Well, I personally prefer to apply washes after oil dots, because sometimes when you blend dots oil paint might cover washes. Quite difficult to clean it up from all gaps and etc. And the funny thing - despite of the lacquer (surface) type, I wait for about 10-15 minutes for thinner to evaporate, and then goes another layer of effects. What's the secret? Apply varnish :D Surprisingly, it doesn't affect previous layer of oil or enamel if the varnish is acrylic. Well at least it works for me))
All of your videos are the BEST. Well videoed, lighted, explained, etc. Thank you soooooo much. I am in very poor health and modeling helps me relax. I am building models to pass on as part of the art that I do.
I have to say, as a long, long time miniature-wargamer/painter who's recently started applying modelling techniques to my painting (oils, enamels, filters etc.) your channel is fast becoming my favourote source for inspiration and tips! Keep up the good work and can't wait for the next video!
I do not know if someone has already said it sir, but its channel has become one of the best (If not, the best) modeling channels here in you tube. And I assure you that I do not like to praise in a simplistic way. Congratulations! I wish to reach soon the 300 thousand subscribers or more, which is the number of subscribers that has another fantastic modeling channel here.
Friiiiiiiday... and with a new exciting Night Shift video.... Best day of the week of course 😍😍😍. Thank you so much for this very inspiring tutorial. You are my hero !!!
Well, that has to be the first time I have actually seen anyone do the dot technique that I could actually understand, and follow. So, I suppose I need to dig out the oils, and see if I can actually duplicate the results.... although I will be working on a hulk at first. This definitely is a great channel, and I am learning a lot.... definitely love the weld seams and texture. Thank you for sharing...
I recently discovered your channel and can't get enough of your videos! So many interesting techniques. Are you going to setup a Patreon account? I'd definitely support!
Wow looks like from the photo. Great video as always. My friend started to watch your videos too. Btw my broken Fw-190 canopy glass is back in game! I contacted eduard support if they could send me another clear pieces. They said yes and they sent them. Now I can continue :D yay. If is anybody reading this from eduard I have to say THANK YOU to you!
Martin, my dude, every single technique you do is astounding! I also really appreciate that you explain every step. I now know why my dot fading has never worked well (I flood the surface with thinner) =P
Andrew Schnack thank you for pointing that out, man i had the same problem but don't abandon the technique when you apply too much thinner with the oil dots it makes for great streaks and similar effects i love the filter washes but the dot filter technique is more direct
Martin. Thanks buddy, bloody clever. Although I was with both aircraft and armour I am getting back into modelling aircraft after a few decades and your techniques and skills are inspired chap. Don't worry about the English. My Russian sucks and most of us can't speak English properly either😁
Once again awesome video. I just got the remaining oil colours and can’t wait to start blending. I’m glad I have seen this because I would have done them one at at time...
OMG... thank you, thank you so much, there is so many video, guide talk about using oil dot paint.... but i never found anyone talk about how each color will influence or change the tone of base coat
Love your Channel man! Your voice and accent are perfekt and easy to the ear' you should dö podcasts 😁 Your toutorials are exelent and you tecniqes amacing. Thank you for a wonderfully proffesional channel.
Thanks for the tutorial :) i am in the procces of washing Tamiya tiger I early, and while there is not much to wash on lower deck, the wheels are quite time consuming (overall 36 wheels :).
Hello! Happy New Year to you!!! Thank you for all this amazing content 🙂 Please, as we are using enamel thinner, is it possible to use enamel paints (e.g. Humbrol) instead of oil paints? Thank you very much
Martin, as many others have said, I think your videos are excellent and so helpful. I have a question for you. It looks like you sometimes apply acrylic paint techniques over oil washes and filters. Have you ever found this to be a problem? Do you use clear coats between the layers? I feel like I remember way back hearing that you can't put acrylics over oils. Thanks again for your wonderful videos
Great video as always. I just did a pin wash on a model that was coated in Vallejo satin varnish and I get tide marks... I don't see that happening in this video and you mention you used a semi gloss coat. What could be my problem? Thanx in advance.
That's very interesting. I often had tide marks on matt surfaces, but never on a glossy or satin one. I honestly can't say what went wrong, but you can eliminate most of them by gently tapping the entire model with a large brush and small amount of thinner. Give the washes enough time to dry so you don't remove them. And also, there are many weathering techniques that can hide any remaining tide marks, like rust tones, dust, etc
@@NightShiftScaleModelsThank for the advice... I also noticed that my base coat.... Done using Tamiya Olive Green... Was a bit rough and sandy... Something I have noticed before on my models. I'm now thinking that was the initial issue and that the varnish was not sufficient to form a nice coat and take away the rough edges... I'll try some different combinations on plastic spoons to test...you also use Tamiya with lacquer Thinner... I'm going to give that a try to. Thanx and ill be looking forward to you next video 😀
Exciting!!! Like fine wine - getting better with age. Thanks for answering on your forum - much appreciated. If you were doing a three tone German camo late war what paint would you mix in to distress the base colour of Late War German Yellow - I'm using Mission Paints (similar to Tamiya's dark yellow...sort of). And for Red camo? Green camo? Would you distress an open fighting compartment like a Hummel or Nashorn? I'm thinking not however might be an interesting look. Thanks, Tim
That's a pretty interesting question. As for fighting compartments, I would probably add lots of distressing to the lower parts like the floors and lower half of the walls and keep it more "cleaner" towards the top. For distressing German yellow I'd just add white or light grey. Green and brown, hmm... adding German yellow could work, it would make them look more faded and would also work as a textured filter - it would slightly merge those 3 paints together.
Great video as usual! I only discovered your channel recently, but I've been watching a lot of your videos as the techniques you use are really good and I want to try them out for warhammer vehicles and possibly infantry.
When it comes to varnish, I paint the base coat and camo, then gloss to apply water markings so they don't silver and to make pin washing faster, and then apply a matt coat to eliminate the gloss.
Nice techniques sir👍I'd like to do the oil dots blending technique on my gray painted tank, any advice for what colours of oil paint would look good for the dots blending on a gray tank?
hey Night Shift! Really cool material as always! But I do have a question. Could you please tell me if is it possible that after base colour, when I protected it by leyer of Vallejo gloss varnish and painted it enamel washes tneh they did not dry in 24 hours?
Brother, this is exactly why I think your next project should be a fantasy model - a robot of some kind (I think W.H.40K or Robotech) - it's because people who build, compete and judge these things need to see YOUR take on interpreting things like maintenance and environmental effects, how and what to add to a model, not to mention WHEN to leave the instruction's script in favor of your own, and especially, how to get the most realistic effects by not limiting yourself to just acrylics and a sharpie. (Whenever I see a kid on RUclips color something in with a red sharpie, one of my sea monkies climbs out of his included underwater environment and throws itself into the 'money' candle I vigilantly keep burning next to the roller coaster section of the 9 piece ocean zoo. We have to stop the madness!) So you see, it's not just for me, it's for the monkies.
Wow this was nearly a year ago, Do you Thin the oils down at all? They look quite thin when you apply the dots to the model, do you allow them to dry on the model before you start to blend them?
Hi, I painted a model with Vallejo spray paint. I’m using oil paint and mineral spirits for this and realized the spirits is also stripping the base coat. Haha... is this the reason for a clear coat??!! I thought Vallejo spray paint was an acrylic?
Well, they make specific tones we, armor modellers use, i.e. rust, mud, dust etc. When I was using regular oils I always had to mix them to get those tones and it was often tricky. These modelling oils also contain less linseed oil so they're not as messy and are easier to work with.
Hey, night. What oil colours would you generally use for olive drab base colours? I plan to do a Pershing (m26 by Tamiya). I avoided doing the filters on my Sherman as i didn't want to mess it up because i did a good preshading with it (i was experimenting)
Man everytime I see one of your videos it makes me want to get back to modelling! I really want to try those techniques on miniatures, especially the oil blending, the textures are really awesome! But something's always bothering me, they say to never put acrylic over oils, but I saw in some of your videos that you go back to acrylics for details after using oil washes and blending, without a varnish. Is it because the amount of oil paint you use is so low that it doesn't create problems? Or is it an overblown problem? Anyways, thanks for the videos, really enjoying them!
I guess it's like you said, their amount is very small. Might be also a bit overblown issue. Modellers have been doing it like this since I can remember (aka roughly since 2005) and there were never any issues reported in the modelling community. And hey, thanks a lot! I hope you'll give it a try and return to this hobby!
Hello night shift I am quite new to this I am right now 3d printing a LT 35, i want to make it look nice It has to be sandet a lot, What is the most important thing you recommend me to buy. Greetings my friend Btw. Can you link everything you use in the vids, would be quite usefull Edit: Thanks a lot btw. (How rude of me)
eternalASV120 well then I am actually using sandpaper to get rid of the lines (the lines are almost not visible) Now i have the good ol ender 3 It is a FDM 3d printer If you want it for printing models buy a SLA or SLS (if you have enough money) I bought my printer in mind if printing for customers and for my electronics projects I loved these small things when i was young, so i thought why not get into this hobby
@@NightShiftScaleModels thats cool because the LT35 had bolts (these bolts are on the actuall model that i printed) If you see a nice modell on thingiverse and you want it printed you can ask me
I've just bought some Mig wash and tried to use it but when I removed the wash with enamel thinner the paint also came off. Do you know what I'm doing wrong? I'm using Tamiya Acrylic paints with no varnishes and Revell Colour Mix.
Thank you! It’s a nice video. I did a pin wash over a satin varnish to my Tiger I. However, the varnish seems to peel and flake off when I’m removing the excess of the wash. I’ve already tried to be gentle to avoid accidentally rubbing off the varnish but it still comes off after a few stroke. How could I fix it?
Also, I have a problem with the pin wash. I use Winsor and Newton Winton oil paint with Daler and Rowney low odour thinner, applied to recesses, the pigments won't stay in place but flow away leaving traces of thinner in the recesses. The pigments are very visible. I mean GRAINS BY GRAINS. Is this also due to the bad satin varnish from Vallejo or the wash being too dilute?
@@arthurchang5940 hmm that sounds like a bad oil paint to me... but W&N are overall pretty good quality paints. Maybe it's way too diluted, or the paint itself is old and started to deteriorate... if you're struggling with mixing your own washes, I'd recommend buying at least one pre-mixed enamel wash to see how it's supposed to work, how thick should it be etc...
First of all thank you for your wonderful video! I m a beginner and your videos are very helpful However i still do not enderstand why my enamel black wash is absorb and diffused when I apply it on a mat green color with a layer of semi gloss varnish. ( I use tamiya colors and varnish) If any one coult help me it will be nice :) Merci
It depends a lot on your desired result. If you want it to be more off-white, then a combination of light grey and some tan/dust or very small amount of yellow. If you want a more clean look, light greys and small amount of light blue. Also, using pure white is problematic. I'd always recommend using very light grey, so you can always use pure white later.
Martin. Really detailed and well done, excellent .thank you Please do a Soviet KV2 or JSU 152, or ISU 2 Rough Soviet armor , really enjoyed your video !!
These are modelling specific oils, but regular can be used too. However they contain lots of linseed oil, which has to be drained prior to using them. You can squeeze them out on a piece of cardboard and let it absorb the oil
Did you notice something weird?
I usually apply washes first, then add oil dots. OOPS!
JK, it doesn't really matter.
good to know , i got myself a chi-nu and will use your tips and tricks!
cant be breaking the rules lol
Well, I personally prefer to apply washes after oil dots, because sometimes when you blend dots oil paint might cover washes. Quite difficult to clean it up from all gaps and etc. And the funny thing - despite of the lacquer (surface) type, I wait for about 10-15 minutes for thinner to evaporate, and then goes another layer of effects.

Nice Martin. It's looking good so far.
Thanks Scott. Great job with that new video of yours.
Night Shift thanks so much bud!!
Sir, how do you clean the brush after using the texture effect process, the putty and cement residues? What and how to clean?
He told me in the comments that he uses cement so clean the brushes. Works surprisingly well.
@@krautreport202 Yep, this. I've just finished some Shermans up and used the same cement for the technique to clean the brush. Works great 👍

Help, I am trapped in a wash applying/removin loop for 3 months now! D:
Excellent tutorial! Always make me laugh 🤣
Again a very good video! Btw, i grabbed a beer instead of some thinner. Tastes better i think 😋.
In the past, I've had issues with tide marks left over from the washes. What can I do to help prevent those tide marks?
I'd love to try this technique but the Wilder weathering oils seem pretty hard to get a hold of- is there an easier to find alternative?
Wow this was nearly a year ago, Do you Thin the oils down at all? They look quite thin when you apply the dots to the model, do you allow them to dry on the model before you start to blend them?

Please please please add the other oil paint tip! Loving all these videos
Where do I buy wilder oils because I can’t seem to find the website.
From your point of view, is there any difference between Wilder or Abteilung brands in comparison with ordinary decent oil paints?
Well, they make specific tones we, armor modellers use, i.e. rust, mud, dust etc. When I was using regular oils I always had to mix them to get those tones and it was often tricky. These modelling oils also contain less linseed oil so they're not as messy and are easier to work with.

Hello night shift
I am quite new to this
I am right now 3d printing a LT 35, i want to make it look nice
It has to be sandet a lot,
What is the most important thing you recommend me to buy.
Greetings my friend
Btw. Can you link everything you use in the vids, would be quite usefull
Edit: Thanks a lot btw. (How rude of me)
Sounds like a cool project. What kind of printer are you using?
Guess the most important thing will be tons of putty to get rid of printer lines))
eternalASV120 well then
I am actually using sandpaper to get rid of the lines (the lines are almost not visible)
Now i have the good ol ender 3
It is a FDM 3d printer
If you want it for printing models buy a SLA or SLS (if you have enough money)
I bought my printer in mind if printing for customers and for my electronics projects
I loved these small things when i was young, so i thought why not get into this hobby
I don't have any experience with 3D printing, but from what I've seen on RUclips, using spray primer/filler can eliminate most of those printer lines
@@NightShiftScaleModels thats cool because the LT35 had bolts (these bolts are on the actuall model that i printed)

I've just bought some Mig wash and tried to use it but when I removed the wash with enamel thinner the paint also came off. Do you know what I'm doing wrong?
I'm using Tamiya Acrylic paints with no varnishes and Revell Colour Mix.
Not sure if I missed it but a direct before and after at the end of the video would be awesome just to see the effect in action
Thanks for the advice! I'll start doing that whenever possible!
Bro you read my mind? I had some questions about blending oils. I was just about to do random stuff with them
Thank you! It’s a nice video. I did a pin wash over a satin varnish to my Tiger I. However, the varnish seems to peel and flake off when I’m removing the excess of the wash. I’ve already tried to be gentle to avoid accidentally rubbing off the varnish but it still comes off after a few stroke. How could I fix it?
Ouch, is it a Vallejo varnish? 😕 I’d recommend Tamiya or some other lacquer based varnish, they’re very strong
@@NightShiftScaleModels Oh shoot yes it's Vallejo... is it ok to apply a Tamiya semi-gloss over Vallejo acrylic?

I use Winsor and Newton Winton oil paint with Daler and Rowney low odour thinner, applied to recesses, the pigments won't stay in place but flow away leaving traces of thinner in the recesses.

Are every tipes of oil paint good for oil dots?
Thanks martin !!!!😃😃😃😃
Would you panel wash on zimmerate?
sir, a question on oil dots... what if I have a white painted part? what combination of oil colors should be used? thanks in advance
It depends a lot on your desired result. If you want it to be more off-white, then a combination of light grey and some tan/dust or very small amount of yellow. If you want a more clean look, light greys and small amount of light blue.
Also, using pure white is problematic. I'd always recommend using very light grey, so you can always use pure white later.

Hmmm, maybe
@@NightShiftScaleModels will be cool and in this year is 75 anniversary of Warsaw uprising.

I'm watching the video well. Do you want to make images using lacquer series or enamel paint? I think you are mainly using acrylic series ^^
I mainly use lacquer paints for airbrushing because they're easy to work with and are durable when oil and enamel paints are laid on top of them :)

The oil paints are just your classical good ol' paints used in school art class or are they special for this?
These are modelling specific oils, but regular can be used too. However they contain lots of linseed oil, which has to be drained prior to using them. You can squeeze them out on a piece of cardboard and let it absorb the oil
What would you consider the best black panelliner?
I haven't used any, but I guess the Tamiya Paneliners are pretty popular.
