So enamel thinner over acrylic paint jobs and acrylic thinner over enamel paint jobs that have been gloss varnished? Then I’m assuming you can Matt varnish over the top when done?
Great tip, thanks. I like to use a wash on a matte or flat paint around filler caps or drain plugs to create stains as it would naturally, letting gravity and flow in the flat paint work for me.
Yes, when using washes to create stains or when applying a filter, those are best done over flat. Beyond the scope of this particular video, but a technique we'll cover in another installment. Thanks for watching and sharing your tips!
Great tutorial. When I was still building models I found what worked best for me were artist chalks. I never built any dioramas and my stuff wasn’t weathered very much. Exhaust stains, gunpowder stains and that’s about it. However, I can see why most modelers use washes on their models.
Pastels work wonderfully for certain effects, much the same way pigments can. We'll show how to use those in a future video. Thanks for watching and sharing your experience!
Great video! I got myself some Vallejo washes but they come in a tiny bottle with a dropper tip at the end of it. Should I apply a droplet of wash on the model and then rub it all around it or apply the wash on a pallet or smth and then brush it onto the model? Thanks!
No because he sprayed a gloss coat over the paint,you normally apply a wash on top of a gloss coat and after weathering spray a flat coat or whatever you prefer to seal everything in
It depends upon the paint. The best bet is to use the recommended thinner for the intended acrylic paint. Some acrylic paints you can thin with water, but you'll want to mix in a tiny amount of liquid hand or dish soap to break the water's surface tension so the wash flows more easily. And remember, before applying any new technique to your model, if you can, try it on a test model first.
I've read once that the colour black makes the best standard washing colour, while grey/dark grey does a better job with lighter colours typically found on military aircrafts such as light blue & white, while dark brown or burnt umber best works on base colours such as green, red, gold. Is that👆🏼 true? Could you please elaborate more on that? Thank you very much sensei🙏🏻

Another fantastic video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Extremely helpful video! I did my rc T-34/85 after watching this, and it really brought it to life. Thanks!
Great to see the Eagle Transporter in the shelf! 😄 I've got one by myself. Good childhood memories.
Excellent explanation and presentation.
Thanks you!
Thank you...great demonstration.
no acrylic washes?
5:07 i think it looked better without the wash. Very useful video nonetheless 👍!
Nice tutorial. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Great video and very informative
Glad you liked it!
Love that tank design. Its hreat for weathering effects. Helped that your an expert as well. Nice job
I have used crushed up Black watercolor as well. Just something else to use.
Thanks for the tip. We'll give that a try at the office.

That was really helpful - many thanks. Have you a view on what colour wash to apply on really dark surfaces, such navy blue or black? Thanks.
Thanks for the video. 👍

The effect of using a wash on flat surfaces (as opposed to glossy surface) is desirable in some cases.

Put it onto a palette and then apply it to your model with a brush.
Can you use enamel wash on lacquer base ? And oil on lacquer ? Great vid as usual !
Yes, you can put an enamel or oil wash over lacquer. However, do not put a lacquer over an enamel--it will eat through it.
Does the remover not remover the pain underneath too?
No because he sprayed a gloss coat over the paint,you normally apply a wash on top of a gloss coat and after weathering spray a flat coat or whatever you prefer to seal everything in
@@Swellington_thanks I'm new at this
Can I use something other than terpenoid ?
You could use mineral spirits if you're working with artist oil paints. If you're working with enamels, use enamel thinner.
@@FineScaleModelermagazine what about acrylic paints?

Where did you get the P51 modeling pad??? That is awesome! Great video on washes also.
Thanks! You can buy the cutting matt here: kalmbachhobbystore.com/product/modeling-tool/85159
