    Dear Mr Panzer,the little brackets on the bottom of the bays(bottom of car you called hatches) are to mount a vibrating tool. It makes the contents of car,corn,oats ect. fall out of hatches when they get stuck,whether from wetness or freezing,ect. the cars are lined with a special coating and cannot be scratched.in the old days they would beat on the car with (BFHs)BIG HAMMERS. The stencil above bracket tells you info about this. Also there are stencils on cars telling what kind of shoe sole to wear inside car. The roof hatches on top of car are almost all made of fiberglass so they dont rust,and the latches and hinges on them are made of stainless or galvanized metal,so they "white rust" The running boards now days are made of galvanized metal. I worked on a RIP track for a long time.(RIP= Repair In Place) (or Cripple Track) Great job on your weathering and models, I watch them all!

    Very cool procedure! Such train cars are ideal for heavy weathering effects, since these things literally sit in the open for years and see heavy use, unlike tanks, which do not really last long enough to show such extreme weathering effects.

      Me too, I do understand. So but my solution is to just collect freight cars, in sales mostly, weather them up and place them into little dioramas that can go on shelves or into bookcases. Many hours of fun can be had for little money. Its maybe not for everyone, but it scratches my itch..

      I actually did a Tangent SOO hopper for a client a few months ago, but I didn't film it. I have some photos though. Next hoppers I have are grey trinitys, so the weathering techniques are the same as they would be on a grey or beige 4750.

    • @Panzermeister36
      @Panzermeister36  Год назад +1

      Luckily RUclips helps me keep track of new comments on old videos!
      The wheel tread is essentially half-masked as you said, and that is purely a result of the angle I spray paint on them. First I spray the wheel face directly face-on, so no paint gets on the tread. Then, I spray the rear face and axle. I do this at about a 60° angle so the lip of the wheel will mask about half of the tread closest to it. The other outer half is not blanketed from the spray angle so it gets painted.
      (I actually paint the rear face and axle by sticking the bearing end of the axle straight down into my paper towel I use to catch overspray, and then I hold the other bearing end in the tip of my left index finger -- almost like I'm balancing a top. Then I spray downwards and spin the axle with my left thumb. This spins the wheel so I get all of the rear face and axle, and the angle is about the 60 degrees I explained. I have to then flip the wheel around and do the same for the other rear face of the opposite wheel).
      It's kind of a happy accident sort of thing I figured out. Hopefully my explanation makes sense!

    I also hope you are considering to pick up the big Das Werk Stug III which should be available in about 2 or 3 months time. You are the first person I thought about when I heard about it. I know you are a massive Stug III fan and can only imagine what you would make out of that kit :-)

    • @Panzermeister36
      @Panzermeister36  3 года назад +1

      Nope, I use Tamiya paints which are very durable. These are alcohol-based acrylics and they are as strong as the dullcote itself. So with Tamiya there is no need to seal it down.
      Now, if you're using water-based acrylic paints like Vallejo or Mig Ammo or anything similar, then you should seal them with a varnish like dullcote.

      I did not choose it, it was given to me. I had a Paasche airbrush before but I like the 105 much better. It's super reliable and I can get some excellent camouflage out of it.
      As for a compressor, well I still have a super basic one. Would recommend getting a proper one.

    • @Panzermeister36
      @Panzermeister36  3 года назад

      Honestly, probably not. Vallejo airbrushes very poorly compared to others on the market and I would struggle to get good results (I'm not the most skilled airbrusher and I've built up a lot of experience with Tamiya). I'm not interested in making a video on something that would be awkward and not enjoyable to me.
      Now I very well might try using acrylic washes more in the future rather than oils/enamel washes if that's more what you're thinking about.
      If Vallejo/Ammo are the acrylics you like to use, you should be able to use them the same way I used Tamiya acrylics in my videos. You can find colour conversion charts online to find equivalent colours to what I use.

      If the dullcote was applied before the oils, then that will be the issue. You can't blend the oils over such a matte/rough finish. I only applied a matte varnish at the end of the weathering process in the video for this reason. I'm sorry for not making that clear in the video.

    When are you picking your tau army and give them this treatment! There are a lot of people that see you and Night Swift videos because they of weathering technics...

      My Tau army was painted long ago when I was in high school, but I did buy some more Warhammer recently to weather in videos ;) some time this year I'll make a video.
