Brilliant video Scott, you presented a big variety of techniques here and i think this is why your channel is one of the most useful on here, if someone wants to learn a new approach :) I am all pumped up for the next video now.
Glad to see this video! Thanks for showing all the steps you took. I definitely picked up a couple of ideas. One note, the housing for the rear tail light showed no signs of any wear at all. It would seem that area would take a bit of wear, what with rifle butts and boots as the men climbed in banging against that thin metal. 👍
Thanks, Andrew. Yes mapping is something I've been doing for years now. It's a great way to add subtle variation to the paint surface. I'll probably do more in the next video as well. Cheers!🍻😉
Inspiring series thankyou...particularly enjoy seeing the results you achieve in line with my real world observations. Thought I was just not seeing the lighter tone of the popular two chipping effect! Nice to see your results too from things us ordinary modellers stock in our pantries.
Great video, thanks for posting. Have you ever tried thinning the Tamils paint with water before applying it to a chipping surface? It is def more challenging to apply with the airbrush, but it makes the paint much easier to chip
Thanks, Fred! Yes and I prefer using the MLT for thinning as like I said in the video it makes it a little harder to chip thus giving me a finer chipped effect and I can be more aggressive with the tools. Using water is sometimes ok if I want to really go to town on the distressing but most of the time I try and keep things more subtle. Cheers!
I found mixing a couple of drops of thinner and a drop of retarder works best rather than water specially if its multi layer alternatively migs chipping fluid! I think it’s way better than Aks iv struggled with hairspray
Very nice build, when you say glaze , what glaze are you using, or do you mean clear coat, or is glaze a product of its own?. Thank you for your time and once again very nice build in paint scheme
Here’s a link to another video I made that explains what your asking about. Also please consider subscribing if you haven’t already, it really helps the channel out. ruclips.net/video/far9pPzQxWs/видео.htmlsi=bZKa4ByyRcMEIPAn
I certainly can. Tea candles are cheap and you can get them at Ikea, Dollar stores... pretty much everywhere. Pull the wick out, melt the wax a little then create a divot with your finger and presto your CA glue holder awaits the magic fluid. It'll stay fluid for at least the day if not longer. Hope that makes sense. Cheers!🙌
Great video. Love the narration, and the advice you provide. But - I missed the "old tea-candle trick' for CA glue. Where do you describe it? I constantly battle CA glued fingers...
Thanks for the kind words! Yes, I've shown this method in several of my videos. Tea candles are cheap and you can get them at Ikea, Dollar stores... pretty much everywhere. Pull the wick out, melt the wax a little then create a divot with your finger and presto your CA glue holder awaits the magic fluid. It'll stay fluid for at least the day if not longer. Hope that makes sense. Cheers!🙌
Was wondering if you get the chance in future to explain the new kid on the block...acrylic lacquer. Is it new? I've heard its tougher and a great base for weathering but are there any peculiarities in its properties? Just a thought. Regards Jon
It's not new. Acrylic lacquers are paints that can be thinned with lacquer based solvents such as Tamiya Lacquer thinner, Mr Leveling thinner etc. In some cases these paints can be thinned with Alcohol or water as well, Tamiya paints being one of those. I have another video where I test what can be thinned with AK Real colours which is very similar to tamiya paints. It may help you understand a little more. Cheers.

Thanks, Jeff! Glad you liked it. I'll take another look at that housing area. I'm just getting started so there's time for adjustments. Cheers.😉🙌
Looking great Scott
Thanks, my friend! 🍻🙌
Lovely chipping - very impressive. 👏👏I'm intrigued by the mapping. 🤔 I've not seen that before - but I'll be giving it a go! Cheers.👍
Thanks, Andrew. Yes mapping is something I've been doing for years now. It's a great way to add subtle variation to the paint surface. I'll probably do more in the next video as well. Cheers!🍻😉

Okay thank you very much
Can you explain this super glue/candle trick?
I certainly can. Tea candles are cheap and you can get them at Ikea, Dollar stores... pretty much everywhere. Pull the wick out, melt the wax a little then create a divot with your finger and presto your CA glue holder awaits the magic fluid. It'll stay fluid for at least the day if not longer. Hope that makes sense. Cheers!🙌

Thanks, nice tip. I just use old water-bottle caps to hold my CA...
@@rrl4245 use the candle it’s reusable as well. Just break out the dried CA and it’s good as new.

Can you tell us what spray gun you use thanks
Sure. I did show it in the video but I can tell you here as well. I use an Iwata Neo and an Iwata HP-CH plus.
Just a
comment for the algorithm.
Thanks!🍻
