My friends, thank you so much for your support this year, and for 200K! I wish you lots of plastic and calcium in 2022!
You are welcome. It's so inspiring to see you improve your skillset with every new project. By far one of the best model channels on RUclips. Thank you!
It was a tough jear for the most of us. Your videos helped me through a lot. Thank you!
That is great work.
Calcium indeed. I didn't hear anything about bicycling although I suppose a lockdown kind of gets in the way of that. Hopefully that will be lifted after the holidays and you can *not* break a leg working all those cookies off. ;>)
I'd say the foliage/ground work is your best improvement so far. The composition and layout of the diorama you properly credit to others (the execution is yours alone of course) and we expect you to get a tank right- your figure work has improved by leaps and bounds, but I still think the completely convincing foliage is stunning. Without it the rest would look... weird.
Anyway, happy holidays and we'll see you again on the other side.
Merry Christmas! This Dio is Wonderful!!! You're up there with the Best, and your composition is spot on. And eat a Cookie for me...
This isn't just a model, this is a piece of art!
Facts
Damn right!
I agree. Every diorama he does just gets better and better.
TRUTH!
Exactly what I thought! :o)
I wonder what the crew of this Jagdpanther would think about this. Possibly unaware that they were being photographed, a moment in time from 77 years ago recreated in stunning detail like this.
“Why are people fighting over our heavy Panzers?”
This is based off of a real photo?
@@Krispykreme1331 It's shown in the video.
Such a good way to end the year, thanks for all your great videos and happy holidays Martin!
Cheers!
Always sad knowing it’s the time of year when Uncle taking a time out from this amazing channel. All deserved off course :) merry Christmas and happy new year Martin! Can’t wait until 2022 and all your upcoming projects :)
Most modelers are looking forward to some quality bench time during the holidays, and then there's me looking forward to not doing any models for a week :D
Here I am, numb at the kitchen table, forgetting all the tasks I have to do, with butterflies in the stomach, impatiently waiting, like a groupy for this video to come out…WTF have you done to me Martin Kovac !😂
But truly, have a wonderful Christmas! 🎄✨🥂
I now stay up till 3am to catch Nightshift's latest vids...!! 😆 🤣
Cheers my friend, at least you'll be butterfly-free during the holidays :D
I can't give this diorama enough thumbs up. This diorama is probably the best miniature I have ever seen - and I've seen a lot. So good.
I've watched so many of your videos by now, Martin that I say "muh friends" even before you do!
Ohh,Somebody was very relaxed again ! Such patience and time it needs !
In my nightmares I’m at a modeling competition and find out Uncle Nightshift has entered a diorama
Instant second place
Haha, well, I don't attend shows anymore :D A weekend spent on a bike is more fun for me nowadays.
Its such a simple thing but the gutter/drain pipe is "chefs kiss"
It's an exceptional diorama and craftsmanship. It's one of the best I've seen this year and I've seen many. Exquisite workmanship
My friend, you have become a premier modelling channel for all of us. The number of other channels I check out that refer to you during their builds as inspiration is growing! Keep them coming. Perhaps a jet or two in 2022????
You inspire. You really do. Every time I watch one of your videos, I want to paint.
And now my Friday evening is complete. A couple of beers and another utterly absorbing showcase from Mr. Nightshift are all I need to unwind from another hectic week. Ten out of ten, Martin and many thanks for sharing.
Makes me miss the Summer, 17:16 now that's a patch of dirt I could stare at for minutes.....
Amazing Dio!
You better put the clay in one of those seal thight vegetable containers, i remember using them with das and it worked
Master of all trades, AFV's, figures, dioramas, Super work
Just incredible. Enjoy your break.
Never understood sports car obsession! A vehicle like this...pure art!
Magnificent!!!.... "YOU THE MODEL MAN!". Keep those dio's coming in 2022!!
Always appreciate for guiding how to arrange stories in diorama. thanks
everytime i thought he was finished he made it even better over and over again
Modelling since I was a kid, with Shep Paine's "How to Build Dioramas" as my bible, it just blows me away that this is the level that modelling has gotten to now, with 4K video so sharp we can see detail that would be harder to view in real life on 1/35 models. Amazing.
Also, I totally saw the Voelker Bembennek influence since the video of the house build. ;)
For what it's worth, I prefer your videos split up. I like watching them just for entertainment value, but I also use them as a reference. Having a video specifically about making a building or a road makes it easier to come back and refresh my memory!
The Jagdpanther is one of my favorite tanks, and the Normandy campaign is a favorite subject. This dio is superb, well done sir!
This is probably one of the most impressive diorama I ever seen. Huge congratulations, you're a true artist!!!
I must thank you again. I have made many dioramas, one of which has exceeded three million views on youtube. But I admit that you made me want to do the dioramas differently. I started by ordering the polystyrene cutting machine. And I'll copy you, at least at the start. I hope you don't mind. Well done, you really are an excellent designer and your videos are particularly well done. Bravo again and a big thank you. I am sure that you will give birth to vocations.
Thank you, Martin. I think a lot of us have had a tough year, but you, for one, have made it easier for 200,000 people. Just think about that ... until 2022.
Best wishes, mah frend, have a good holiday and return with even more, even more amazing builds and dioramas to share with us, your adoring public.
Thanks, man. All the best 😊
Cheers my friend, I'll have to get another display case for 2022, those dioramas take up a LOT of space! :)
This landscape, covered in black primer made me fantasize about WW2 diorama stylized as a black and white photo.
Night Shift: the man who will take a real rock, put it in his diorama, then repaint it to make it look more like a rock. The detail is so incredible on this model that sometimes one forgets the scale of it, until you see the size of his fingers in comparison and remember that the part which you though was ten centimetres long is actually ten millimetres. An artist at work!
5:52 You know it's good when it looks like actual mud.
The levity of the dog(s), the gravity of the warzone; the ugliness of the battered building, the beauty of the plant life; the vulnerability of one cat, the raw power of the other. A wonderful build that you could explore for a long time.
Holy Shit.When you painted all the ground black I kinda freaked out. then you did your magic. AMAZING!!!!
So really Diorama and so much Details. Very good job and great channel. 👍🏻
My favorite part is allways when u completely black out the ground and then bring it back to life. So amazing
An absolute master class in diorama building
Wow! I thought i would just check out n see this clip real quick. But this hella catched me. I am so impressed of how much enthusiasm and passion one can put on this. Wow! Not too many people have an eye for the little small things in life.
This is maybe the best I have seen like in a long long time…
Like since looking at Volkers dioramas
You know the weekend can start when the notification rings
The journey was time well spent in my humble opinion.
No! Thank YOU, my friend!
You have given my hours of Zen-like fascination and relaxation as you showcase your stunning modelling journeys. You have reignited a boyhood passion that I thought was decades dead. Happy Xmas and New year to you.
this series made me so much more interested in modus and the process of making them, thankyou
You have no idea how I reacted when you said " This is the last video I'm doing..." Literally my heart sank when you said that... Thank crikey it's only for 2021... Lol... Your work has been a continual source of inspiration for myself... Can't thank you enough for sharing your talent and passion with the world... Now go watch movies, play games and have a couple of well deserved beers Marto...! Merry Christmas and look forward to seeing you in the new year..!
Eddy - Australia 🇦🇺👍👍👍
Cheers Eddy! Now it's time to binge watch Breaking Bad and extended LOTR trilogy :D
That grass made my jaw drop. I've watched diorama videos for a few years now, and I have to say, that is some of the most impressive grass I have seen in ages. Absolutely flabbergasted!
This is the amalgamation of everything you’ve learned over the past few years.
Night Shift...
You've excelled yourself with this work... amazing !
Man! I love your painting style. No glossy nonsense. It feels alive. Thanks for showing how it's done.
This was an absolutely incredible series. Congratulations on the phenomenal conclusion and stunning diorama!
Sorry for your situation stay strong and safe. Great diorama. Thanks
In the US we had "21st century toys" which made all sizes of model military vehicles. Watching your concrete Sherman, the current mk4 build and this Jpanther set up makes me want to search my mother house for my old Stug4 modle and try to make a scene!
Great video thank you. Your scratch builkding scenery is so insipring - your sculpting is incredible to me.
I laughed when I saw you using paint brush bristles as grass. When I was a kid I got in trouble for "trimming" mother's broom to make grass for my first few tries at making vignettes for 1/35 figures. In those days (before internet/online shopping) there were esentially no scenics available where I lived, and the only reference materials were a couple of old books in the public library and articles in the back of the Airfix catalogue.
We're so lucky now.
I enjoy your videos, especially the videos on the stone structures and the streets. I am a narrow gauge model railroader and what I model is in the desert Southwest of the U.S. Your methods can be used in model railroading. There were a lot of stone structures as a prevalent and free building material in the SW desert. I have already purchased my large block of HD foam and I got my Proxon cutter and the hand tools. I plan to get some mining town structures going soon. I do hope to see more of your stone and brickwork structure in 2022. I started sharing your channel with my model railroading peers on the forums that I frequent. You may find more of us model railroaders watching your videos. Have a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year. Looking forward to see more from you in 2022.
you're such an inspiration for us Mr. Nightshift
Look’s fantastic can’t wait to see what you do next
This is an amazing example of scale model work....He makes it look so easy.
A work of art, up there with the Chapman brothers, Dinos and Jake.
You are an artist my friend!
A masterpiece worthy of the Tamiya catalogues of the past. Thank you.
This "reeks" of sweat and tears.. 👍😊
Happy holidays!
Wow what an artist with so much skills
Thank you for sharing this with us
incredible diorama. Learning so much watching your videos. (and it passes the time when i'm on night shift lol)
LOOKS AMAZING!
When I read "Cats and Dogs" I thought where the M8 "Greyhound" should be placed in the diorama^^
Have a Merry Christmas uncle nightshift and a Happy New Year :)
Thanks for giving me an idea for another diorama! :D Dog and.... a Dragon? :)
@@NightShiftScaleModels now I am excited what dragon you meen :D
A Tortoise is no dragon ;)
Amazing watching this all come together! Enjoy the break. Can’t wait to see what’s in store next year.
This is just an amazing piece of historically accurate, labour of love! Thank you for sharing your journey with us all!!! Keep up the amazing work!!!
Always that I hear a "my briends", my day becomes happier. Thanks for the content. You are so good and an inspiration.
This is a FANTASTIC way to end the year! Wonderful work!
congratulations on 200k Mr Night Shift!
Absolutely gorgeous!
These videos are so satisfying to watch! Would love to see a tour of the "workshop" and the collection of completed models.
@Mr Martin Kovac, you are one hell of a model builder! Kudos to you sir!!!
Holy smokes this is beautiful! I think this is may be your best series yet. The final piece is absolutely amazing, and all of care really shows. šťastné prázdniny, thank you for another year of wonderful content.
You really went far with this one, this is absolutely amazing, I love everything about this diorama, and watching the whole process was so much fun, than you very much!
Gosh, I nearly blew a few arteries when you announced that this was the last video of yours...until I heard the end of the sentence of course. But seriously, I was frightened. And certainly, this was the most stunning, elaborate and abitious diorama project I have ever witnessed. Have a wonderful christmas, and keep up the good work!🎄
how...just how..ARE YOU SO DAMNED GOOD AT THIS!?
It was certainly worth all the time and energy you put in it. Just great, thanks for sharing the entire process. Have a great Christmas!
This is absolutely awesome! Every aspect of this diorama is stunning. Love your work! Looking forward to what you do in 2022. Enjoy your well earned break!
I'm just blown away! Speechless. It's ridiculously good.
Your life like attention to detail is an inspiration
This is pure art and inspiration. You are slowly pushing me towards this hobby with every video you make. Thanks! Wish you best in 2022!
This made my month. Thank you for sharing your brilliant work and wonderful talent. We love your dialog, too!!!
Happy Christmas Nightshift! I love your videos so please keep going!
You my friend have been blessed with a unique talent not only as a model maker and designer but also as an artist of distinction . What is so enjoyable is that you share your ideas and skills with other model makers and we are never too old to learn . Bravissimo maestro keep up the good work that man your an inspiration.
you scared me half to death when you said this is your last video and then you said for this year and i was so relieved
U scared me sooo much at the end your video is the highlight of my week I wait all week to get home on Friday after school and watch ur new video don’t stop please 😂😂
congrats on 200k, beautiful build man, and are you ever going to make a discord server? it would most likely help a bunch of people, if you would want to I could help, and merry Christmas and a happy new year
That would be great!
it really would
200,000 subscribers already. It has been a hell of a year. Cheers to another
Beautiful. I would add the antenna that all kraut afv's had, and small stones and grass that would be stuck in the tank treads from travel over soft ground.
This looks absolutely stunning. Great job
I have watched a lot of videos, read a lot of books and I can genuinely say that is the best dio I have ever seen
it took you a lot of time but it was definitively worth it
You are a genius, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart of modelling!
Dear Uncle Night Shift,
Spent the summer here on the rugged, rocky coast of Maine building, modifying and running an RC rock crawler . Now it is December and winter in Maine aint for whiners!! The solution, back to modelling.
Martin, your diorama skills have flourished since last spring, to understate the obvious.
Me, the toothpick/epoxy putty technique for zimmerit, pretty damn good, kinda. Weld lines a bust. This is the essence of why I model.
Let's be honest, it is the encountering of and solving of obstacles that cause the juices to flow.
The best until now!!!! 👏👏👏👏
Martin, to you and your loved ones this holiday season and the rest of the year!!
Absolutely awesome piece of work. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
An amazing diorama with all the intense accuracy we’ve come to find in your work
Bloody hell! This diorama is just so good! Well done!
I'll be honest, I've watched this 4x. Its like I am watching a masterpiece being put together before my very eyes. My God... You made me want to start making diorama!
Fantastic! 🤩 Always a lot of work, many turns and detours; but at the end when all things come together.... just satisfying! 😊
