Enjoying this project,. Found I've been applying filters incorrectly for a number of years, so thanks for this great tutorial.

Cool video. And.... sorry because I guess I’m going to be a little bit negative. Absolutely, filters are useful but have their place and time to use them. I do use them from time to time, especially when I don’t exactly hit the color/tone I was going for. Personally I want people to look at my models and say, “wow, that looks so real”, and you won’t get that with a patchwork of color tones that the “prototype” or actual object never has. But..... that’s the whole thing with modeling. You do every step how you like. I go for exact representation/realism with very little artistic license because that’s what I like. I guess what I’m saying is that true to life realistic representations do look amazing to some people. And the multi tone/color looks amazing to others. It’s all personal preference and what really matters is that you have fun building and you are pleased with your work and keep building, keep learning & improving, and it doesn’t really matter what other people think about your work.

Wow - who'd of thought magenta with green? To my mind, the way the filters are used reminds me of photo editing, where you increase/decrease between magenta, orange and green to produce more than a clour, but a feel through hue. I found this very helpful. Thank you!

That's handy I got one of these stirrers with a capachino set for xmas guess it's got a new use now rather than the kitchen drawer haha.

Love this video! The tips are certainly very useful. I already feel that the techniques presented in this video will help me in future builds.

You prolly dont care at all but does any of you know of a tool to get back into an instagram account..? I somehow lost my account password. I love any tricks you can offer me.

So do you gloss after the filters then use a wash.

[@MrFirsthour]

is the gunze leveling thinner the same as Mr surfacer leveling thinner

[@Doombot06]

As a new modeller I would like to know which varnish did you use to protect the paint of the weathering ? Or which varnish (in spray or in my airbrush) can I use for my model before the filters and the washes ? Thank you

[@josjawillems3708]

"so this Sherman looks a bit stark, tacky..." Uhhh yeah yeah, I was not at all thinking that those tanks already look like god tier models :)

[@MightyWiggus]

Fantastic video. Thanks! I'm somewhat confused about thinners with oil paints. When I used the standard Windsor Newton turpentine I ate through the clear coat to the paint below. I saw that Rinaldi uses an AK enamel thinner. I didn't know that was possible. I assume they vary in strength. What kind was Dave using?

[@RollingThunderModels]

The paint job and weathering is the most important part indeed. You can make a badly build model look great with a good paint job and proper weathering, but you can also ruin a great build with a bad paint job.

[@colinkavanagh7625]

Top class... Loved the video.. Thank you...

Nice tutorial! Wondering which Sherman is that? (exact model)

[@josjawillems3708]

Just one question: whenever I paint any model, it usually ends up looking very bright. As if the entire finish likes to reflect all the light it can find. Your models however, look as if they more or less absorb the light, like on the manufacturer's site. Can you tell me how you make that work, please?

[@PEGI_man]

have you considered a matt top coat?

[@josjawillems3708]

@@PEGI_man Yes, although I've found out in the meantime that the main difference is: airbrushing :) I was reluctant to try it out, but now that I have, the quality of my work has improved massively. Thank you for replying!

[@gruppenfuhrer45]

Very helpful thank you. I haven't been very clear on how to use filters.

[@mrcarlo1966]

When will Hornet Hobbies have the Gunze Leveling Thinner?

[@torontobarbakan]

Hi You can contact Dave on his website. www.hornethobbies.com/ Thank you.

[@Cameron4077]

what is the sherman's base color?

[@davidgreen5099]

Olive drab, which could vary greatly. Particularly if field applied.

[@davidlagos9877]

plis..subtitule for latinamerica people!!! tanks

[@SheepWaveMeByeBye]

I thought Olive Drab was a brownish colour until the 1960's?
