Hey uncle night shift, your alone tree in the french tank build got mentioned in a model magazine, I think it should have had a whole article written about it because it’s so great
What magazine?
@@benfisher3695 International Military Modelcraft , it was an article about a Chernobyl diorama and he wanted to do some like the alone tree as in the french S.35
A good way to prevent the pre shading from desaturating the base color. Is to substitute the black with a very dark blue or brown. And substitute the white with a pale yellow or tan.
I don't know if this is a weird idea, but something I've been experimenting with is using different colors like oranges reds and yellows as zenithal highlights to see how it changes the tone and vibrancy of the basecoat-so that might be something you could consider trying
That can help integrate a figure into a scene per the overall coloration ex. jungle vs desert vs urban.
I really like how the desaturated models remind me of colorised b&w Photographs from the time. Not only because they look nice, but also because you're basically doing the same thing - just in 3d
I really enjoy your video☺️ thank you. Right now I’m building the Su85 tank destroyer.
Since your first video about glazing, I paint my figures like this way and I am always very pleased with the result.
That is the ultimate test:
Does this model LOOK the way I ANTICIPATED it was going to. That's the art.
the paint on the helmets was textured and fairly thick so chipping wasnt a huge problem. the steel was high quality so didnt corrode particularly quickly or noticeably unless left to the elements for a long time.
Like on the head of a Doughboy living for months exposed in a trench.
Every time i see how nice the figures turn out i cannot stop dreaming about our uncle painting a gundam or w40k model with the armour techniques.
It always blow me away whenever I reckon myself forgetting the fact that military had adapted chainmail mask for shrapnel during WWI.
"Spraying from above is more than enough!" - nice phrase and worthy to remember =)
You sir have saved my sanity. I have struggled for long periods of time getting my figures to at least an "acceptable" range for my diorama. This style of painting I saw you do before this video but have since adopted it and what a difference. I can fully understand what "for my purposes" means when you say it as that's exactly where I was stuck or hung up spending way to much time on just 1 figure causing many a diorama to yet be completed. Thank you! thank you! thank you! You are my favorite CZcamsr modeling channel. I owe you a cold one and if ever we get the chance to meet you'll know it's me as I'll be the guy offering my hand and holding out a cold beer in the other.
Для меня роспись фигуры это что-то за гранью реальности ) так что смотреть за процессом всегда интересно. Результат потрясающий 🔥
Надо пробовать, скилл хорошо прокачивается! Автор кстати предлагает оч классный и простой способ для покраски, попробуйте!
@@deusexmachina6260 я тоже это подметил, частичная покраска аэрографом по принципу Черный-Белый хорошо себя зарекомендовал
Great tips, you are certainly a good figure painter
You could try using red/red-orange transparent glase in the nose cheeks area as the skin there is thinner than let's say the chin. And so the blood vessels are more visible there and as a result, the area is more reddish. Just a fine art tip that makes people look more alive. It works with fine art so maybe it will work here as well.
I think you're missing that the helmets mean the faces are in shadow. It isn't so much about the colour as it is about the light.
Preshading with black and white looks like a very nice idea. I should try to do that
PS. Looking at this video has given me more information how to use those colours. Again great effect. Gives the figure a museum like quality especially for diarama purposes. Good show.👍🇭🇲🦘🐨✌️
The figures looked already super interesting with just the shading coats. I wonder what a black and white diorama would look like. You would definitely have to make sure there was lots of interesting details do bring out the most without being able to use color.
Wonderful technique! Black and white are a little stark. But the filters are very effective, and it's the effect that counts, not painting individual details.
Bravo!
I really love your new figure painting technique. I’d be interested in seeing you tackle a modern camouflage pattern on the clothing too. A little trickier I think.
You paint the camo pattern and then use the washes to blend the shadows and highlights. It would make an interesting tutorial, uncle, if you didn't to build vehicle as well.
Hello Uncle Martin! I have a challenge for you! If you accept it, you may create something new and unique (I've never seen one before).
Do a diorama depicting a scene from either world war. Paint the ENTIRE diorama in shades of gray, so it looks like a B&W photo!
Suggestion: An He-111 down in an English field (with a stone wall running through it, and maybe a sheep or two standing nearby), with a lone Tommy guarding the downed aircraft, or also have a couple of RAF officers checking out the wreck. Or, whatever!
What do you think? What do others think of this idea? Has anyone ever seen such a diorama?
You could go a step farther and do it in sepia tone.
Beautiful. You have the skills of a master craftsman.
Amazing work! Thanks for sharing
Take some graphite powder( you can get it by sanding the point of a pencil) rub it on the helmet. It will look metallic as if some of the paint on the helmet wore off.
They look fantastic as always!
I still would have added a stray dig sniffing around. The 2 soldiers are stationary.
Very nice figures. I've used filters, and; have considered glazing a figure before. Just never have tried it. Guess I'm going to have to do that.
Your videos are always so fascinating and well paced. I really appreciate your carefully considered commentary as well. It always feels so deliberate. Great work.
The color of the mud is so realistic, I could almost smell it!
Great as always 👏
I'm currently working on some figures for a diorama and your videos always help me to get better results, thank you! :)
Best figure painting bar none....
Nice result 👍.....I might have to try this as painting figures can be so tedious when they're part of a larger project
Another brilliant video - Thanks Uncle Night Shift for doing these.
Good Day Modelcomrade.
Exelent Figurpainting.
Especialy the Faces from the Soldiers..
Nice weekend and i hope to see soon the Diorama with all Things 😊😊💪🤗🤗🤗🤗🍻🍻
The two figures look fantastic.
I agree with the need for desaturated colors. Aside from often being realistic, I think that it often looks the best for military miniatures. Once again you have done a good job, keep it up, I can’t wait to see the diorama!
Stalingrad makes in my opinion the best resin figures in 1/35, their detail is amazing and these beatiful poses are very rare amongst resin figures in 1/35
It's amazing how good the uniforms look after the first couple of layers. Not even have the fine details done these figures looked great.
dry brushing is totally acceptable in figure painting! great work as always
Remember: It's not about drybrushing high spots. It is about highlighting where the ambient light falls, and shading where the light is in shadow.
Very nice, though the faces too me look a bit too yellow. Maybe it's just on camera, but I think a warmer tone would make them look a bit more alive. Will have to see how they look in the final diorama and how it blends with the lighting of the scene.
I just love how he says my Friends
You truly are an artist, brilliant.
I haven't built a model in decades, but I love your videos.
Hi, if you want to make acrylic paint absolutely matt, add some tooth-powder to it. And yes it is really works.
Coming back into modelling after nearly 40 years watching your videos and ideas has been a great help, if I can get my work half as good as yours I will be happy. On a totally different note, nice to see a WW1 figure that has it's respirator bag the correct way around.
Looking forward to your next build.
You're far too humble! "I'm not a figure modeler", you say as you present us a pair of figures that anybody would be proud to show as a stand alone display. Can't wait to see the finished diorama.
Thank you , Uncle Martin .
always amazed brilliant
Those are some great looking figures! You are definitely skilled!
Great work. Love it. Try cork brown in the face mix rather than dark sand I think you will like the result.
Your videos are so good. You’ve inspired me and given me confidence to get back into my old hobby of model building. I used to build planes in my teens: Airfix and Selley’s Grip! Goodness! Since I discovered your channel last November, I’m back to modelling: Tamiya and all the quick drying glues and paints, etc. I love it. I’ve built 5 WW2 planes and working on my first tank! The weathering was the hardest, but now I’m developing a method and it’s getting better and more realistic, thanks to your advice. Once again, thanks for all you do. I am in awe of your techniques. I’m always looking forward to your videos.
That's figure painting looking like it's easy😅. Love it👌
Thank you very much for this tutorial I found it very useful. Greeting from Vigo.
Really like them techniques and how they came out
Fantastic work…
I swear to god, as a noob modeller, I _need_ these tips.
If you need help with figure painting, hunt down wargaming and fantasy miniature painting channels. Figure painting is a discipline and art just as much as armor modeling...and you can play with techniques from both sides.
Can't stress enough to make mistakes and find a good paint stripper 🙂...and have fun
@@brianreddeman951 understood, thank you lad!
@@berlin_actual
Like Nike says, just do it. That's the only way to what works -- what you like -- and what doesn't-- what you don't like.
Very classy.
I love your painting style so much !
This was just exquisite of a paintjob! Loved how those minis turned out! Think i just got my long lost mojo back in place.
you are a really good figure painter! these look so good!!!! Love ww1 dioramas!
Superbe cette peinture
Superb as always.
Moo stash haha, guy is a legend, look forward to his Friday vids
Cool, keep up good work, dude
Any chance on the chap with a cane.... You paint on his shoulder eplileps a little gold diamond with a crown on top? It would designate him as a Lieutenant colonel.. (in British army its pronounced leff-tenant cur-nel). With that moustache and cane he looks fairly high up and seems like the type of officer who would enjoy inspecting the aftermath of his soldiers taking out a tank to boost morale!
Awesome figures mate!! Well done and keep up the great work! 👍🇦🇺👍
Have you thought of doing a ww1/ww2 diorama but painted as if it was being viewed from black and white photo?
You could do that with the filters/glazes using shades of gray. But stay away from stark white and black highlights.
amazing work for "no figure painter" 🙂
Nice work!
Great video, Thank you
This one's looking terrific, Uncle! 👍👍
Dear Martin, Outstanding workmanship! Best Wishes Johnny
I used this technique on my first figure and it turned out great! It took about 3 days to get 1 figure done, but it was worth it.
As a Warhammer painter I can say that drybrushing is a legit way to paint everything lol
You're highlighting details in a much smaller scale. It's a different technique for a different goal.
Another amazing video man, they came out awesome 👏
Excellent as always.
Very inspiring video!
Nice work,
Please paint more figures!!
Try some German officers…!
We’re really actually trying to do figure painting now. !!
Great job, and thank you 👍🏻
Something I do with my figures, American, British some German and so on. I use your tank cast armor texture technique with the filler and extra thin. I use short stiff bristled brush and add the texturing! you wouldn’t think it adds much, but it really does! Most of their helmets were textured in real life with sand, sawdust, cork gowned up gravel. it’s a great little detail adds a lot to the figure!
Also when I do hair, mustaches, beard or the head, I paint the hair base color and use white, blue, (blue/ white on black hair I also add some dark brown in there too) (yellow,red, light brown if it’s blond hair) read heads get ( yellow,white,orange) I don’t do a whole lot of it, but enough to brake up the hair. I look at comic books and paintings to see how artist are doing it. it adds a lot to the hair! instead of this lifeless one color look. I take as much time with the hair as I do with the folds on their pants or jackets or their face, even if it’s going to get mostly covered it’s another great detail!
Amazing work master 🤩
Your seam outlines are masterful 🙏
Amazing Skills at work!!👍👍
Very nice .
very nice job. 👍
They have a certain charm to them. I have some old 1/32 German soldiers laying around, might try this.
have you ever thought of making a completly black and white diorama?
Wow, they came out stunning. I hope to someday be able to reach your level of painting figures. I’m trying 1:76 Oo gauge figures for a diorama and will try your method. Hopefully it will work… anyhow I’m grateful to you and thank your sharing your expertise.
I think we can all appreciate some well sculpted folds ;)
I'm wondering how to use your techniques to paint camouflage. You found a great way!
This is really helpful
You know you've been painting figures when your thumb starts building up more colors then your project. 😁
Hey uncle night shift, you ever thought about trying a zenithal light for your tanks and diorama? A hard light scene would be amazing and I don't know if I've seen it much in military kits
Not long discovered this channel but quickly becoming a favorite.
always a very satisfying video Mr. Nightshift... stay safe!
fantastic!
Outstanding Job Again😊! I am curious as to why you chose to paint the flesh tones last? It works very well for you, but most figure painters do the flesh tones first. Love the work…
I feel like you need much more saturated skin colours. Maybe the pre shading of these parts would better be blue(ish) than black? Especially next to such a brightly painted tank?
See you in the next one Unc! TFS, GB :)
Very nice job! This whole diorama project is one of my favorites of yours I think it's such a cool scene. If I had one criticism, I think you could use a little bit more shades of pink in the skin tone for their faces. They look like they need to eat some limes lol.
I'd like to see this method on a more vibrant coloreset. Maybe a character from Zombicide/Massive Darkness. Probably less layers would be acceptable to lean into the toony feel? Good work! subbed!
Your videos are a good way to spend a break from working on a diorama
