@@wickerman7689 Like fidinboca... I'm on TWO now but both were amicable partings and we civily split stuff up, And all of my hobby stuff was mine before I married them so... no worries there! And I'm actually still Friends with both. The Second one we share Grand Kids, and we just... moved apart. We are actually BETTER "FRIENDS" now then when we were together! So it's all good. I lucked out that way! :D And my Second "Ex" knows and is friends with my current girlfriend... so that's good too, :D
The Fehrmann Tanks were real Frankenstein Tanks. I really love the miss match, chaotic energy you captured with your paintjob. You made an extremly characterfull model here. ❤
I actually really dig this paint scheme, it tells a story. Like, this isn't a spanking new machine, it's later in the war and the vehicle has seen combat and been pieced together with whatever was at hand. It's going to be a really interesting piece when it's done, looking forward to seeing the upcoming steps!
I have no words in english to say what I think, but in spanish we say... IMPRESIONANTE!! I´m waiting for the next video like a child. Marvelous work Martin!
I think, the fact that you are basing so much of the way you paint this Tiger on the thoughts about its (potential) history and the things that it has been through, gives it a lot of character, and that alone makes it exceptionally beautiful. I'm looking forward to see what else will come :)
I really enjoy watching your videos with my 14 year old son. He actually puts down the video games to watch. He is a little disappointed that his models don't look as good as yours. I tell him you have had more practice, and his will get better with practice as well.
There is something wrong with 5 people who gave dislike to this video. What is wrong with them? Severe case of envy, of course. Martin, my friend, this Tiger looks incredible, can't wait for the chipping part. Enjoy the painting and stay safe.
Since 2006 i own a Computer and watched a lot of modelling tutorials, i repeat i watched a lot....but Martin youre the best tutorial maker ever, youre steps looks so easy to copy and i already did it to my MENG Jagdpanther with a great result, thank you for teach us, help us and make our hobby more fascinated. In my eyes youre the best and i hope you will never stop to make another video. Also greetings to the speaker, youre so funny, i like your accent, so you both are really great. Greets from Germany
An odd looking kitty. Captured perfectly. I’m enjoying this series very much. Thanks yet again for your marvellous work. As always G’day from Australia mate.
A really big thank you for yet another great tutorial. During these troubled times, your episodes and comments are very comforting. Thank you and keep safe. Tony
The highlight of each week when the Night Shift video is available. I learn something each week which has improved my armor builds. Thanks for sharing your techniques.
The scheme looks great. I did a similar scheme on a Hummel (15mm scale) a few years ago. Based on same idea, grey vehicle over painted in yellow. Learning so much from watching. great work.
I'm doing my first model now. Keep it up, i love to be able to take advantage of all your experience, to make my models better. And your humor helps with keeping this whole hobby fun.
always like watching your video's, as a model railroader these techniques work well on weathering rolling stock. I really enjoy the commentary though...always good for a laugh or 2..keep them coming!
Wow! After last weeks episodes I was really (for the first time) a bit sceptical if you could 'save' it, but now it looks absolutely incredible! These filters and oilpaint really changed the look of this beast
Truly fantastic my friend You have a superior eye for catching this, subtle command of these colors.....I see where you are going with the Panzer Grey....and so subtle tonal changes in the armor yellow as well. Highlights and different fading , shading washes ...blended Really crazy good. Inspiring!!!! Thank you!!
Still with you brother. I like the way it's going too. It's *supposed* to look strange considering everything it's been through what with the (probably) poorly-applied and damaged zimmerit, field repainting and parts replacements probably from different donor tanks and factories at different times. It's amazing it even still looks like a Tiger instead of a chimera.
Hey there Uncle Night Shift, love your channel. I'm so glad I found it, you've made me a better modeler. You're doing the lord's work, keep it up, my friend.
I always apply a light wash on (or in) Zimmerit, make it looks like dust that have settled in those crevasses, as it certainly would. Keep on, can’t wait to see the final result!!! 😎
Its not an ugly Tiger. Right now it looks realistic and interesting. You can see what happend to the tank through all those years during the war. Uncle Night Shift you are telling the story with this tank. Keep up the good work.
I really appreciate you buddy. I’ve got a jag tiger coming in made by tacom and I’m going to follower these shows for it. It’s going to take forever yay 😁
I haven’t waited so intently for a video to come out since I was a little kid. Saw this video came out and I squealed like a little girl. What the hell is wrong with me.
Great video again, uncle Night Shift :) I must admit that you give me a lot of inspiration for my projects. It is great to see each and every single build step and then a finished model. I look forward to seeing the next video with your Fehrmann Tiger.
I think that, despite that odd paint scheme, it looks fantastic so far. I'm going to try that distressing technique on a Corsair that I'm building so thanks for your videos uncle Nightshift, they have been super helpful !!!
Excellent! I look forward to every episode of this one. I've got a late war Dragon brand Tiger I've had stashed away for awhile. Going to watch this build until it's over before I start on it. Very good techniques!
Thanks for the videos crazy Uncle Nightshift. I used some your techniques and advice to make a really nice Tamiya M-41 that my local IPMS club gave me a blue ribbon for.
Great work as usual, coincidentally, Tiger F13 has just appeared in the book I’m reading (An eclipse without a future - Ulrich Saft). Interesting to read a little more info on such an unusual tank.
Martin, I try to turn everyone on to VMS products - they work really well. They freak me out because it's weird, but I've been surprised everytime. Their photo etch CA glues are my mainstay, the decal solution is super hot and melts decals great. Clean slate remover was like magic. I haven't used everything, just what I have troubles with (photo etch). I think Uschi Vanderosten has a solution that is supposed to cut down on the dry time for oils, but I think it's just a medium that's available to artists called Liquin. I use Liquin for my oils.
Looks very good. And it is one of my favourite ways in modelling - making non standard vehicles, like less known versions or variants of famous tanks or planes, non typical things, and so on - exactly like in case of that Tiger. Good done! ;) All the best for You! Beware of coronavirus! ;)
YES! it's the ug-I mean AMAZING PANZER seriously though it really doesn't matter how bad the colors are when you paint and weather things they look goooooooooooooood. -faithful subscriber :)
That is a cute lil cat! For it is so cute, please stop calling him ugly o_o. Looks great, after next week I feel Ready to work on my captured king tiger a Little more. Stay healthy!
Once again, a great video. I just found that is pretty therapeutic for me in this times of worry looking at your videos. Many thanks uncle Night Shift?
Very cool to watch you and Evan going at Tigers simultaneously! 👍🏻 I think it looked awesome and authentic last week and even better today 😁 looking forward to your famous chipping and glad to hear there will be some effects to show the remnants of the lost zimmerit layer
I am probably wrong, since you tend to be very thorough with your research, but somehow I feel there should be more difference between yellow and green, and grey should be way less saturated because dust and sun tend to to do that. As an idea, you can make a black and white photo of your model and compare it to the original ones to determine if your colour saturation is on point.
damn and I was following up really well with this kit building a panther, and then everything went to hell with the tracks. Really love what you did though with those oils, it really is a cheat where, the more you work with them you just make it better
Wow. You've had a thumbs down! Probably from a jealous RUclipsr. Anyway, enough of that. Brilliant, as always. Thank you Uncle. Oh, by the way. I'm still not mastering your techniques from months, maybe, years ago. Grrrr.

Lots of subtle but highly effective work. Don't fret on the names of techniques, as you say it's all about results !! Thanks Uncle night shift.
Fridays are my favorite day of the week because my uncle nightshift uploads on Fridays ❤️
Martin, i dont know how can people can call that tiger ugly, i think it looks amazing, lot of personality and detail, love it.
A video on oil washes as soon as I'm ready to apply them to my Stug? Perfect timing as usual, Uncle Nightshift.

So horribly great it deserves a round of applause. Looking superb.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I love it, seems to be very realistic to this old modeler.
The more you say it’s ugly than the more you will screw up, stay positive and safe! Keep it up 👍
Wow, the weld beads really make the model. And the wash makes the weld beads. 😊

Loving the way this tiger is coming along!! Can't wait to see it finished.. 👌👌
As a model railroader, I really enjoy the weathering techniques you're showing... I'll have to give it a shot in 1/87th!!!
I'm glad you are still having fun. Outstanding oil paint demo. I love VMS stuff but I'm still waiting for the aha moment with the oil expert.
MARTIN!!! Beautiful. Just Beautiful. That is all. Keep up the amazing work.
I am a simple guy,
When I see a night shift video I hit like
Keep up the great work 💪🏻😁

You’re one of my favourite modellers, love your style of painting and weathering. Keep it coming Martin.
Once the oils start going over the zimmerit, the green and yellow difference really starts showing. Super nice!
Martin love the blend of the oils on the sides and with the zimmerit looks so perfect! another great viedeo, thanks!
