  • My friends, one of the biggest weathering brands has decided to join the modelling market with a series of civilian trucks in different versions. This technical with a DShK machine gun is the first one they released, so let's see how it goes together!

    you should totally give technicals more love they're very weird and wild things

    Many thousands of years ago I saw an article in modeling magazine. The model was a Testors Land Rover. All painted up,rusted out,seat cushions had springs poking out. It was a fine example of why you do research. Land Rovers have aluminum bodies,no rust and the seats are foam rubber and notorious for being uncomfortable. Look forward to the next chapter Uncle Night Shift.

      That's correct. Edd China is painfully restoring a Range Rover on his YT channel. The amount of rust on the chassis was just amazing. Didn't watch the episode dealing with the body, but the ones on the chassis... Dear God. A true rust bucket.

    I have been wanting to build something like this for a while. Needless to say, you did an absolutely amazing job.

    Cool subject to build, I like those easy and less complicated projects. Can't wait for weathering stage because this model bring a looot of possibilities.

    @fordguy8792 Před rokem +17

    This is technically the second AK kit. AK35001 is the hard top SUV version of the FJ43. 35002 is the pickup/technical version you have. Both look like awesome kits that I need in my collection!
    Killer job on the build, as always!

    @vamthedestroyer Před rokem +24

    One of these days, either the curiosity alone, or something else is gonna drive you to do a Gundam, and good god I cannot wait to see your style applied to that, man.
    I do them myself, and it’s been your style and techniques that’s helped me.

    • @nedinnis6752
      @nedinnis6752 Před rokem

    • @blueline308
      @blueline308 Před rokem +2

      For all that is Holy, never do a Gundam kit. Don't ruin this channel with that weird robot mess. Keep this channel as it is please.

    • @SimonMeskens
      @SimonMeskens Před rokem +1

      Guntank would be great. Or maybe something from the 40K or Star Wars universe. I just want to see him apply a super realistic paint job to something fantasy, that'd be really cool.

  • @BombshellCreations
    @BombshellCreations Před rokem +11

    I am rally glad you mentioned your "cheap" air brush. Watching your videos got me into modeling again. I have an older Badger AB, but it is a siphon feed and is not fine enough for fine detailing and I can't spend the money on a pricey option. I will pick up a BD 130 and can finally finish that KV3 that my son built this summer.

  • @dedstep3686
    @dedstep3686 Před rokem +2

    I've literally been planning out a technical build all day, planning on buying a separate Toyota Hilux model and either a Tow, recoiless rifle, or soviet cold war AA gun to smack on the back. So funny he uploads this today

  • @giuseppe4909
    @giuseppe4909 Před rokem +8

    Would love to see more technicals…I think they are great subjects for you, especially once you do some research and see the incredible array of home-brew mods out there. Also, because they are usually quite neglected, worn and weathered…. Just the thing for your style.

  • @rons5438
    @rons5438 Před rokem +6

    As always, great work and video! Regarding your Airbrush, I have swapped to a Pasche Talon. They aren't the cheapest, but nor are they the most expensive, in the US a Talon kit sells for around $120. But what I love is the way they mark all the needles, aircaps, and tips for the appropriate size, and all the parts are MUCH more heavy duty, so they last a very long time and I never have to bust out the micrometer when changing from .5mm to .2mm to make sure I have all the right bits.

  • @Floris_VI
    @Floris_VI Před rokem +4

    I'm always super excited when you upload something different! Love the main tank conent too but the occasional variation is just amazing!

  • @Wijkert
    @Wijkert Před rokem +1

    Never thought about a curved blade making less contact with the plastic and thus being more precise in certain cases. I can see that coming in handy.

  • @EMTBonsai
    @EMTBonsai Před rokem +1

    Brilliant! Love the blue they were also base coated white and painted blue I read but alot of old land crusers were just plain Jane white on a white primer

  • @kenmetz5048
    @kenmetz5048 Před rokem +5

    Nice work as always! The body gaps around the front fenders and hood are pretty dead on for an old FJ 40, they're huge!

  • @foreverplastickits138
    @foreverplastickits138 Před rokem +1

    *I think that "CONTINENTAU" is for the copyright, AK don't want to pay this fee not to increase the price of its kit. Well done, the paint is delicious!*

    Even in an unfinished state it looks great, all the shading just makes everything pop. I'm a real sucker for weathering though so looking forward to the finished model.

  • @daniellejones5981
    @daniellejones5981 Před rokem

    I don't use Lead for straps anymore! It breaks to easy... Now I paint Paper with Craft Paint! It's much stronger than Lead and is flexible. And you can have any color and the paint won't flake off.

    I really like that you're building more than just tanks now. I've watched you build tanks and tanks and tanks and dioramas... This is the first non tank I've seen you build. Can we get more non tank model builds from Night Shift?® 😅 😅 😅😅

  • @fonesrphunny7242
    @fonesrphunny7242 Před rokem

    If you like improvised AAA vehicles: BTR-D with ZSU-23-2
    It's basically just the deployed ZSU trailer, strapped on top of the BTR-D. The 'feet' rest on wooden blocks and actually strapping it down (with scale ratchets) would look amazing. I think it's pretty cute and with the guns pointed up, would fit on just a small vignette, with some bushes and maybe a small tree.

  • @xavierrennes7014
    @xavierrennes7014 Před rokem

    Superb job, as usual, Martin. 👍
    We learn a lot of tricks with your videos, and the result is way ahead of other videos we can see on CZcams.
    Regarding the gap you got on the tail gate (3:40), you need to start gluing the side walls from the back end first, then going on with the gluing towards the front.
    This way you get no gap on the tail gate.
    Keep on with the good job !

    @trailerparkpimp Před rokem

    You should have wear and tear on the outer side of the driver's seat. If you can, add cigarette burns and simulate exposed foam from the seat cushion, while leaving the passenger seat in slightly better condition.
    Just look up used trucks and SUVs for sale to see what I mean.
