Easy Wood Grain Technique for Model cars and trucks!

- With just a few basic tools and paint, you can create a wood grain that looks realistic!
we are using Tamiya brand paints and panel liners. you can try something different, but the principals are the same.
•Use a light tan color as your base.
•Brush on the panel liner in one small area at a time.
•Use a bit of sponge to drag over the panel liner with hardly any pressure applied.
•Spray a top coat of transparent yellow or orange to help create the wooden "glow".
It's that easy!
Just as with any new painting or building technique we try, a learning curve is to be expected. Don't give up and keep practicing! ☺️

Very interesting technique. All my wood attempts have been terrible so far, so here’s a good basis!
Hope it helps!! I have tried a few different techniques and this one, by far is the easiest to remember. 😁
That's awesome! Thanks for the tip! I'll definitely be trying this out!
Right on Nick! Glad to hear it!! 😁
Bryan, that looks amazing, thanks for sharing your technique
Very welcome John! Hope it can help you out
Great tip Bryan. I hadn't thought of panel liner.
Hi Vince!! That's how Andy showed me how to do it! Works great on wood handles for military vehicles! So why not a truck bed! 😁
Looks great! I just started experimenting with the clear orange a couple of years ago, I'll definitely have to give the clear yellow a try.
Sweet!! They can have such drastically different looks! I feel the yellow gives more of a "pine" look and orange gives more of an "oak" look.
I'm gonna be using this process soon! I love how that looks! Thanks Teach!
Very welcome! Let me know if you have more questions!
Thanks for sharing Bryan. That was so simple.
Hi Sammy! It sure is!! 😁
Interesting technique. If you didn't want to use enamel washes, Citadel washes should work.
Agreed! ☺️
Great wood technique Bryan, 👍👍
Thanks Tom!! Pretty easy! 😁
Excellent tutorial, sir. Very realistic indeed.

The BB and glass piece is with the Tupperware lids. Looks like a simple,effective technique. Will use it in a woodie kit I’m looking at.
Hi George, lol true!!! I have no idea where the kids went! Lol
Very cool! This just the thing i'll be looking to experiment with very soon. Thanks for sharing.
Sweet!! Best part about using panel liner is, if it doesn't go well the first time, you can add more panelinert and sort of erase any mistakes. 😁
Seems simple enough. Even for me. I will try this
Right on Johnny!! Hope it helps you out

Hi Michael, or really is that easy bud. Just a little.practice for how heavy to press on the foam.
Alright Bryan, another smokin' tutorial takin' the pain outa doin' woodgrain! Gotta be some steady hand working the pen for the metal there, me i'm shaky Jake so I cut strips of silver decal (or bare metal) instead. Safe travels!
Thank you very much!! LOl, yeah some days I can do the pen deal, some days I can't. 😁 The strips of bmf are a good idea!
That's fantastic, nice and simple with a great end result
Thank you so much!!!😁

Remember everyone, for a STOCK bed from that era, beds were finished in black pitch, so use a flat black, then weather it!

Hi Mike! You are right my friend!! Let me know if you try it!
Nice! I have a different method for the ones with the raised grain but yours seems quicker and easier! But mine involves finger painting so depends on the mood lol! I have a truck I'm just finishing up that I was going to show it but IDK now. Keep it up and thanks for sharing!

This is very timely and appreciated!! As I mentioned on a previous comment, I'm building the '60 Chevy fleetside pickup (w/go-cart) as a tow/push vehicle for the '53 Chevy panel gasser. I'm in the mockup stage of the pickup and was wondering how to step up my game w/ the wood bed! Tks again!!
Awesome!!! Really hope the video can help you out Johnny!!
Great tip. I need to get some brown panel liner.
Panel liner can be a rabbit hole! 😁 I started to collect all the different styles! ☺️

LoL 😂 very welcome
Nice tutorial always try to do wood it's hot or miss for me
Hi Phil! I know what you mean!! Hopefully, this is more of a straightforward for you.
That looks outstanding BG!!!! Great tutorial!!! Boop!!!! How do you like the infinity?
Hi Terry, thank you!! Oh man, I love the infinity. Works great, but the big selling point for me is how easy it is to clean!!
Pretty cool process Bryan, thanks for sharing buddy. I have a question about Mr. Hobby surfacer.......what's the best thing to mix with?
Mr Hobby surfacer would work best with the Mr Hobby thinner/leveling fluid 400. Had a blue and yellow label. That stuff works with just about everything!
@@BGsModelWorkshop thank you buddy.........I picked some up Saturday and love it so far
Awesome!
Oh man... That's way easier than the insanity I've been subjecting myself to! How did I miss *this* memo??
Lol, right?! I used to sit with a couple jars of paint and try to blend them on the model to create patterning. Oy what a pain!!
Looks very realistic. Had not thought of using panel liner, nice tip. Thanks
Very welcome Larry!! ☺️
Does it need to be cleared an if so lacquer o😊r enamel
I just used rubbing alcohol to clean the surface before priming. To take off the excess panel liner, some enamel thinner will work, but very carefully, the thinner could bother the panted surface.
I have my panel liner in a cleaned out nail polish bottle because of a ball bearing accident.
That happened to you too!! Good idea
Man!!! that looks great!!! And super easy!!!
Thanks Robert!! It certainly is!!
How would you make a oil stain like some motor oil spilled
Howdy! I would definitely use tamiya black panel liner. Just drip a few drops and let it soak in. Don't remove the excess. I've done it in the past and it looked pretty convincing.
@@BGsModelWorkshop thank you will try it
Great tutorial. Bryan sent you an email
Hi Jamie! Thank you. I'll check the email when I'm back from Vacation!
@@BGsModelWorkshop enjoy your vacation
Very similar to what I do. I'll try the clear yellow next time. Thanks Bryan.
Awesome Rob! Great minds!!!😁
