I love your channel and simple steps on how to paint easily with brush models. Plenty of pompous channels about modeling, but you keep it simple. *Good job* 👍
Thanks mate, yeah I hear you, or just using so many effects and airbrushing and everything, it's not a good thing to show people as it's to much for people starting out.Glad you enjoy the content though mate
Great video I just found your channel not long ago and I love that you use whats in the kit and I personally prefer handpainting my models, it feels more handmade of course! Keep up the good work :) loved the video.
Cheers mate thank you glad you enjoy the content I make, just like to keep things simple, there is a lot of expensive tutorials on youtube and just wanted to do the standard model marker stuff
I'm glad I wasn't the only one who used a little bit of glue on the turret allied star. This kit was fun to do but a little fiddly, I would do this kit again...
Yeah it's a ok way to do it but not great if you have the proper stuff,yeah I think I'd do the kit again,be nice to get a better end result, I think I've done at least 20 of these airfix armour kits now,and you can get a good result with a couple of dry brushes and washes on them
Midway through building mine, you are quite right about its suitability for beginners! Some parts are the Carpet Monster's dream, so far I have rescued those that decided to leap off the bench.
Yeah, just think I have seen much easier kits and some of the small bits are asking to be lost, glad youve managed to keep the carpet monster at bay, hows the build looking?
@@scalestuff1066 ...into the paint phase, but remembering not to paint the turret when it's on the chassis, a bit of a schoolboy error on a previous kit (OK it was my second kit after a 40 year lay-off)!
@@jasonmussett2129 Its a bugger if you see even real olive drab tanks next to each other the sun dirt and everything else does so many different things to them
@@TheFightingHaggis Glad to be of help, if you are after building up paint over a base to get a gradual effect, water the paint down more to the constancy of milk, it takes a while to build up coats but can give you a nice natural fade
Yeah the paints I've had a few like that, it's a shame but if brought new you can contact airfix and get more sent out.I found the tracks a little fiddly but I've built a lot of these kits now and think I'm just used to them now

Ah mate ive done the same a few times, half of the games habbit!
Very interesting video
Glad you enjoyed it
Good kit but fiddly. I used Tamiya dark green on mine👍
Agreed mate,and good choice I think I paint my UK tanks a bit more olive than I really should
@@scalestuff1066 you' re welcome. There's always some confusion over olive drab🤔
@@jasonmussett2129 Its a bugger if you see even real olive drab tanks next to each other the sun dirt and everything else does so many different things to them
@@scalestuff1066 oh yeah, humbrol 66 is darker than humbrol 155 whereas Tamiya XF62 is more post war. I could go on. Ah, the joys of modelling 🙂🙂
Yeah mean I have sat there with popcorn reading huge arguments over olive drab
How do you get the paint to stay even, mine always goes lumpy in some places and it always shows the brush stroke
Stir it, and add a little water to the brush and paint, I put a couple of drops next to the paint and kinda mix in as I paint
@@scalestuff1066 thanks, I tried it and it worked

For me the paints were dried up and the tracks just didn’t wanna go on
Yeah the paints I've had a few like that, it's a shame but if brought new you can contact airfix and get more sent out.I found the tracks a little fiddly but I've built a lot of these kits now and think I'm just used to them now
Do you wash your kits before you start?
Some times if I can feel release agent,this one I probably should have the adhesion of the paint was crap,but the paint was crap also
Oooo you colour master you
I did my best the paint in the kit was not all that but Im happy with how it turned out
Aldi are selling these right now cheap.
That they are, sad though as my local only had the plane kits in
