Let's Paint Some Stowage! And Other Finishing Touches... Panzer II Restoration - Part 3 (Final)

[@asdfasdf1397]

Night Shift, Plasmo and Bovington tank museum all post on the same day. Is this heaven?

Yes, yes it is😇

Literally just watched all of them lmao.... It's a good day

One small element I really appreciated . . . the white bowls in your stowage. They look incredibly interesting and ultra-authentic!

[@NightShiftScaleModels]

Those were a spontaneous idea... like, what else could I 3D model and print? Bowls, I could paint them white and add some rust and chipping (chipping everywhere!)

[@jilthunder2276]

Agree 100%!!!

[@Jyjtjjtn_33df]

Jerry’s gotta get those cornflakes in somehow

[@keepitrusty]

@@NightShiftScaleModels I love them! Were the chips done with a brush?

[@markc7002]

Those "metal" bowls are true works of art, unbelievable skills! Actually, all the stowage is!

[@jamiedale6516]

Plasmo + Night Shift = an AWESOME Friday

[@kaferrat]

That first tarp turned out fabulous! Love the different shading techniques. All the stowage looked so good...all the little details. 😎

[@jaredikin455]

Night shift, would you consider doing a tank in the rain? With water pooling everywhere?

[@Adamant_Consternation]

Oh I like!

[@bageled_meme2690]

Ooh I like!

[@willy2776]

a thin layer of Elmers glue, will look like water when dried.

[@NightShiftScaleModels]

Proper wet effects fluid would be probably a better idea than wood glue :)

[@sepp1781]

Mod Podge does this.

[@highdarktemplar]

I think those yellow stripes on the old version were quite interesting, of course this restored version is superior. Awesome video as always.

[@NightShiftScaleModels]

Yeah, they were inspired by a not-so-accurate camouflage profile from some Polish publication. I kinda wanted to do the same camouflage all over again, but everyone on Patreon agreed on a plain grey camo :)

[@P-47D_theJug]

You plasmo NMB primed model works are the best of the best. Plus Max’s models. Such good channels thanks for you hard work. You guys are modeling gems. Great stuff my friend

[@uncleheavy6819]

Love your stuff, Night Shift. Outstanding work as always. I have the answer to your observation about bright silver weld lines and why they didn't rust.....armour plate was welded with stainless steel. Ordinary steel welds would crack as they cooled. For some reason, stainless steel does not crack when used to weld armour plate. Keep up the good work.

[@marckrier9424]

Fantastic work! The colour contrast on the stowage is sooooo nice, between the different warm greens, the white plates and grey jerrycans! Over all fantastic job once again!

[@АндрейХодик]

Bro, you are a Genius!!!! Bravo!!!!

[@OneofInfinity.]

Your love for tarps is very evident on/in this restoration.

[@user-vs5dt5ui3i]

awesome and educational as always

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Aaaaaaaa, my Night Shift fix for Friday !!!!!!!!!! Great vid, looks really nice 👍😉🙂👌

[@davidgolinsky]

One of, if not the greatest builds I've ever seen to date. The stowage detail is awesome!

[@ninus17]

i would like to see you build a danish centurion, they were a little different to the ones the brits used, amongst other things they did was to add a bustle rack made in denmark. or perhaps an m41 walker bulldog, again with the danish modifications. they had a very distinct bustle rack and an IR spotlight, they also tended to wrap camo netting around the barrel and turret. i think it would be a cool project for a man of your skill :)

[@ScottKenny1978]

Basket? You mean the thing on the back of the turret? That's the bustle rack. The turret basket is inside the tank.

[@ninus17]

@@ScottKenny1978 oh right. fixed it. thanks

[@ScottKenny1978]

@@ninus17 no problem! I figured it was a translation glitch.

[@wenyidong8563]

Finally found the best tutorial on painting stowage! Just finished my Panzer IV G DAK version, so Tunisia Grocery Store will be on business soon

[@oldboynicko2485]

Just love looking at your work. Got back into military modeling after a break of 30 years just because of your video's. Spent about £400 over the last year on paints and kits but its worth every penny. Please don't stop, an inspiration to us all

[@coinsmith]

I always enjoy your voice. You sound like you would be a pleasant person to know.

[@ariochiv]

The paint job on those rusted white bowls in the stowage is... sublime.

[@sclogse1]

Always a pleasure. I'm able to get a cloth surface texture on plastic or resin by dry brush. To give it a raised blanket thickness past this level a real rust coating to then dry brush over.

[@jrh2u]

The stowage looks absolutely great!

[@robertthompson1993]

Another great piece of work! My favourite detail is definitely the little enamel bowls.

[@mitchellsumpter4807]

I’m always impressed!!!

[@hussar1681]

I wonder would you do an halftrack as one of your next projects. Or another 'less armored' vehicle that's mostly open. It could be an interesting experience!

[@NightShiftScaleModels]

Why not just a military truck :) I just need to empty my stash a little bit before I buy something new

[@SuperDeinVadda]

@@NightShiftScaleModels what is the thinking behind collecting a stash of models? Sure enough you can only build one at a time.

[@NightShiftScaleModels]

@@SuperDeinVadda for me personally it used to be the fear of missing out. like, what if the kit won't be available anymore? and also planning ahead... so when I already had the kit, I could also order tracks, photoetch etc. Nowadays I don't buy that many new kits and when I do I usually build them immediately (that was the case with the BMR-3M)

[@johnnycooper7019]

Dear Martin, Outstanding work on vehicle. I especially loved your approach on the tarps!

[@gavinbooth]

A real balance to the weathering and the stowage nice one ! Regards Gav.

[@The_White_House]

That is the best restoration of a model I've ever seen you should try something with digital camo

[@ScottKenny1978]

I'm thinking Berlin Brigade camo on a Centurion or Chieftain.

[@The_White_House]

@@ScottKenny1978 yeah that looks pretty awesome it would be cool to see because it's colors not usually seen on tanks

[@raycoe9470]

Amazing! Absolutely stunning. I fell upon this site ... and I am going to try to make a model.... love the attention to detail.

[@lesthiele4921]

Hi Martin, you have done a fabtastic job on the Panzer III, take care and keep safe, best regards from Australia

[@timothyewing]

I like the reworked version more!! Another wonderful project!! GREAT Jib😁👍

[@timothyewing]

Job that is🤦‍♂️

[@ferbieticklater7429]

I just love watching your projects come to life. The attention to detail is amazing and yet simple but the final result is mind-blowing. I always look forward to my Night Shift vids. Keep up the great work and stay safe my friend.

[@paralipsis]

The switch at the end from the old paint job to the restoration created a kind of optical illusion for me. The increased detail and restraint on the individual effects made it look like it was a larger scale model.

[@fredericksmith5235]

Looks really good, can't wait to see the diorama.

[@andrewdeboer7435]

I think that gorgeous wooden stowage box is going to fall off the tank, along with the tarp on top of it. I love your work. Always trying new things and always working very small. Many lessons to take away from each video. Cheeers!

[@rudyvalle9022]

It's done! It's beautiful!

[@truereaper4572]

Seeing how the initial mud effects looked a lot like dust/sand really makes me want to see you do some sort of North Africa Front related model

[@Mavrik289]

The stowage looks GREAT! :)

[@tomtruesdale6901]

Your stowage work is looking great. Don't short change yourself or your ability.

[@styrenehelp]

I love the new look. Fantastic work. You make it look so easy.

[@cowerdnerddespacito9518]

I Pimp mien panzer sounds like a cool show where they save abandoned rusted tanks and restore them then add in stereos and massaging seat for the whole crew and a nice paint job

[@stefanoscaccianoce2812]

always excellent quality of the videos (as you like modelers) I really appreciated your way of doing the oil and gasoline effects

[@Vincent-gc8zd]

Wow! Fabulous paint job. I'm feeling really inspired to make my next build a German grey vehicle now so Uncle Night Shift, you are truly inspirational.

[@garylawless3608]

This is a brilliant job Uncle! I really enjoyed this restoration project, and the final result did not disappoint. Keep them coming, as we all wait in anticipation for each new post. Cheers from Australia!

[@gaborkormos7715]

I would love to see a destroyed tank build sometime

[@fedjagalperin9565]

Brilliant mate - being an early war model, maybe decals on the steel helmets would have been nice. Looking forward to your next project. Cheers Fedja

[@NightShiftScaleModels]

Yeah, another thing I need to buy for future projects! :)

[@SBennett-70sKid]

Big improvement over the original model! I love the white porcelain bowls you made, they really set the time frame in a very subtle way.

[@kevinjohnson8220]

You're right about rust effects on Panzer grey and that's why I found getting the rust effects on my mill scale T-34 to be so easy.

[@waynebeattie2230]

A big improvement. Nice work.

[@OlmoWTF]

While I'm unaware of your stance towards Warhammer 40k stuff, I'd really love to see your take on on one of the tanks in WH40k. The really cartoony proportions of the tanks in the game combined with your insane realistic detailing could be really fun.

[@lennartkarrman2009]

[@dirtyd2316]

Now this makes me want to go dig out some of my older crap models that didnt turn out that great. I know I have two or three of these panzer 2’s in there as well.

[@JJ-oi6ft]

GREAT work as always :).....................

[@garoscale2587]

awsome details mate !! now i want build one!

[@ukaszrugaa104]

As usual, great job 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@hanspeter-qj9nx]

Night shift is it possible that you can use the vallejo color for airbrush for sponge chipping? Or do you need the normal vallejo paint type

[@ScottKenny1978]

The Model Air colors are a lot thinner and don't cover as well.

[@timodeporto686]

Leave it for an hour en most of the moist is evaporated, making the paint a lot thicker, so making them brush paintable and also sponge paintable. Works for mig and ammo paints too

[@pietro28h]

O it looks sick good job man

[@jamesgordley5000]

Restored looks better, but I really like the way the older ones' colors played with my eyes.

[@CNSFX]

Looks great!

[@aaronwhite1786]

Interesting order on the green canvas painting. I always went the opposite way when painting miniatures. I'd go darkest up to lightest...buuuut, my steadiness sucks, so I would always mess it up if I tried going light to dark.

[@paulreppa1768]

Nice work!

[@SprueFascinationChannel]

3:15 Impressive bowl, Martin. 👏

[@Arno_L]

"It doesn't look so bad" no, it looks just amazing!

[@jonL88]

A model example of perfection 👌🏻🥃

[@slipknotrock789]

You should make an short barrel panzer 4 in grey to go with it, maybe in some long grass

[@MuskyJaeger19]

Time to shake things up with an open top vehicle like a half track or tank destroyer! An armored car would be cool also.

[@NightShiftScaleModels]

I'm so tempted to build the new Archer from Tamiya, but it's such an ugly vehicle :D

[@negotiableaffections]

Astounding!

[@TheTrainer1972]

Have you tried working with the Citadel Contrast and Shade colors?

[@dirtydandinoman8902]

I have a question. Pick one of your best 1/35 models. If you were to sell it, what price would you have it at?

[@NightShiftScaleModels]

Why sell it when I can restore it after 10 years? :D

[@The_Modeling_Underdog]

@@NightShiftScaleModels That's a proper modeler's answer. Hoard those models, Martin! Great video.

[@lftucson]

Wow, Amazing

[@Foamypeon]

With your focus on historical armor, have you ever considered tackling fantasy or sci fi armor? Like Warhammer 40k tanks

[@bigg1452]

I'd love to see him step out of his comfort zone and do something like a Baneblade as a one off. Could be very interesting

[@NightShiftScaleModels]

Fantasy armor... are there any wooden tanks? :)

[@commanderfluff]

@@NightShiftScaleModels If the "Sharotank" counts as a tank, a warhammer doomwheel may qualify as a wooden tank.

[@LtCmdrRedShirt]

you put yourself down too much, though im not a tank guy, more ship guy, i love your videos

[@timothyperrigoue3997]

Those white enameled bowls add so much humanity: You KNOW Hans und Fritz used them while peeling potatoes!

[@AirbrusherStudio]

amazing ! i learn alot from your video

[@jkoeberli]

looks great, although the the old paint job didn't need a rework :)

[@NightShiftScaleModels]

But it had a damaged track :)
