Let's Build The Last Soviet KV-2 (Tamiya 1/48)

[@slothenthusiast5422]

there's really such a charm to unpainted models. I really love how they look. Amazing job as per usual :3

[@Ivanov_397]

Seeing all of the colors of the different materials together looks so satisfying.

[@JproductionsML]

3:11 ohh the Limp Bizkit reference 🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@mikail281]

Crazy how this tank actually existed. The first time i saw a picture of a KV-2, i thought it was concept art for some game, no way something that funky looking existed once

[@nitzerebbhead]

The turret was so heavy on the KV-2 that they couldn't rotate it if the tank was at too steep an angle.

[@daniilfederov8119]

bro got and adolf eichmann pfp 💀

[@anzaca1]

I know I would be smart enough not to make a tank that struggles to rotate its turret.​@goddoesnotexist5688

[@Maximbaumann]

@goddoesnotexist5688yeah better than whoever designed the KV-2

[@chichaalapomme]

The friday uploads are always a joy! Ever thought of doing scale models of non-military vehicles? I think rally cars would definitely be right up your alley, especially with all the weathering and mud you could apply to one.

[@anzaca1]

I'd like to see him build one of those old Rolls-Royce armoured cars.

[@wang_.]

Maybe one if those bigger motorcycle kits

[@Cussingpenguin]

I’d hope he’d make a kit of the porshe 953 the rally dude’s one that I forgot the name of

[@daspanzer135]

I love it when you make Soviet Tanks! Great Video!

[@mrapka448]

Incredible as always! Also, this Limp Bizkit reference - you truly are a man of culture!

[@thatonetanker1436]

I love your videos, I’ve used so many of your tips and other tutorials on my own tank models, I’ve always wanted to see someone of your talent take on a plane or warship sometime, anyways keep it up Night Shift!

[@gustaflekander718]

uncle nightshift lighting up the weekend

[@loupiscanis9449]

Thank you , Uncle Martin . 🐺

[@samuelrobert4171]

Thank you so much, you were one of my great push to get into model building, and now im currently painting a small m3 lee while watching. I always enjoy your content, keep it up :)

[@katier9725]

As someone who's modified quite a lot of Games Workshop minis in the past, my advice for Greenstuff is that you wet your tools slightly before using it, it helps quite a bit when shaping it.

[@anzaca1]

Now I want NS to build a Leman Russ tank!

[@jacobakana5649]

This is going to be a fun series! I hope the renovations went well, nice job on the modifications! Keeping it simple, but perfectly executed. Nice work!

[@grahamc7283]

I should have added - the geometry of the ground pointed tip of the hypodermic needle is what lets it cut a true round hole more like a cross between a reamer and a D bit drill rather than not so round hole that a twist drill makes and it will also not "grab" the plastic like twist drill does.

[@opheliamoonrose4316]

KV-2 with Uncle Nightshift? Hells' yeah!

[@rasmustuominen3629]

good evening everyone!

[@bigboy1013]

good evening

[@Modkits131]

Ah yes. The king of derp. Or aka the death fridge. Stored with cool vodka in the back of it’s turret. And a 152mm boom stick. I’m so happy to see you finally do this beast.

[@GordPrintsThings]

Thank you. Was looking for something relaxing to watch before writing my exam. Perfect timing!!

[@letsbuildrevell2516]

Nice Build!

[@kingofwingo]

Good to get back to this channel, have watched in a while.

[@PUBHEAD1]

Woohoo. Friday, 1 hour of of the work week left and a new vid from uncle night shift. Great way to start a weekend

[@panzer_modeller]

You inspired me to finish my old Zvezda's KV-1 😄

[@kbproductions2041]

I have been binging your videos as I work on my models, I love the insane amounts of detail you are able to make while I barely make a half decent model.

[@herbies182]

2006 felt like yesterday... nice way of making me feel old

[@panzerwolf494]

That's a beautiful build already without paint. You do the KV-2 justice

[@slendrick]

Last thing i expected to hear - Break Stuff reference, nice one Uncle

[@natureman494]

glad to see a company from my home state is sponsoring you!

[@lesthiele4921]

Greetings Night Shift, that little monster has turned out perfectly, looking forward to the painting episode, best regards mate, from Australia.

[@5tmvgy4k]

Just started driving one of these in Warthunder only last night! Timely 👌

[@russsandbags1967]

Would love a video of all the tools you use for hobby model-kit building! I would love to see your tools and suggestions for new builders - thank you

[@bademusoctavianjuvenal2702]

Can't wait for the painting stuff. I always have some problems with painting, but I like to watch others do it nontheless.

[@theliteralicecreamman]

Ah yes, the Soviet Armoured Fridge, bane of an entire panzer company. Great to see another video from you, Uncle Nightshift. I really respect your craft and the effort you put into it.

[@GingerWaste]

love the limp biscuit reference

[@5udimax]

3:11 lmao I was not expecting a Limp Bizkit reference!

[@gruppenfuhrer45]

You’re truly a professional sir

[@hanssmidt12]

This is what i have been waiting for long

[@steyraug2457]

This was one of my first models, I was probably 10 years old… Now here I am watching a pro building the same model 🤣 such a nice callback seeing it.

[@ScratchBashing]

This tank looks orky. Thank you, uncle!

[@captainhurricane5705]

Your attention to detail on a 1/48 scale model is impressive.

[@philRminiatures]

Wonderful job as always, love your 'traditionnal mixture'...Superb and realistic!

[@garyparker2969]

Just STRAIGHT-UP Amazing Work Uncle NS, Have a Blessed Wknd 👍👍 Gary.

[@grahamc7283]

For drilling 0.3mm hole try using a 30g hypodermic needle and for a pin vise you should really be using a smaller lighter weight pin vise like the Tamiya 74051 Fine Pin Vise for 0.1mm to 1mm bits. Even if you don't try the hypodermic needle, the smaller lighter weight pin vise will result in fewer broken small drill bits

[@stephanmotzek779]

Thank you

[@daily_socialcredits]

Yes, on time this week

[@biberhunter_scale_models]

Really looking forward to your figure painting in 1/48. 👌😬

[@hrexthedoish3419]

My favourite tank Thank u

[@thralldumehammer]

Perspective is a funny thing. I was 28 in 2006 😁 As usual great job!!

[@stephenbridges2791]

That's a very nice result. There was another company that used diecast hulls many years ago. May have been 1/72 Dragon. Can't remember. But, I am going to file that putty recipe away and use it myself. Great job!

[@ZafrielDante]

Mr. Nightshift. For me, you are the best modeler. Could you create a model so that it could not be distinguished from the real one? It's just that all the models seem to be toys anyway, and the eye sees the difference. Is it the effects, the size, or how to create this feeling? You have already called a revolution in the field of modeling with your skills! But maybe one more =)?

[@TheMainCore]

Oh yeah... This will be gooood!

[@alexloones8483]

One of my favourite tanks, hope to see a full diorama.

[@johnnycooper7019]

Dear martin, Outstanding tutorial - thank you! Best Wishes Johnny

[@roadweary5252]

You, Plasmo and Model Nerd uploading on the same day? What a way to end the work week!

[@yuehaowu]

3:36 What’s the music here? I know it’s Katyusha but idk which remix is it.

[@Cat40kkk]

You should try to paint a thunderhawk gun ship bro it’s full of detail

[@danielsteele2217]

Hey nightshift! When will you make a diorama for the T-55? You should make it run over a mini 1/48 car!

[@Powerhungry5000]

Geez dude I LOVE your builds, keep it up you’re awesome!

[@RobertStoneman]

Amazing model! what is that tool you use to apply super glue? thanks for sharing

[@KayserEin]

Looks really good!

[@fatcat3211]

great vid on how quickly you did this! alot of viewers(myself included) sit on kits and rarely build.

[@Mizeriatylkozjogurtem2]

plasmo and night shift upladed in one day!!

[@PureFalcon1]

Adore the KV-2, perfect for turning anything to rubble - bunkers, enemy armor, doesn’t matter, 152mm howitzer will do that.

[@feahternl2702]

Have you ever thought of doing non-armour military vehicles? Like a Dukw, or some other German half-track or so? Love the vids! Keep em coming!

[@GreenAppelPie]

A kit with fully cast parts would be awesome for a tank

[@davegiles2344]

Great build 👍👍

[@Commander254]

Michigan companies represent!

[@thatotherguy7596]

I appreciate how you always make them interesting 🤔😁❤️

[@SOU3118]

I've been watching your content for a while now, and with each video I'm impressed more and more! The vast arrays of modeling techniques, painting methods and subtle kit-bashing is enthralling and completely grabs my attention. It's all so inspiring to me and gives me tons of ideas for things I could do in my free time. Also if you don't mind me asking, what specific is Katyusha is played at 3:36 when the photo of the original basis of the KV-2 is shown?

[@georgewilson5303]

Nice simple build. As usual a grat job. I love it.

[@JedenSiedemDwa]

Look awesome, even without paint. Al the best for You! ;)

[@kiowafourty964]

Hi Night shift! Have you ever considered making/ painting an RC Tank like you do with your models?

[@Eire_Aontaithe]

You're from South Dakota?

[@ArthurGanjei]

New night shift video? Today is a very good day

[@od1452]

I just really like those KVs. Can you tell what and where I can get a rail bender like yours.? It looks perfect.

[@gamingborger]

it's beautiful

[@nickhensel755]

keep up the amazing work!!!

[@nicholasperry2380]

This is a very nice build of an unusual subject. A pleasure to watch. Two Polish (?) companies Part and Aber do some 1/40 stuff too. I've just read Prit Butar's book Battleground Prussia - an excellent read. February 15 1945 the German 507 Heavy Tank Battalion was in the village of Liebenau, Pomerania and destroyed a KV-2 positively identified as such by the witness (pg 245). It could be that very tank as Soviet forces in the area could include Leningrad forces.

[@Icyblade01]

would love to see you use these proper armour techniques on a warhammer 40k tank!

[@OzScalemodeling]

Fantastic video again, thanks for the inspiration 🇭🇲👍

[@grummanf-14tomcat61]

Nice job on the build, I always liked the soviet tanks

[@timstothard5489]

Very helpful video - my question is regarding your discount codes - how about providing those for european purchasing as US shipping costs ARE HIGH...............

[@lunaball2112]

What time is it? KV-2 o'clock :) Nice job on the model, love the channel. Keep up the great work! Cheers!

[@R.Sole88109]

Who knew quickies were just as enjoyable as the regular time length🤣

[@jezzamatic]

I wish I had your attention to detail, I set out with good intentions but then fall at the first hurdle. I would love to see you "make real" a Warhammer 40K tank like a Baneblade or perhaps the new Rogal Dorn tank! I'd love to see you make right the armour detail and scale.... I think you might get a kick out of it adding precision where it is sorely lacking. I'm not a Games Workshop nut, quite the opposite I would just love to see you hit these machines with a stick made of precession and reality. Love your channel.

[@bloodgulchpatrick]

If you have time, try mixing with the Brown Stuff next time. I personally much prefer it to the Green Stuff in mini conversions.

[@mpetersen6]

The KV-2's massive turret just seems to shout, "hey, here I am!"

[@potater6536]

I ❤ the limp bizkit reference 😂

[@Sigmagnat650]

Did Uncle Night Shift just drop a Limp Bizkit reference at 3:07 hahaha?!?!

[@georges.patton4241]

You ever think about doing Creighton Abrams Thunderbolt 7?

[@weddellseal8414]

have you considered making gundums or adding lights and effects to your kits?

[@lieutenanthobbies]

Can you do a backlog review

[@duckman5891]

YESS KV-2 FINALLY

[@FerreusVir]

Uncle Night Shift just made a Limp Bizkit reference, I'm not sure what timeline this is but it just got better.

[@harambecomrade2407]

You really shouldve built the Beast of Raiseniai, wouldve made for an awesome diorama with something like a pz 2 or panzerjager 1 passing beside

[@Cannolibandit939]

Loved it

[@strusiekstrusiek4549]

Great as always. Could you make some modern model next time? Abrams or Challenger

[@pontuswendt2486]

AMAZINGNES!!!

[@devrolijkerodelaar2063]

finally a kv 2 vid hey uncle can u pls show your workbench?

[@marcelwildeboer]

As always damn you are good…..

[@jonathan_0]

I was not prepared for that limp bizkit reference

[@joshuaharlin1214]

What gauge do you usually use for the copper wire handles? and whats that handle bending tool. Thanks for the vids as always Mr. Shift!

[@ModelMinutes]

very nice :D
