The KV-2 is definetely iconic, but a German one isn't something you see often

[@marino8034]

I love this channel. I love the techniques and methods you use and the fact that you brush paint your models. They have a distinct look which is great and refreshing to see especially now. Beautiful work.

[@Modkits131]

Thank you, I greatly appreciate your compliment. I’m very happy to hear that you enjoy my brush painting content. :D

[@baxternieto833]

I too make My models with brush painting and i inspire from ur models yo do them 👍

[@SteveJonesScaleModellingSite]

Another cracking build and great work with the hairy stick. Luv it!

[@Modkits131]

Thank you my friend, I’m very happy with the way this one turned out. :D

Hi, newbie brush painter here. I'm doing trumpeter t-34/85 right now. And i couldn't decide whether i can make a winter camo or not. I was watching videos about hair sprey techiques and more. But your techique is simple yet perfect. I think i definitely try it.

[@Modkits131]

Nice. A winter camo on a Soviet T-34 is always glorious. Thank you. :D

[@igorsevcov4081]

👌👍

[@theartificerchannel2110]

Again some expert weathering ideas and techniques! would love to see you create a diorama!

[@daeds.paints]

Brush for the win!

[@nikolicrastko9281]

Finally a new video yay

[@dev1sko817]

Nice work ! I love the result 🔥🔥

[@hanssmidt12]

I will be making a German kv2 as well on my Channel but in 1/48 scale and from hobby bos

[@Modkits131]

Oh cool that sounds like it will be some fun. :)

[@joramamodellbau3987]

Great result, especially in the small scale. Very well executed model of the KV II with a well made weathering in this winter camouflage pattern. Best wishes, Joachim

[@MrBMBuilder]

That is one weathered KV-2 but I like it :)

[@greggprocter6098]

Great results with the weathering! I really enjoy your brush techniques. Impressive in such a small scale. I would like to see more 35th scale models from you.

[@Modkits131]

Yes, I do have some 1/35 scale models in my stash. Expect them in the future. Thank you. :D

[@ScaleMilitaryModels]

Nice work, your brush painting skills are phenomenal! Remember, they painted the white over every thing including jerry cans and spare tracks.

[@Modkits131]

Thanks man, I appreciate it so much. I always enjoy the constructive criticism from you, especially helping me on my models. :D

[@ScaleMilitaryModels]

You have come a very long way! Glad I could help! Have a nice evening

[@NereoSal]

Superb job as always! How many coats of the initial grey did you apply?

[@Modkits131]

Just three or five layers of the dark grey paint. :)

[@hanssmidt12]

I still do not understand why you paint models by brush 10 Times better than with airbrush i will never get this effect with airbrush

[@Modkits131]

Thank you, I appreciate that you enjoy my brush painting skills on my models. :)

[@BennyCFD]

His technique is to just slather it on and it becomes a masterpiece...................................

[@Svemirsky]

Beginner here ✋🏻Question: do you use wet palette? And how much do you thin your paints? I don't have an airbrush so my inspiration comes from videos like these, thanks for the instructions 😊

[@Modkits131]

Sometimes I’ll use a wet pallet for painting details and chipping the model. A good ratio to follow for thinning paints is 1 drop water to 7 drops of paint. :-)

[@Svemirsky]

@@Modkits131 wow, thanks for the quick reply! 😊 I bought zvezda t34 in 1/35, made a list of vallejo paints and got a notebook for tips& tricks - and now I just hope that I woun't screw it up completely😄 anyway have a happy and successful new year and we'll be watching your next projects 😊

[@Modkits131]

Good luck my friend, I hope you have some fun with painting your T-34. Thank you and same to you. :-)

[@andys1824]

What kind of soap do you use for your washes? Do you use any varnish to protect your painting/weathering? Thanks

[@Modkits131]

I use a pump bottle, with soap from equate. I’ll generally only varnish my painting. Meaning only the camouflage layer to help seal it before applying a wash. :)

[@andys1824]

@@Modkits131 Thanks. What varnish do you use? Do you apply it with a handbrush?

[@Modkits131]

I generally use satin varnish from Vallejo and do apply it by brush. :)

[@hankthefarmer4433]

I see you also put the wheels on first and then paint them, I watched you do the same with the HobbyBoss Sherman 8 months ago. My question is how do you paint in between and behind the wheels, you know the hard to reach parts. Because I try to get in there with a brush and just jam it on there. Maybe you have some tips?

[@Modkits131]

I use an angled brush to help me reach into those hard to reach corners, or try to paint those areas black before attaching any parts on the model. Example my 1/48 scale Sherman suspension. :)

[@hankthefarmer4433]

@@Modkits131 Thanks for your answer, excited for you next video. Keep up the good work:)

[@garyjust.johnson1436]

I would like to get one of these tank kits in 1/72 scale. Where do you buy your models from? Our local hobby stores do not stock a large quantity of kits, and usually only ONE of any given model so they sell out fast.

[@Modkits131]

I mainly get all my models from my local hobby shop. But if I’m looking for a specific model I’ll make a special order.

[@russouk]

Have you tried 7/1 paint / retarder?...I watched guy brush paint that ratio and gets same effect plus the extra drying time allowance?....still going to try your slap it on methods...as posted in other vid,like your slap it on and no fuss approach...I find if you fuss paint thats when things go wrong...I regard ur vics on brushing...best on yt tyb for the hints etc

[@Modkits131]

I don’t have to use the retarder, because I personally enjoy the fast drying time. Also because of the soap being mixed in with my acrylic washes. :)

[@MVeminor7]

Its a new Modkits video. what a great way to start the day. I really like your brush work. I'm a brush painter too. Thanks for making videos!!
