      It was fun to experiment on this Tiger as it’s mainly another test model I use. But that may change in the future. Thank you, I’m just as satisfied with the Tiger too. :-)

    I like how you showed the different types of paints and brands with the Tamiya ones being the best. I usually use Vallejo paints, but maybe I should whip out the old Tamiya jars again! Do you have any recommendations for rust washes/streaking effects? I have attempted it with your method, and I can never get the colors right. Great video as always!

    • @Modkits131
      @Modkits131  2 года назад +1

      In this instance Tamiya worked out nicely for me, because I managed to get the mixing ratio just right. Vallejo and Citadel work just as well. For other acrylic based brands, I’m sure they’ll be very similar.
      In the end it comes down to your preferred choice of paint brand. Whether you want a matte, glossy or satin wash for your models.
      For a rust wash mix I recommend black, brown, red and yellow. These colors can provide a nice variety of rust tones. With only so little. :)

    Wonderful looking Tiger, will there be a video about it? Even tho i now use both oil and enamel washes, this soap washes still is very useful and sometimes the best choice since its so easy to make and wash of the excess, especially when you are running out of enamel thinner. Also i couldn't not notice the background music, scratch the itch, AKA Night Shift theme? Great choice, looking forward for the next video.

    • @Modkits131
      @Modkits131  2 года назад

      As the Tiger model was a pre-built and pre-painted model from Dragon. Sadly no in this case. It’s only another test model for now.
      Ha yeah that is Uncle Nightshift’s theme “scratch the itch” I did it in homage to his videos since I enjoy him using it. Also no copyright claim lol.
      Sorry for the late reply. But I do have some great things planned for some upcoming videos. I am forever grateful for your support. :-)

    Befor you use the wash you made? Do you put any kind of clear coat on befor using the wash?

    • @Modkits131
      @Modkits131  Год назад

      Not always for my personal taste. But I would recommend adding a layer of varnish just to be safe.

    What about painting over this with a clear coat to seal it in? Won't the soap cause problems with the adhesion of the clear coat?

    • @Modkits131
      @Modkits131  6 месяцев назад

      I’ve personally never had issues before. I’m always using water based acrylics.

      It would. But be cautious, as too much rubbing alcohol could damage the paint if you’re not too careful.

      @@Modkits131 alright, thanks man. Would it be a better option than soap due to the fact it evaporates a tad faster therefore leaving no residue, or no? Just kinda concerned the soap would leave some kind of small film on the paint

    • @Modkits131
      @Modkits131  5 месяцев назад

      @mentalillnessconnoisseur6260 It is a bit better than soap because of the flow it gives to paint. I just prefer soap and water because it’s usually easier to remove, if done properly.
