Thank you for using NON AIRBRUSH techniques, I really appreciate this.
You're welcome! Before starting the tutorial series I found that most videos involved an airbrush or used pigments. The results were often great but they involved a lot of investment before you could get started. So I thought I would try and replicate the results with just tools and resources people already had.
Seconded. It was great to find this as I dont use an airbrush(and dont want to either!).
Loving all your content, but would love to see some more Bolt Action stuff interspersed with the 40k stuff.
@@PeteTheWargamer i thanks you soo mutch. You gave me second chance to be a modeler in cze i am modelář
I also appreciate tutorials that don't presume an airbrush. My hobby space is extremely limited and my painting desk hotbunks as my work-at-home desk by day. I barely have room to put my painting station during those times, I certainly don't have room for a compressor and all that. I've considered getting one of those little hand-held "cordless" airbrushes as I'd only normally be using it for priming models and basecoating vehicles (also no place for me to use rattlecans here).
Thanks for sharing techniques for painting tanks and camo that do not require an airbrush!!!
You're welcome :)
using a brush and sponge to me shows real talent!!!!
The "box" you mentioned and painted brown, on the right side of the tank, is actually a jack block to provide more ground area for the jack. The horizontal metal strap secures it to the tank for stowage and the two vertical metal straps were fastened around the block to keep it from splitting while under jack pressure.
Brilliant tutorial, please keep them up. A true Everyman's Tutorial that doesn't rely on airbrushes.
That's the plan, I'm hoping to tackle some winter camo next.
Considering you are not following the RAL system, it looks very accurate. 41-43: 7028 Dunkkelgelb 41 & the camo patter was RAL 6003 Olivgrun & RAL 8017 Schokobraun 44-45: Base colour RAL 7028 Dunkkelgelb 44 & the pattern was RAL 6011 Resedagrun & RAL 8012 Rotbraun.
Well, I just finished a Bolt Action Panther using the technique from this video.
And I like the result.
It's better than the result I got using my airbrush on the other panther.
Thank you
Awesome! I'm glad to hear it 😁
Well, now I feel like a fool for buying all of the fancy weathering pigments, airbrush stuff, and camo paints. This seems so much easier!
I absolutely loved this! It was short enough not to be a major investment in time, though long enough to give detailed information on how to paint the model. The instructions were very easy to follow. 10/10 I just subscribed!
That foam stippling is GENIUS! I'm going to try using a cotton bud on my 15mm "Bergepanther mit Pz IV turm".
Never thought of using a sponge for the camoflage..great idea! The whole tutorial was instructive...thanks!
Truly appreciate this for 2 reasons, a) you took the non-airbrush approach, which IMHO deserves merrit on its own, and b) for doing everything with Army Painter paints and washes as those are my preferred paints along Revell acrylics.
Your advice will be put to good use with the Kaiserkäfer from Modelcollect that I'm curently working on for a 1/35 scale Weird War skirmish project.
...and luckily the Kaiserkäfer doesn't have treads ;-).
I've just bought and built my first tamiya minauture (King tiger), and this video has helped me out so much! It's super hard to find a quality tutorial which doesn't involve an air brush.
Thank you so much for these! Have so many British and German tanks to paint!
Looks insane with brush! Good job!
Will try on my 1:35 Ferdinand thanks for the tutorial!
Amazing detail!
Great video, thanks. There is horizontal gap between upper front and lower plate that needs to putty+grind process before painting.
Try using a mix of hull red and gun metal 50/50 for your chipping color. I think it makes it look much more real.
Great tutorial as always
Thanks :D
Wow that’s art!
Very helpful. Thank you
Thank you! No airbrush. Brilliant.
This is awesome, i was always told, forget doing camo, unless you have an Airbrush! A Big Thank you for the tutorial :)))
There are plenty of ways of doing camo without an airbrush, don't believe the lies! :P
Thank you for doing this video. Crackingly good stuff.
Very good video using sponge to do camo patterns 👍👍👍
Beautiful
It is nice to find someone who uses common household materials that most people should have to paint their models
Brilliant - thank you!
Never thought of using the sponge technique to put camo on , cheers for a awesome tutorial
No problem, I'm glad I could help.
Makeup brushes might work nicely, too.
Superb! i will try this on a mecha.
A word of advice you have helped me with the no airbrush technique so my advice is use micro sol and set it helps your decals not silver 😀
Nice Tutorial .
Wow you make it look easy
love to see how to apply a winter white wash over any of the tanks
There is a white wash tutorial planned :)
This is really helpful for me as I won't able to get an airbrush at home! Thanks for your video!
You're welcome!
new subscriber! Nice!!! I am working on a Panther now for a show here in PA and like using the sponge effect on the camo too!!!
Looking for a Soviet tank tutorial next then you would have all the major powers. Great job so far!
Brilliant tutorial.
Thank you very much
Hi, Pete.
Kudos for some of the greatest videos on painting I've come across - easy to follow, but hard to master.
Just as it should be. Wax on, wax off - practice makes master, right?
Now, I've recently returned to war-gaming full time...been playing and painting Warhammer and 40K when I was a wee bit younger (like 10+ years ago)...and I recently got hungry again, for something new...and I found rule sets that I really like (Chain of Command, Bolt Action).
So I bought some stock kits to get started, and been using your videos to get a grasp and a feel for the new theaters - not the fantasy of Dwarfs and Goblins, nor the far future of Tau and Eldar...but history as we know it.
The time and games that you do very well.
Now...the kits I've bought is early war Russians and Germans...'39-'40. And I do like your video on painting German troops - I use the same paints, and I do get decent results.
However - doing that era's tanks and Russian infantry...I can't seem to find any inspiration and techniques to the standard that you're doing...Any idea where I might look further?
I mean, my shades of grey are so good so far - but what you do is mention the actual paint that you use, and it makes all the difference.
Any hints and tips as far as basecoat, color-scheme, camo, highlights...you know the drill :)
I wish for a master's eye as to painting early war Russian and German armor...
...love your videos - spot-on and extremely helpful.
Cheers, from Denmark.
Brilliant just about to set up and try this ! 😀
That was a great video and very helpful... thank you
Epic! Thank you!
Awesome, gunna follow this tutorial to do my Panther
Glad to hear it, feel free to share the results on my Facebook page!
LooksGoodMan
thanks mate i m waiting for ambush camo :)
I Love You Man! lol I know it's an old video, but I always look at your stuff first to get an effective paint-job on a Model before I give myself an anuerism. Great Video! I JUST picked-up some Late-war Germans, and I love my Tanks!. Your The Man, Pete! for Tanks!
Great video, thank you.
I was a bit irritated when my airbrush had finally died, after so many years of using it. I decided to give the methods here a try and it worked wonders.
I'm now trying it out on my 1/35 Tiger 2, bit more time consuming but I'm liking it so far.
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much, it helped me alot
Great video do you have a list of GW paints that would be used instead?
Nice informed video. Some great tips which I can use incongution with tips from Marcus Nicholas (Tamiya magazine). That's how I paint all of my armour is by hand. People ask why not airbrush? I think it's to informal. Armour are like kids, the messy the better they look. I'll watch somemore of your 'how to paint' videos. From Down Under 🇦🇺
Nice video 🤘👍
Really great simple but effective technique for gaming tanks vs detailed models. One comment. Why not use your sponge to apply a little metallic glint to the tracks??
It should also take very little time!
I love the video and I love seeing someone not using an airbrush so a basic painter can follow along like myself. I do have one question though how would you go about painting a Russian t-34 using the Army painter warpaints?
Thanks for these tutorials which are very helpful. I notice that you do not apply a varnish to the finished model. Is there a particular reason for this?
I tend to varnish my 15mm vehicles as a precaution against damage to the paintwork whilst being handled in games.
Great video, do u have a tutorial for the pak half track?
Great tutorial, it's really appreciated. A question about the wash: I'm painting a Panzer IV and the wash came out really streaky and it didn't look grimy, just bad - especially on large flat areas like the schürzen. Do you have any advice on how to get the wash to apply more evenly to those surfaces?
Do you prefer Army Painter or Vallejo paint for WWII vehicles? I can't really decide lol.
Really cool !
Could you do a German fallshirmjager tutorial
I'm hoping to get back into the Infantry tutorials soon which should include fallscrhimjager, grenadiers, marines and japanese.
Thanks for showing how to paint without airbrush. Those things are so expensive
thank you I can make my german camo better than before
I am trying this with the olivgrun and rotbraun airbrush and brush colors from AK interactive but can't get a solid result! It is too thin for the brush or sponge for what I've tested. Multiple coats do not quite get a solid finish. What should I do? I do not have an airbrush
Great idea. I'm hoping to start a ss army and will defo use this technique. Any tips on how to do the ss camo on the infantry?
Using the Army Painter range I would start off with Leather Brown. Then I would stipple Army Green and Angel Green/Greenskin over the top using a light sponge technique. Finishing off with a wash of strong tone ink. Hope that helps!
Do you think I could do this on 35th scale tank? (With a bigger sponge)
Great to see a how to video that doesn't need an airbrush. Just wondering, I'm planning to do a late war Waffen SS army using warlords Winter Infantry - would this camo still be suitable? I don't think they'd have time to repaint the tanks for winter!
Watch his tutorial for winter whitewash, and do that but over the camo
I'm really new to painting model tanks, is it ok to use spray paints? (I'm in a really tight budget on painting a model tank that I got as a gift)
What brushes are good and what size should I get for 28mm. I just got into this scale from 1/72
could you use black primer?
Excellent video, thanks. I would have liked to have learned a bit more about what the materials were that you were applying to the tank. Was the paint acrylic based, lacquer, enamel, etc.
They're all acrylics, I used the Army Painter range which is entirely acrylic based.
The War Gamer thanks for the reply
Great job but do you only use one colour for the tracks and no shade/high light/patina?
Pretty much, although I've shifted to using an AP Dark Stone base followed by a glaze of an orange paint before applying my metal drybrush and finally the mud.This gives the tracks a slightly rusted appearance.
For those of us who might not have your ability, how do you feel about Army Painter Quick Shade? At what stage of the painting would you use it and can you use it with inks?
I've not used it personally but you could probably go ahead and paint all of the non-wash steps first and then cover over the top with the quick shade. Just make sure you use a matt varnish to remove the shine effect once you're done!
Awesome tutorial - thanks for sharing :) what Panther model is this?
Thanks! That particular model is from Warlord Games.
thank you for your guide, you have no idea how awful i try to make this with airbrush . also did you got any video, or plan to make a paint of any IJA ww2 tank , i found their camo patern is seem very complex
I do have a Chi-Ha primed and ready for when I come around to do IJA. Which scheme do you have in mind?
hum.. how about the mix random blob next to a random blob ,i alway think this blob camo style between 3 color yellow , green and brown of IJA is extremely difficult to paint
Also,how much paint remain in the mop when you do this technique ? i try to do myself, but the paint sip all over the place on the model, not a neat nice line /blob like you
Nice technique with the camo! Did you thin the paint or did you just dip the foam straight on the paint?
Pretty much straight out of the bottle, but I did blot the foam onto a piece of the paper first.
how would you go about doing this cam scheme for a Warhammer foot soldier? same concept with the sponge I assume? Thank you, and great video BTW :)
Which miniatures are thinking? Space Marines?
Imperial guardsmen
You do not go over what you did to the tracks.are they washed? And maybe highlighted with gunmetal?
I first of all painted them with the oak brown and washed them at 8:18 with Srong Tone Ink. You could highlight also with gun metal if you wished.
Very helpful...thanks
I'm going to do this to my stand-mixer
2:12 can we use this technique on 1/35 models too ?
Do you happen to know what these colors would be in vallejo?
I don't use tamiya myself but there should be some conversion charts out there.
www.dakkadakka.com/wiki/en/Paint_Range_Compatibility_Chart
I know this comment is old but did you ever find out the colour equivalents for Vallejo?
what would be the citadel equivalent to desert yellow primer
I believe Zandri dust is quite similar
Sponges...for camo.... your a mad man
I have 2 airbrushes hand you work looks the same great job
Do you use any thinner for your paints or is everything good to go right out of the bottle?
Usually just water but I've recently found acrylic airbrush thinners to be quite useful too.
Pete The Wargamer Thank you! Do you know how many parts thinner to paint is good for making camo patterns?
That's super nice but I'm probably not gunna go that deep into it..... we'll see about that later 😅
Would using chaotic red instead of fur brown be ok? Or do you think it would be to strong?
Chaotic Red could be used, it's quite similar in color to RAL 8012 Rotbraun which was the colour applied to the tanks. However, when painting miniatures you're not always looking for the 100% exact paint match because what you're painting is a smaller representation of a full sized vehicle. This means that the colors may appear to be lighter or even different in shade to their real world equivalent. Therefore, never worry too much about getting complete matches in colour, good approximations are fine.
The War Gamer thank you for your reply. I really liked how your late war Marder 3 turned out with the chaotic red and thought it might go well with the green for this camo pattern. I’ll try it out and share with the group if it turns out ok. 😜
Tfw you apply soft edge camo with a cheap ass sponge just to flex on those airbrush users
What's that in English ?
what would the tamiya equivalents for these paints be?
I don't use tamiya myself but there should be some conversion charts out there.
The War Gamer yeah i found that the spary paint wasn't what i thought it was gonna be so I'm gonna order some army painter paints soon
Sponge! Genius!
Super cheap and super easy to use.
I have heard really bad things about army painter being the worst paint ever tho im unsure to buy this so can you tell me about you re expierience with army paint er thx plz
I still use it extensively. Most peoples problems seem to come from the pigment separating in the pot and them not shaking it enough before use, resulting in patchy coverage. Here's an example of something I painted recently with Army Painter: czcams.com/video/4TDOIMWC1aQ/video.html
@@PeteTheWargamer thx man it means a lot to know this and i will use this vid to paint my panther as well thx very helpful
@@PeteTheWargamer Personnal preferences but I have found Prince August to have superior coverage and pigment density. Also they offer perfect matches for WW2 schemes. I still like the consistency of AP metallics and Oak Brown.
@@alexandre4466
Out of curiosity do you mean Vallejo Model Colour? From the shop in Cork Ireland?
@@johnoneill3654 Hello John,
Indeed I was talking about the spanish brand Vallejo. In France it's sold under the name of Prince August my bad.
Really good coverage, everything you can dream of in term of military colors. Some colors such as the Red are better found in GW.
My must have VMC so far
- Ivory (Mix for Highlight)
- Hull Red (Before flesh)
- German Grey (Incredible color)
- Dark Marine Blue (to work shadows)
- Orange Brown (for new leather)
- British Uniform (always useful here and there)
Don't make the mistake to buy all the military greens and sands yellow. They are kinda similar and you can mix to get the desired uniform that vastly vary in reality anyway.
Good painting mate!
can you tell me what scale this is please?
1/56 or 28mm Wargaming Scale :)
Is this Revell 1/72 panther?
Nope Warlord/Italeri 1/56
wher did you get the wash
It's available from the Army Painter.
The War Gamer Army painter.com ? I Wonder how mutch it cost. Im a swed btw
thearmypainter.com they $15 per spray can $3 per warpaint
The music makes me anxious 😟
Dear Pete: that paint s name doesn’t look “Straightforward “ to me as an intermediate modeler!
dunkel gelb? what happened to dark yellow?
What ?
@@jimmytgoose476 Yes. I think it's annoying to look at a video in English and then they start to throw in some German words in a way that it doesn't sound German at all.
A lot of these videos are done by native English speakers who often mispronounce foreign words ; i occasionally ask a native speaker for help with pronunciation but there aren't that many Germans in Britain (and frankly I'm not surprised ).
If this is the biggest annoyance in your life you should try watching the news .

Fyi the rubber around the wheels was a dark grey not black! Did you not look at any reference photo's?
