibes
I'll miss the neon intro actually :o I liked the idea of turning on the lights for the 'night shift' starting...
You remind me of my uncle, He also used to do models. And he is the one who got me into modelling.
Goddamn, i might have gotten a tear in my eye now, May he rest in peace.
You even look like him you gracious bastard.
Damn, i know what this collection is lacking. He is big, he is bad and he is a cat! You all know who he is, a Panther!
@Cody Sonnet nein
@Cody Sonnet no periscopic sights so it doesn't have the chieftain seal of approval
oh yes
@Cody Sonnet the T-34/85 was faster than the Panther, german tanks are fast in paper but their acceleration is bad which means its harder to get to top speed. Plus when driving the tank the driver must be careful in rough terrain to not break the drive sprockets. Another thing is that the tank isn't perfect nor the first MBT, the frontal armor can easily be penetrated by 100mm guns unlike the Centurion Mk.1 (except for the weak lower plate) and yes the 7.5 cm KwK L/70 was one of the best guns in the war but it didn't have enough penetration to destroy heavy tanks such as the IS-2 Mod. 1944's frontal plate. The gunner also didn't have his own independent sight only having the gunner's sight and the commander can't turn the turret which means it takes longer to point the gun at a target than say an M4A3E8 Easy Eight Sherman. Plus there were alot of reliable issues with the Panther due to its very short development period which all tanks have (Pershings also had reliability issues since many were rushed to put into service in the late war but the 76mm Sherman is by far better than the early pershings in numbers and reliability). The panther also didn't have a stablizer to help it fire on the move or atleast make it fire much more easier so it isn't perfect. At first sight it looks like it has the perfect stats between firepower, armor, and speed. But it isnt and thus the Centurion Mk.1 is the true first Main Battle tank (PLUS the panther was designated as a medium tank and cannot do most tasks that MBTs do while the Centurion Mk.1 is designated as an MBT)
@Cody Sonnet False, the IS-7 was created to defeat the Jagdtiger's 12.8 cm Pak 44, plus the IS-3's armor is 200mm frontally (without the angle taken into account) while the KwK 42's gun can only penetrate at around 185mm at 100 meters with the Pzgr 39/42 APCBC Shell. The Pzgr. 40/42 APCR Shell can only penetrate 200mm from 100 meters to 750 meters as the penetration value for the Pzgr. 40/42 APCR shell loses at 1000 meters with only 199mm of penetrating power (Also remember that we're only talking about the raw armor of the IS-3 aka the 200mm, NOT INCLUDING THE INCREASE IN ARMOR BECAUSE OF THE ANGLE AND THE CHANCES OF BOUNCES). And you still haven't given me a proper reason on why the Panther is an MBT. It is classified as a Medium tank. Also! The intial design for the Panther called for stats within 30 tonnes (aka the tank's transmissions and drive sprockets are made for a 30 ton tank) but due to it being up armored in later varients and the design produce was heavier. More stress was given to the transmission. The weight of the Panther is now 45 Tonnes (production). There were also incidents of the engine not being powerful enough to carry the entire weight of the Panther.
The Panther is only superior to a 1v1 against a T-34/85 due to its superior gun range but looking at reality there were more T-34/85s than Panthers.
Its like asking if the T-14 Armata was better than the M1A1, and M1A2 Abrams. On a 1v1 its overall superior BUT looking at reality the M1A1 and M1A2 would swarm the T-14 Armatas
You people only look at the stats ON PAPER without looking on what the Panther's run was in reality. Plus the Tiger I was overall more reliable than the Panther due to having a much longer development time but the tiger I still had many problems during its service life.
Also the IS-2M doesn't exist, it can only be found in the game called World of Tanks which I am guessing you got all your date from. This is the REAL WORLD not a video game. World of tanks isn't even a realistic game (played it before) and the IS-2M is literally a copy paste of the IS-4M that actually existed.
Next time please do your own research before replying :)))))
A wonderful collection Uncle! I really like your build skills, which are always completed with an eye to aesthetics, and detail. I particularly like that you do not over-weather your models. They always look authentic, and the weathering always suits the subject. I only started modelling about a year ago, and at 68 years old I was the definition of a ‘newbie’. However, there is a lot of information on RUclips for someone like myself to assist in the learning process.
I like your channel the best however as I have learnt quite a lot watching you build your models, and having applied some of your techniques to my own models, I can honestly say I am improving slowly.
Keep the videos coming Uncle, they are a highlight of my weekends (we get them on Saturday here). Cheers from Australia!
Love this video Martin! I'm glad I'm not the only guy that has a bunch of unpainted models waiting for inspiration. You are that! I am trying many of your techniques. Thanks
I love that intro and since your first video that I trying to gain courage to ask you for the flourescent lamp sound clip. I love that sound. :))))
I'm serious!
It's one of the royalty free neon sound effects which you can find on RUclips. However I've cut and rearranged it to match the glow of the sign.
@@NightShiftScaleModels In the Audio Library? :o
Can't find it :p
Besides your obvious talent, I very much enjoy the sound of your voice and your wit. You are a sterling addition to the modelling community, and I look forward to every one of your videos.
Thank you so much!
Your D9R introduced 13 year old me to your models, when I bought an issue of "Military Modelcraft International" on a trip to London in 2014. I've been in awe of the build ever since! (It's actually my favourite rendition of it).
You've done so many great models!
This community is lucky too have you man. Thank you for making these videos. Thank you for sharing your hard work and experience with all of us. They have helped me a lot. Just wanted to say that.
Awesome collection, those heavily modified tanks are definitely my favorites. I'd love to see you do a scifi tank from something like 40k with your wonderful skills at realism in play.
That O-I Superheavy looks amazing. Might have to try my (inexperienced) hand at it after I finish my Modelcollect P. 1000. Your videos have helped me immensely in building
Wow, so amazing!! So fun to see all of your work here! So inspiring too. Been wanting to get into modeling since I started watching your videos and this was a great showcase
All of them! Your sooo amazing dude. I hope I can get to the level your at!
Started watching your videos a couple months ago, been laid off for going on six months now, and between that and watching your videos i decided to take up model making again. Feels great, I suck almighty ass, but your videos always inspire me and they are awesome, keep them rolling cause lord knows i need all the tips and tricks i can take.
I love coming back again and again to watch this video, it's just so cool to see everything you've made. I hope you make another at some point!
Keep up the outstanding work/model building.
Thank you
The detail is INSANE on snow, leafs, dirt, or any kind of material on the tank. i love it man
Btw: concerning your model building & especially your weathering and chipping techniques, I personally think that you are one of the best model builders ever being out there * thumbs up!!! * Keep going like that!
Seeing your muddy T34 reminded me: After watching your series on weld beads and other armor textures, I made my own scratch-built turret for a random Warhammer tank [complete with Leman russ demolisher cannon in a tilting mount using a toothpick for the elevation axle] It looks alot like the turret on that one. I made it from plasticard and a skin of apoxie sculpt, complete with Night Shift style weld beads and armor mottling.
It still doesn't have a chassis to mount it, but your vids inspired me to build it regardless. I might actually build an Atlantic wall style pillbox for it, a static defense cannon. I just used 2 mini bases as the template for sizing: a 42mm round base for the front, that I flattened out for the gun mantlet, and a 25mm round for the back, with flat vertical sides also about 25mm tall.
Man, I lived the intro
Really nice work Martin. I enjoy your videos and recently worked on an Air Speeder for a game and am really happy with the results. I tried some of your techniques to create battle damage on it, which has been the first time I have every done this. I applied space damage sparingly like you said, "Less is more." Thank you for the videos.
Dear Martin, I love the old intro! The overview of your collection was amazing and very inspirational! Keep safe & well. Kind Regards Johnny
Thank you for showing the progress that you have made over the years! I will miss the intro, but if it's the way that is best for you I'll still come to learn from your videos
Wow!!! Thank you so much!!! I'm an artist and these models have etheric art aspect to them. I can feel the essence you put into the construction of them. They have no context, ie diorama, and, as such, sit very nicely in the skin you gave them. You sound critical of your work because you want to please the general populace. Please don't ever talk your creations down. They're awesome!!! They stand alone in your truth and integrity. You did them proud. Much respect bro. 🙏🤎🌹 Always remember, what people think of you is none of your business. Be true to your vision. Sit with that. Love, Light and Blessings from New Zealand bro
This is the type of video that you can watch over and over again.
Haha glad you're keeping the intro for the chill Friday vibes. I love your Yugoslavian conveyor belt stand off armor. I know you showed us the rubber you used during your workbench tour, but it would still be awesome to see how you attached it and achieved those realistic worn paint effects. Looking forward to your return after a much deserved week off!! It's been quite a stretch of weekly content now and I honestly don't know how you do it all unless you've trained your doggos to help with the video editing and track assembly 😂😜
nice channel! as soon as i want to build a model i check some of your videos to get the push i need to begin!
I as well will miss the intro, I will miss next Friday, but will look forward to the Friday after that. Me and my friend call each other after seeing your videos and discuss the details. We look forward to trying your techniques. I may have to try several times, I'm not that good. Lol.
just found you channel today and pretty much spent the whole day watching your videos. keep up the good work!!
The welding bead on the Gun carriage blew me away, as a welder and a novice modeler, that's insane. Great work
Beautiful Tracks! Thank you for sharing your models.
I like the intro, it gives me the feeling of "Night Shift is about to make a rad model"
Simply amazing display of modeling skills. Thanks!
Lately i've been looking trough some of my scale modelling magazines and I've found this whippet. I realised it's yours because of wilder aqua line bottles on some photos
Darn, I kind of like the opening it was unique.
A great laid back video. Enjoyed it thoroughly.
I can watch this all day long. Thank you!👍🏻🙏🏻😍😍
Duuuude! Not the intro! Gonna miss it....once again, a great video, a pleasure to watch you! Cheers!
Awesome collection!🤩
I also have like 30 tanks mostly in 1/35 scale but also 1/72. At the moment I am building the Panzer III Ausführung M from Tankom/Blitz. Awesome model, I recommend it to every armor modeler 👌🏻
Your work is amazing, and it's a real treat to watch your magic. Thank you sir.
Enjoy the videos and tutorials. The intro is kinda nostalgic for me. I'm old enough to remember neon lights. Look forward to the next build. Be Good Stay Safe
I kept seeing models and saying "This is my favorite!"... Every time! 👏👏👏👏👏
Wow Martin thank you for sharing your collection with us
Great artist!!!!
Fascinantes carros de guerra. Os tanques são quase imbatíveis. Valeu a postagem cara!
21:40 >>> for someone who kept a very close eye on the Syrian conflict, you really have captured the look of a t-72 straight out of Eastern Ghouta ! seriously, such a beautiful job, well thats if "beautiful" is the right word to describe the extra efforts that went into trying to keep the crews alive, cause at this time of the war, the SAA were suffering greatly ... a cool addition to the build would have been a scratch built Sarab-2 :)
There’s a lot of inspiration here! Thanks for sharing, my friend
The 3" Gun Carrier doesn't get much love. Has to be a first. Kudos!
your Syrian T72 actually inspired me to begin my first serious kit conversion in 72nd scale so thank you!
And I was wondering how the heck you managed to make rebars on it?
This was cool to see. Thanks.
The imagination im seeing here! LOVE IT. Every model I do has massive weathering and/or damage. Gone are the days of me thinking everything needed to be show room condition. My favorite is my 1/35 Early production Tiger Diorama using a bombed out town, sunken tracks in mud, german Infantry. Super fun build. Currently Working on a 1/48 HE-111H6 with ground grew re-arming and repairing battle dmg.
Cool stuff! Interesting to hear your opinions and see the kits :)
You are an awesome guy. Love your material. Much appreciated. I like the into!
Awesome stuff. I really like the idea of a Pacific T-95 tank and would love to see the Object 279 finish in some other video in the future.
I, for one, am thrilled you make videos. Any model you build is fine with me.
never skipped your intro, like that you had the intro, was a nice personal touch.
Thanks for sharing your kits . I really like the Maus and the JS3 . I still would like to see a ww2 Soviet cast turret tank..but it's better to build what you want . I think most of us have slaved away on kits we weren't happy with but for some strange reason, finished anyway. I just started back up after not modeling for years and am re- again- learning things I forgot. An idea.. you might consider.. even as an extra feature... Take an inexpensive kit like a Zvezda Uralmesh T-34 and do a step by step build so we can follow you and build with you at home. Maybe just out of the box..for fun and we can learn from your experience.
17:41- 11. číslo časopisu Modelář z r.2015. Parádny model, doteraz žasnem 😁👌
I'd love to see you paint a wrecked model, maybe a diorama. Your stuff inspires me to always get better and try new techniques!
Yes, Soviet tanks from Iraq during Desert Storm would be great. The battle of 73 Easting or the Highway of Death are great sources for this, as is the current debacle in Ukraine. Or, he could do WW2 to Modern T-34/85s in pretty much any conflict they were involved in, as destroyed and burned out is kind of their natural state! LOL
The way you owned that micro phone I was expecting a song , however luv'd seeing your collection and gives me lots of inspiration for my builds , would like to know more about your tech..
You're kits look absolutely Awesome man!
Can't wait for your videos every Friday, always hyped when notification shows😅
BTW maybe new build idea, try to make car model into apocalypse vehicle, like fence on windows machine guns, widebody kits ...maybe good would be Mercedes G wagon or some vans or something like that, even Subaru would be cool😇
Love this video and your channel. Especially the intro!!!! I’m left with some questions......
1. What’s you favourite model manufacturer and why?
2. What’s your process when you start a new project? How do you plan the for the affect you want to achieve?
3. What’s your favourite real life tank?
4. Do you have a favourite era?
5. What does your kit stash look like!!!!
Oh man this rubber boi looks so interesting. I would love to see more of that in the future, the rubber looks orgasmicly good looking and realistic
I love the intro. Glad you kept it.
Nice collection! I always have had trouble with my models being, literally; dust magnets. Especially dioramas. Just have never found a good way to clean them. Enjoyed the video.
Buy a case from ikea
We love the intro! please do not remove the intro Martin, it's like walking to a calm bar at night after a long day at work when I get home and start watching your videos, and for me my favorite from all always your MAUS !!! thanks for making this videos.
I like them all really, but that tractor/excavator caught my eye. It looks great, but it is so different from what i've seen you model. A nice change of pace!
Ooh I liked the intro, understated and cool anyway I have faith you will make something better, you always do.
Great video my friend some exceptional work there 👍👍
Hey I remember seeing your T-62 on the Abrams Squad magazine! Nice work !
What? I love the intro! It’s really something I enjoy in each video. It really helps it flow!
Nice channel.
Nice models, thanks for the tour!
Oh boy!!! That first model! Massive! :)
just realised your Maus made it to the front cover of the Paper Panzers book by AK! nice work!
seriously consider leaving that quick intro in
I like the maus tank the most. Also, will you make a tutorial on painting and weather the interior of tanks (such as crew compartments, engines)?
Okay, intro defending club, rally up! That neon intro is absolutely perfect and we want it! And by "we" i mean "I" want it!!!
Also, that Churchill GC is 140% dope, very interesting rendition of this dumb vehicle! Other projects are bad-ass by default, but GC... it needs real love to do something so great! :)
Martin!!! Im really going to miss your intro and your “old” vídeos sense of humour but hey!!! I really learn a lot of things from you and i might not be a patreon but im a groupie of your channel!!! Thanks!!!!!
Nice done. These submarines looks especially great, as these are in very small scale. But all that tanks and the rest... masterpieces! All the best for You! ;)
Your "trash" models are better than all my models put together. Thanks for all the inspiration. I will definitely put more time and courage into my building and paint/ weathering. Well done.
Thanks for the good weekend wishes Martin. Another great video.
Nice to see the Maus. I realize I wrote to you on M.L as an reply, when you did it and you had nearly finished the build and I said....wrote it would be a shame to paint it because it looked so wonderful with the correction you made on it 👌🏻
Apart from your chanel be one of the best, the intro is a real point of difference, change is good but this don't need changing!👍
Cool to see a proper CAT D9 model. I was operating one of these beasts during my service at IDF.
Consider build a Merkava type tank model, they look pretty cool.
