@pipasjm A color wash consisting of a brown and some black enamel paint mixed and thinned down to a "translucent consistency.....old school, totally obvious!!!
Seriously, this guy is good - people from different contries all model differently ie USA, Europe, Japan and it's noticeable. We all tend to concentrate on different aspects ie weathering, battle damage, accuracy......................
He did a great job with his Zimmerit, I want one of them round roller things that he's got!
funny thing about japanese ive learned from these vids, if you listen closely all the important words are in english, the tube of blue stuff is "Ehpoksi Puddee"(Epoxy Putty, any hardware place should have it...wally world too)
He paints with the tracks on?, and he paints right over top of cables, boxes etc. Those items would not have usually been painted to match the camo in real life. Plus air brushing camo with no paint masking make for unrealistic camo. In real life they rarely had huge spray guns to paint their camo in the field. Most of the time the camo was brushed on, leading to sharp edge camo. Anyway back to doing model my way. Nice vid none the less.
Try your local Arts & Crafts store but the mixing cups aren´t really THAT important. Don´t take what you see too literally (even somethin as an old pringles lid works), what´s important is the end result and that you´re happy with your own work, so quite frankly it don´t matter what others use or think! :-)
thanks for reply, ive tried this before and screwdrivers but can never get the technique right! :( tamiya putty also seems to be the better quality stuff but getting the damn zimmerit applicator is impossible task...we just dont seem to import these great tools! sigh!!!!
Im supposed to get a King Tiger similar to this but R/C for Christmas and I want it to look its best so yea knowing what he used for zimmerit would be helpful
bastard tallented bastard when i built that tiger one i used a flat head screw driver to make each lil kine if id known one of them was availble it wud of saved me atleast an hour lol
buenas sabes tengo ese mismo tanque pero el de usted e quedo mejor jaja sabes quisiera saber si me puedes dar algunas idemas para mi diorama bueno gracias saludos desd e venezuela
This video is SO Japanese, why was it him "Vs" the tank? Watch, near the beginnning, it makes it seem as if he is battling the tank kit. Excellent model though.
It's been many, many years since I built a model kit, but this was very interesting to watch. Some people say there is no skill on building from kits, but this is not true, the skill is in the creation of a believable miniature object, and that takes a good deal of effort if the model is to look good on completion.
i know thisis a mad question and probably no one will no but what colours is he using?
