Those figures are so nice and natural. Extremely well sculpted. Nice work. I wish i can paint like that. Greetiy from Australia amateur modeller. I have lots of model 1/35 scale to build that I've had for a decade or so. Too much in model Aircraft interest taken over figures. Excellent eork. Yhey look great and the kubel Wagon. I have two of those one i buit many moons ago and one unbuilt with the Rommel figure. My favorites are the German Infantry snd most of all the Afrika korps.👍😯🙂🇭🇲🦘✌️
Great tutorial,I’ve just finished a load of figures and to be honest they look like my 2 year old nephew painted them but they are the first ones I’ve done so watching these tutorials are a must watch for me and probably many others out there ,, absolute master class my friend 👍👍👍
@@markusadanitsch648 Wow, we’re so lucky to have RUclips expert in the comments! But I can’t find your “Master class” video showing a far superior technique. 🤷♀️ It must be still in editing! 😹 Do you have any progress on your work and teachings of the greatest techniques? 🏆 The RUclips is waiting anxiously, please, Sir! ⌛️
Beautiful! Would you consider making a video where you use “beginner basic” tools/techniques? Would be very helpful to see great models being made with just a paintbrush and some basic weathering techniques
One of the best figure painting tutorial's I have ever seen... fantastic. What I really appreciate is the details IE colours used, brushes ect. Keep up the good work.
You did a great job on painting you figure I have been painting figures for over 40 years and I love watching how you paint your figure you have a nice day and be safe
OUTSTANDING, James! Very nice figures enhanced may fold by your painting. Rifle stock and pistol holster especially fine. Thanks, too, for the written call outs on the colors you used.
Terrific Video, James. Really enjoyed watching it as it brought happy memories from my adolescent days when much of my spare time was consumed modelling Tamiya 1/35 Armoured Vehicles and Military Miniatures figurines. I love your detailed technique which was a joy to watch. You really bring these DAK figures to life and I have to say they are one the best that I have seen. I look forward to seeing some more of your Videos and I have also subscribed. Thank you for sharing your wonderful Video with us. Stay safe and God bless.
Such amazing work, James. Your channel is a must for all modellers regardless of their experience. Will be looking out for the next episode to see what other marvels you will be creating. Thank you!
Magnífico para mí la escala de 1/35 es ideal para pintar en todos sus detalles tanto como romanos medieval Napoleón o el siglo 20 le felicito mi vista llano es tan buena como la silla gracias por compartir
these are the most beautifully painted figures I've ever seen i swear. i just got a Tamiya 35 scale tank #35378 and it has 5 DAK figures. Also im gonna see if a store in my province of Ontario will source the Scale75 figures for me, they import the busts and more expensive sculpts, i dont see why they wouldn't get those for me. i got a story for ya. so im disappointed with vallejo so much i started switching my paints over to AK Interactive, the 3rd gen 236 line and the new 3rd gen figure line. I purchased a vallejo Panzer Aces 70.310 old wood and i was expecting a nice beige almost buff color, and what did i get? brown. i messaged vallejo, do you think they got back to me? lol. so it made me think if they mess one one color they must've messed up more before and they will continue doing so. I have 70 vallejo model and panzer aces paints i can wipe my butt with.
Really nice work on these figures James! Hey, it's all about the layers m8! Hey thanks for the end credit scroll, I was wondering if you we're going to add the Patrons list. KUTGW!
I discovered your excellent channel a couple of weeks ago and I'm currently watching through them all. Keep up the great work!...oh and this one is just as good :)
Well saved that sunny tone is not a favourite of mine! My friend just got all the scale 75 products in so got a good few sets to try and some British figures
James@LPJ Models - Excellent figure painting Tutorial video. Question: Vallejo Model Colors dry a bit slower which enable you to do the needed color blending when you add on each layer of color?
Hello Mr. Peter, most of the time I'm building up gradual layers of slightly darker or lighter colour, the layers aren't blended as such into the previous layer but optically blended with slight colour shifts each layer.
amazing tutorial. But I have only one suggestion. The skin is very pale. Keep in mind that they are from the Afrika Korps, they are in the middle of the desert, therefore the skin should be much more tanned and perhaps with some dust.
This was very informative; thanks! I just wonder if the figures' skin surfaces are as yellow as they appear next to your normal-looking fingers...? They seem a little jaundiced in the video!
Thanks ! This was the first video recorded with my latest phone so things were a bit off, they aren't as yellow in person, the final shots reflect the true colour properly
Show, are these figures 1/35 ?! I thought they were great. As always, the videos are always good, as I said, I mirror a lot on your channel to create mine.
One of the absolute best figure painting tutorials out there. AWESOME job man.

It's not sorry. it's mediocre and miles away from masterclass lock down models its nice to be nice but one should stay on the carpet with it

Excellent. Nice work. The complete figures beautifully done. I wonder which brand figures they are. Very natural poses well sculpted.👍🇭🇲🦘🐨✌️
@@George-pp2hr they are scale 75 figures, I do say in the title and the video. They are nice figs, thanks !
@@lpjmodels Pardon me . I missed the figure brand. To busy watching the build and paint work.👍🇭🇲🦘🐨✌️
Sorry sometimes I watch but don't quite listen or forget straight away. That's regarding the brand soldiers.👍🇭🇲🦘🐨✌️
Expert no. 1 !
Kind words thankyou !

Thanks Eric , glad you're along for the journey!
great video trying to paint some tarp for the kettenkraftrad maybe the figures but the colours you blend them very thin or?
Always very thin :)
I use blue tack on top of a wine bottle top screw type and push it on to a cork it makes a great cheap figure holder.
Amazing I love to paint figures like you I use tamiya
Paints I guess I need to buy Vallejo paints
Vallejo are brilliant for figures, you can just keep layering them and the coverage is really good.
Well saved that sunny tone is not a favourite of mine! My friend just got all the scale 75 products in so got a good few sets to try and some British figures
Thanks mate ! They look like good paints
Amazing.
Thankyou !
Regards from Argentina!
Excellent!!!
Could you show us how to blend colors on faces, clothes...etc in 1:16 scale, in more detail & more slowly(step by step)?
I dont have any 1/16 figures at the moment but I'm not ruling it out, maybe in the future ! Thankyou for the kind words
Grandios ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thanks Engelbert!
Awesome......can u recommend me what are the best brand to buy colours/paint.

Amazing work , What do you use at thinner? Water, medium, thinner?
Thanks ! Just water from the tap
🤩 Perfect
Top notch!
Belle réussite de ces figurines avec refs !! Il aurai fallu indiquer la période et ou ....Félicitations ....
Stunning work James!!
Can ask a question regarding the VMS Binder is it similar to odoreless thinners?
Hi Dave sorry for the delay, its not like odourless thinners no. Its a binder meaning it turns into a weathering paint sort of thing.
@@lpjmodels HI James, not a problem thank you for that.
Excelente!!!
Thanks !
Great job, how many time does it take to complete one figure
Thanks Rodrigo, if I'm having a good productive time than 2 days, if not it can be a week !
Hay mate don't know if you noticed but the dude with the bolt action rifles his gun is bent. Ps I really love the stuff you do
Woah good spot, I thought it was straight enough to slip by. It was a paint drying accident 😢
Thanks for the kind words !
@@lpjmodels Hay mate that's all right I just wanted to see if you noticed or not can't wait for your next video
Cool!
Show, are these figures 1/35 ?! I thought they were great. As always, the videos are always good, as I said, I mirror a lot on your channel to create mine.
You have some great content ! These are 1/35 yes thankyou
I also use a mirror,, great job!
At last I seem to have found a expert who understands that military figures and vehicles are not a gloss finish!
Thanks !
Superb work while the colour of the rifle seems a tad too yellowish ... unusual to my eyes.
