Building the Hasegawa MK44 Ammoknights Maschinenkrieger SF3D Plastic Scale Model

[@Scaleaton]

Hi! This the first element of the final video of year. Stay tuned for the diorama video. I hope it will be uploaded before 23rd of December.

[@derekhell666]

FYI I did not find the building portion boring at all. :)

[@apexsplash5088]

I love the guide in the up left corner it's really helpful

[@bc82870]

It is so therapeutic to watch you air brush and listen to the music

[@ForTheGreys]

dude this is so good. easily the nicest paint job i’ve seen on one of these. i’m going to do a shopping list of all you’re items you used and try it on some cheap model and practice these techniques. thanks so much for such a descriptive video.

[@paulkern7229]

I am in awe of your airbrush skills....

[@stevetuck7684]

the build is just as important , as the weathering , the little nuance's you add , I love to watch , I especially like that piece of music with the banjo , awesome

[@johncardona4731]

I can watch you build models all day long! I have learned so much. Thank you!

[@Ti4019]

i just found your video, I built up the legs and stared the forward frame on my ammoknight yesterday. I love that you are including the instruction sheet step on the video.

[@carlosarce6352]

Excellent presentation , l especially like the part in where you put the schematics of the parts you were assembling on the side of the screen. A+.

[@CloneDaddy]

I can't say I'm a big fan of the model itself, but the work you put into it is phenomenal. That's one of the best paint jobs I've ever seen. Well done, brother.

[@JDsHouseofHobbies]

WOW! I have this kit and I don't think I can do it the justice that you have. Simply amazing!

[@iaincameron4867]

That was incredible! Thanks so much for sharing. I've never seen anyone paint an entire kit with an airbrush before. (I only returned to the hobby recently after years away) You've not only inspired me to do better, but given me new techniques to try. The pastels for figure shading, and pencil for highlights, are genius ideas. Keep up the good work, your models are awesome!

[@SilverMKI]

Love that you add the paint moxes and layering to the video :)

[@jerryvolpini7987]

Superb painting and weathering!!! These kits just lend themselves to such techniques - great job 👍

[@trigmachine]

awesome airbrushing and finishing

[@seventysevencats]

Your painting skills are so impressive, it makes the videos very enjoyable.

[@VonRammsteyn]

Stunning! I can see why you choose this fantastic figures...

[@emperortrajan3609]

This was an awesome vid. I'm super happy you included that thinner to paint.

[@danielbrandao3166]

Awsome ! You’re an expert in painting and weathering, excellent job.

[@DocRaz84]

Amazing work and one of the best model tutorial ive seen in a while!

[@ursmeyer5913]

Details of texture are insane!

[@rudivandermeer3686]

I was never much interested in ma. K until i saw this. The skill you posess is secondary to the art you inspire!

[@mgorscak]

love the painting.. will try that multi chipping layers. can't wait for the diorama video

[@reggiecl]

Great job! realistic weathering...Extra information is very good and well done.

[@jasterslegacy2607]

Beautiful work!! So awesome to see your whole process and approach + all of the airbrushing specs!

[@michelbliek_2148]

Maschinen Krieger is one of the best!!!

[@magnusm.573]

Hey, I just bumped into this channel, and I just wanted to say that I'm VERY impressed with the production quality of your videos! Normally I'm not the biggest fan of model videos without audio commentary, but the way you show the step you're doing while you're doing it is just ingenious! Kudos to you.

[@PuriGarage]

superb paint jobs

[@simc444]

Mad painting skill. Great work.

[@yopibram]

Hasegawa.. the 1st kit i have when i was a little kid 😍 I didn't know this kit is so awesome nowadays

[@Green98sav]

Beautiful, you are a true master of the art

[@666chew]

Awesome work. It looks like it can just get up and move on it's own.

[@rogerwhite9484]

Another superb video, TY Scale-a-ton for sharing this step by step build , I learn a lot from watchig your builds & I cant wait to apply some of the techniques to my next build . Very happy I discovered your channel & subscribed

[@Manu1876]

Whow just amazing, thanks for this, you are a master, great work great talent. Please more more videos whit "Maschinenkrieger" you ave a many choices. Manu from Faro (south Portugal)

[@robbo1068]

Regardless whether you build aircraft, ships or fantasy objects your artistic talents shine through as always. Another super model !! I'm looking forward to see what comes next.

[@Scaleaton]

Thank you very much for your valuable comment!

[@zuke-ci4vd]

I have been building SF3D ORIGINAL kits since the 80's, I still have some of the serial numbered boxes. I have collected some of the Machine Krieger kits as well. I just love the whole concept. I kick myself for not buying the board game! P.S. I don't believe I have ever heard of the pencil led technique!! I will most definitely use that in the future!!

[@gpgpgpgp1000]

Great job painting!

[@dasabaja]

3:00 Boring!? My friend, I watched a video series of a man, in real time speed, assembling 1/350 Bismarck....9 hours in total...for a modeler, watching someone assembling stuff is never boring :)

[@Scaleaton]

Lol

[@katana2665]

Excellent work.

[@cloggerdempsey]

Love the videos. With figure painting I find using oils for the skin gives me the best results. Just mixing yellow ochre, burnt sienna and titanium white and variations of light and dark give a convincing skin tone. Could also add red for cheeks and lips.

[@anjkovo2138]

That is a well presented quality video. Very enjoyable. Thanks

[@洞口久光]

Nice work!

[@Mishn0]

This is the first video of yours that I've watched. It's one of the most information dense modeling videos I've ever seen. I really liked the embedded instruction images in the build portion. Good job, not that it means much, but I'm very impressed.

[@whereisrevell]

I'm glad I watched this. The rusted chipped look had eluded me until you did it.

[@Ocram.m]

Very inspiring! Bloodynice work

[@ThatMofoDamon]

Great build i enjoyed it from the begining to the end.

[@salvation7362]

This reminds me that I have a Gundam model still in the box from like 3 years ago to build... Great content, Happy Holidays!

[@user-ej1ip2zp7n]

Очень круто поздравляю с окончанием и спасибо за вашу работу что радуете нас 😎😁😀

[@RubyMarkLindMilly]

Looks fantastic mate!!

[@Ernzt8]

Amazing job!

[@burntelmtoo]

I build/convert the MK 44's Ammoknights into superheros. I have done Dead Pool, Harley Quinn, and Blue Beetle. Really fun kits ;)

[@jenscabrero2581]

You are a Artist 👍

[@aristidenyx8628]

I love these Ma.K kits..

[@oldbaldfatman2766]

Oct. 31, 2019---Thanks for showing off the kit and your finished build of it...looks great. What would make it more interesting is having a weapon or 3 on it, then show it killing bugs ala Starship Troopers.

[@RaduB.]

Hi Rahmi! You're getting closer... An Armoured Fighting... Suit! Not far away from an AFV. :-) Impressive result with the weathering. 👍

[@Scaleaton]

Hi Radu Thank you very much! To be honest that was the most enjoyable build this year.

[@christjansen1453]

What a great video.. the way you paint it it's so ralistic... you got your self a like and sub... keep up the good work man

[@JedenSiedemDwa]

I'm not a Maschinenkrieger fan, but the result is awesome! I'm always amazign, how easy is painting for you! And soft pastels are good for almost everything in all scales. ;) All the best for You! ;)

[@张旺-l1l]

what a great work!! look those beautiful and delicate details!!! i think maybe i should "copy" one as your steps !! LoL

[@Scaleaton]

Thanks! That's why I share ;)

[@darksheepvids]

Thank you for the video very interesting and help full , I wanted to ask what other paints could I used instead of the H460 as I can't find anyone with stock of this paint. I also wanted to ask how long I can leave the chipping fluid on before I do the chipping and how long I should let it dry before painting over it .

[@SB5SimulationsFerroviairesEEP]

Good job! Stéph.

[@TR-707]

i would love to see the original kitbash version from like 1980s

[@ericverpeten4249]

Fantastic

[@ХомякХомяков-ъ3м]

Excellent ! but have a little note : in some places little decals looks like they added on an old and hard using metall, in very final part

[@MrBMBuilder]

You gotta like SF3D

[@aleccap8863]

Damnit I wish I could do eye that good

[@amcastro8599]

This is so awesome! For the chipping medium to work is the base coat has to be lacquer and the top coat that goes over the medium acrylic?

[@s0p1s]

amazing!!

[@michaelseo6177]

Awsome work~~

[@williamcorban5244]

Great work keep it up!

[@cemaa4338]

Ellerinize sağlık. Süper olmuş yine... Primer>Boya>Chipping Medium>boya>Chipping Medium>Boya..... Şeklindeki kullanımı ilk sizde gördüm. Süper olmuş.... Diorama base çalışması da sanırım devam ediyor. Kolay gelsin üstat.

[@Scaleaton]

Figürlerin gümrükten çıkmasını bekliyorum. Umarım bir aksilik olmaz ve bu ay içinde bitmiş olur. Teşekkürler.

[@kennethcajulis7177]

What do you call that technique you're doing at 7:24? Can you do a tutorial on it? Thanks a ton!

[@Scaleaton]

It's post shading weathering. Check my latest video (P-40N) for more details.

[@doubleheadedeagle6769]

If you ever want to see great armour effects have a look at night shifts vids. You are both wonderful modellers.

[@bjsteg79]

Great video! When painting figurines, your black basing technique works well. If you want to push the detail a bit further, looking into zenithal highlighting mini painters use. It's almost identical to black basing but with more attention paid to light source and highlight & shadows. :)

[@Scartkabel]

Great music!

[@hatimmachi7211]

lacquer paint can be used for chpping technique ?

[@RMZFILMS59]

where is the colorful sanding block from? Also you use isopropyl alcohol for Tamiya paint vs Tamiya thinner, any reason?

[@corkcamden9878]

What concentration isopropyl alcohol are you using when you thin paints? There are different concentrations. Is it 70%, 90% or another?

[@Diegocordovilla]

Awesome as always, do you have a blog with pictures of the painting process or something similar? Anyway you could publish it in magazines

[@Scaleaton]

I have a blog but didn't update it this year. I am planning to make a "modeling basics" video serie include different painting tecniques with airbrushes. I am not ok with magazines because they have some termns and conditions like model pics with their products or using only their products for publishing my articles. I rejected that offers instantly of course. I think KZbin is great for honest modeling.

[@narce160th]

Amazing, it looked like metal, paint actually falling off the surface and cracking!! The layering really paid off. Question what type of paint do you use? Acrylic, enamel etc etc

[@Scaleaton]

Thank you! I prefer Tamiya and Gunze acrylics. Also Mr Color lacquer series are the best modeling paints with accurate color tones in my opinion.

[@narce160th]

@@Scaleaton Thank you

[@anjkovo2138]

Superb👍😊👌

[@alpertatkan874]

Çok güzel oldu. Bence bugüne kadar yaptıklarınız içinde kitin ruhuna yakışan en iyi boyama bu oldu. Bu arada ek bilgi olarak kitin hareketli olmasını sağlayan parçalar silikon değiller, Poly-Cap adında genellikle Polietilenden üretilen Japon üretimi mekanik kitlerde %99 olan bir parça.

[@Scaleaton]

Çok teşekkür ederim. Evet onu yanlış biliyormuşum bilgi için teşekkürler.

[@Karadum]

I am a little surprised how the glue is applied. When I was modelling, I applied the glue on the edges before snapping them together. Is it usual/better to apply them post snaping as in your video?

[@decibelfilm]

In his Macross video he explains that, though it's a regular cement bottle, he's filled it with a far thinner adhesive (possibly custom made?) that essentially seeps into the seams as he applies it.

[@Karadum]

@@decibelfilm Thank you captain!

[@mutehowl]

You know where to get that model online?

[@Zig_no1]

More sci-fi i love it.have ypu thought about battlestar galactica viper or macross yf-21.excellent work keep them coming.

[@Scaleaton]

Thanks a lot! Sure more Sci-Fi videos will come

[@czarpeppers6250]

Oh man I would love to see him do something like a sci-fi capital ship, or space fighter like the Viper.

[@sylvainflandre2906]

J j'adore à faire 👍👍👍🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷

[@ebatteba]

great job! would you like to try yourself in armored vehicles?

[@Scaleaton]

Thank you! I bought a few AFV kits already :D

[@manicalavera7242]

increible

[@alxsblv6164]

Is this just a model, or there is some manga\anime type media about this armor suites?

[@MisfitRecords]

Just a model unfortunately they never made this into a anime

[@doncarlton4858]

Back when Star Wars came out there was some interest in Japan of producing a Sci-Fi series using these models in stop action animation. A test pilot (excuse the pun) was produced, search You Tube "SF 3D Original Video" to watch it. The project never went anywhere, but a relative few of these kits were produced with some of them finding there way to the States in the early 80's. No more kits were made for over a decade due to copyright disputes. Fortunately the made a big comeback in the past few years.

[@立花徹也-z4x]

nice!

[@czarpeppers6250]

How you ever thought of doing a rocket kit? Like Saturn V or R-7 or something, I've been doing Vostok recently and I'd be curious to see how you would do one.

[@Scaleaton]

That's completely unfamiliar subjects for me. But why not.

[@louiswilkins7461]

Sweet

[@kallemon]

Pretty okay! But i'd say you lean on your airbrush WAY too much. Did you just get one, so you use it all the time to practice?

[@GurtMcDirt]

Sweet vid, man! Perfect amount of depth shown into your process. Oh, and uhh... do you want me to buy you some gloves? :P

[@ericp9990]

Awesome work! Why do use Isopropyl Alcohol to thin most of your paints instead of using Mr Leveling Thinner?

[@Scaleaton]

Because it's cheap and works with acrlyics :)

[@bonecos_do_maninho1971]

Excelente

[@HELL_66666]

I cant fing h460,do you have any other suggestion? thanks

[@Scaleaton]

If you have Tamiya Hull Red you can make your own mixture with adding some red, orange etc.

[@HELL_66666]

@@Scaleaton thank you so much, hope that you will build tanks/warship

[@aleccap5946]

The Ghost Knight is out March 2023

[@darksheepvids]

What yellow color's do you use ?

[@Scaleaton]

I can't remember right now but probably it's from RLM series

[@robbleeker4777]

That think looks like it has seen some action. I've seen it also in that diorama you made, with the two girls... How on earth do you get in and out of that thing ? LOL

[@assembly_language3948]

Awesome to see these kits still around. If I could collect and build one series, it would be these. When you were painting the pilot, what did you use to mask off sections?

[@Scaleaton]

Thank you. It's UHU Tac
