    Hope y'all safe and healthy and building models!
    If you don't have enough modelling videos for one evening, or Tigers, then check out Panzermeister's video about his Tiger: ruclips.net/video/NBoj8GX0okQ/видео.html
    It's definitely nicer than this thing 🤣

      It's really cool, but what you're making right now is not a hybrid Tiger, but a rebuilt Tiger.
      The last 54 tigers produced in August 1944 were used with used body and turret, but parts such as engine and transmission were completely new and were given new vehicle number.Therefore, the hybrid tiger does not differ much in appearance from the normal tiger late production, and all the vehicles used in the Fehrmann tank school are rebuilt tigers.

      I think it looks far more authentic than most I've seen. The time is late war, esthetics are about the last thing anyone is concerned with. And the whole point of camouflage is to break up an objects outline so that it appears as non-descript as possible. Well good sir you have succeeded in that. I look forward to more.

      @@lukeholsten1436 You're aware that colorizing isn't at all a definitive way of determining the finish on a vehicle.... Right? Depending on which colorizer you use and which settings they're being run on, the results will be entirely different. Starting to see the problem? There is no scientific method for colorizing B&W film. It's typically just done to make things *look* right from an artistic viewpoint, but it rarely has any basis on how things actually looked.

    That's a large collection of plastic, putty and metal... looks amazing. Sure it'll look even better when you're done with it
    Edit: I thought Fehrmann Tigers were refurbed early turrets with standard late hulls and either refurbed early/mid running gear or standard late running gear? And I don't think there should be any real blue in German Grey.

    • @NightShiftScaleModels
      @NightShiftScaleModels  4 года назад +11

    I think it looks really interesting. Maybe try to recreate the photo angles of the vehicle with your model once you are done, and try to apply a black and white effect, will be interesting to see whether you hit the tones right. Also, I actually didn't know that the Germans started painting their tanks olive green at the very end.
    And then, I too would be building scale models now, if there wasn't a certain virus preventing me from restocking on glue... The shops are now closed and the stuff I wanted to procure has been sold out weeks ago anyways, even before the total lockdown.

    This looks very interesting indeed... so many layers, I guess you make a scheme to not forgot anything.

    I ripped the tracks of my tank to paint them separately in panzer gray as I had a can 😂 I still need to do some chipping but I did oil paints first so I might have to go back and reapply oils.
