Realistic painting in navy submarine -1/350 virginia class submarine

[@camgreen3815]

Great work, but the green growth only goes down a foot or so below the waterline (I served on these ships so know from having to clean them). The rest of the under hull area is generally flat and only lightens when in dry dock and the hull has dried. Not trying to criticize your effort I just wanted to help describe the way the actual ships weather.

[@tomiferromagneticus138]

Perfection... I have never thougt about greenish colours on the sub weathering, thanks for the idea :)

[@DanijelMaodus]

Simply amazing! A piece of finest art!

[@briansonnenfelt7125]

Looks pretty damn good. The only real critique I have is we don’t paint the escape trunks with the white whatever they are. I’ve been on subs since 2005 and have never seen a boat painted with them. But the seaweed skirt looks pretty good. That’s what it will look like after we get underway for a few days following a long maintenance availability in port. I’m going to assume this is a VA class boat stationed in Pearl since that’s pretty close to what they look like here. Well done.

Amazing work. Detail and technique are perfect! Thank you for sharing your skills with us.

[@pastorrich7436]

Amazing results! So, so good!!

[@montigobear]

You took me back to school. I'm going to employ some of your neat tricks on my next model. Thanks for sharing.

[@mikebaginy8731]

A truly masterful build! Weathering made all the difference. Well done (as usual)!

[@gladstream8262]

Me tienes sin palabras, tus habilidades sobresales del resto de modelistas que he conocido

[@scottbuildsthemall5124]

Nice work! I went ahead and subscribed after watching this video. I am glad that you popped up as a recommendation!

[@waynedowney7616]

Looks great. I was on USS Springfield, and I'm disappointed the models never look the way the boats actually looked. This is a welcome change.

[@오상호-f8e]

OMG...you're so talented!

Absolutely Amazing work

Unbelievable! You Sir have skill and talent it is a brilliant finish Thank you for posting

Awesome job, inspiring!

[@carlospuello3128]

Hellos, What colors did you use exactly, what were the proportions

[@giampierocorica3469]

Great work, nice video but, over all, excellent musical choice

[@julianteetzmann1812]

Very Good work! Respect from Germany ⚓️

[@studioblueocean]

Thank you so much!

[@RCSubmarinevideo]

Well done. Too often people will streak the weathering below waterline. You showed a great way to get that splotchy or mottled look needed for below the waterline. Excellent presentation! Only critique is after all that weathering, the prop is shiny. They get weathered too!

[@studioblueocean]

Thank you for pointing it out. I didn't do it because I was too lazy. haha

[@magicstix0r]

Are you putting thinner on the cotton swabs when you blend or just using them dry?

[@matthewcaughey8898]

Subs are deencrusted far more often then other ships. Plus the hull paint is chemically active so that stuff can’t grow on it. The Navy spends a lot of money to be sure the sub fleet is ready to rock at 100 percent 24/7

[@Absolutecorn5767]

Not to mention the coating on the subs would make rust formation nearly impossible. Almost no metallic elements are exposed on the hull

[@matthewcaughey8898]

@@Absolutecorn5767 some rust does appear but those are typically sacrificial anodes. Pieces of metal designed to rust first and protect the hull. They’ve been a feature on most steel hull ships since the beginning

[@daniel_sc1024]

You guys that do that make it look so easy...but I know it isn't. 👍

[@jowe8039]

Very helpful. Thank you very much!

[@briancates3576]

Outstanding work. Two things I noticed though. 1) The waterline is too level. Submarines usually have a natural 1-3 degree up angle while surfaced. You can sort of see what I’m talking about in that first picture of the Dallas. 2) The non-skid should be a bit wider across the deck. I was also hoping you were going to paint the subtle lines that define the edges of the SHT tiles. But still, beautifully done.

[@briansonnenfelt7125]

Brian Cates I came looking to see if he did the same with the SHT. I’m building the ustafish (Greeneville) and was hoping he had a better idea than I do, which is placing Tamiya Tape all across it to give it the tiles and texture…kinda. But it looks like that’s probably my only option.

[@TheC1kabar]

Excellent point.

[@routman28]

English Subtitles disappear too quickly !!! ☹️

[@JedenSiedemDwa]

So great result I must try! All the best for You! ;)

[@mattpierre891]

I realize Im kind of randomly asking but do anyone know a good site to stream new movies online ?

[@blakepablo5111]

@Scott Elon Try FlixZone. You can find it on google =)

[@tateemmett3846]

@Blake Pablo definitely, I have been using Flixzone for since march myself :D

[@scottelon2837]

@Blake Pablo Thank you, I went there and it seems to work :) I really appreciate it !!

Amazing!

Nice job!!

[@modkitmayhem]

Just found your channel! Great video's - cheers

[@terryg6596]

Hi I have been looking at other work of yours and greatly admire your technique,I,m currently working on the USS Nimitz and will use your ideas for a sea diorama,can you use enamel on top of acrylic paint for weathering ? thankyou for your inspiration

[@Emmaloveponys]

항상 즐겁게 감상하고 있습니다. 다만 댓글이 전부 영어인듯해서 한글로 댓을 쓰기 좀 어색하...암튼 고퀄의 영상 항상 감사드립니다

[@Belzediel]

Worth noting (might have missed a comment of course) but the tidelines would only be on a submarine that's been at dock for a fair while. Once underway the first dive would usually be plenty deep enough to blow all that crepe right off the anechoics.

[@jonL88]

Extreme makeover!

[@morphous]

미술을 배우신 분인가요? 아니면 프라모델 취미로만으로 이렇게 하시는건가요? 너무 멋있습니다.

[@studioblueocean]

미술쪽이랑 관련이 없다곤 말을 못드리겠네요. 감사합니다!

[@koshie66]

nice looking sub

[@studioblueocean]

Thank you!

[@NorthForkFisherman]

The paint job is excellent. However, I think you were a bit shortchanged by the model itself. That's a PCU (pre-commissioning unit) and that's why you have all those surface details like conduits and what have you. The acutal surface would be MUCH SMOOTHER due to all the anechoic tiles covering everything in sight. Take a look at the Bronco SSN-21 Seawolf class for an idea of what the surface would actually be like. You can get that same surface here by either sanding down the excess or by layering on sheet styrene of a very thin make.

[@zastronomer7592]

tip:try matte black for sumbarines

[@craftpaint1644]

When the title said realistic painting in a Navy submarine I thought it was a cut away display of interior.

[@sciekimike280]

more subs!!!

[@MrJuvefrank]

Anybody who buys a model submarine is Popeye the Sailor.

[@strik3agle316]

That's a lot of black wash.
