Let's Build a WARHAMMER TANK... The Armor Modeler Way!
My friends, let's try to paint a Warhammer Sicaran Battle Tank using some standard armor weathering techniques - hairspray chipping, post shading, enamel washes, rust effects painted with oil paints, and LAYERS of mud running down the sides!

Let's Build: Realistic Rusty Train Diorama!
Переглядів 133 тис.Місяць тому
My friends, railroad dioramas are a completely different miniature world than historical military sceneries, but they can be made using the same construction and painting methods! Tonight we'll look at a recent release from AK - the Breuer IV rail shunter in 1/35th scale. I found a reference image so intriguing that I've based the entire scene on it. These small happy projects are simply the be...
"Monkey Business" - Saipan 1944 Diorama
Переглядів 90 тис.2 місяці тому
My friends, the Pacific Theatre of Operations allows us to explore very different landscapes than we're used to in European dioramas. Each island has a specific scenery, some are covered in a thick jungle, others are more grassy and some, such as Iwo Jima, don't have any palm trees. For this diorama, I wanted to combine tall palm trees, a reasonably thick foliage (so the tank would be still vis...
Painting Military Themed Easter Eggs!
Переглядів 38 тис.3 місяці тому
My friends, painting Easter Eggs is a tradition I never really participated in, so this year I decided to give it a try - and, of course, I chose a color palette I'm most familiar with, so let's paint a US Army Egg from Normandy, a German Egg from Kursk 1943, and a Soviet Egg from Berlin 1945!

My friends, painting a Sherman doesn't have to be always about the same old Olive Drab! On this model, we'll tackle a hand-applied ochre camouflage on the tank's turret, we'll try some post shading on top of that, and we'll play around with all those traditional weathering techniques. But most importantly, we'll paint a realistic aged wood finish on top of planks made from styrene! Patreon: www...

My friends, miniature buildings are a very exciting part of any diorama. They offer us many exciting and different textures, and a whole new bunch of painting and weathering techniques! But their biggest downside is their size, and soon enough we can start running out of space. So why not take the best out of this concept and put it in a picture frame?

The Biggest Diorama I've Ever Built! Watermill in 1/35 Scale

My friends, sometimes you design a diorama around the model, and sometimes you choose a model for the diorama. This was the latter case because a truck loaded with sacks of flour sounded perfect for a large diorama with a water mill. This is definitely the most complex diorama I've done so far, featuring pretty much every texture you can imagine - bricks, rocks, old wood, grass, dry ground, a c...

Build A Simple Scenic Display Stand For Modern Armor
Переглядів 120 тис.9 місяців тому
My friends, here's a simple example of a miniature (although large in size) vignette suitable for armor models. This one depicts an urban environment, but on a very limited space, and because of that, I wasn't able to tell the story using buildings. Instead I tried to implement other features from our everyday lives to give it more character. It's a lot of fun, so if you have some modern armor ...

Переглядів 223 тис.9 місяців тому
My friends, painting a modern armor model is very different from historical tanks. Of course, it depends on many factors, especially if it was deployed, but on a peacetime vehicle, your weathering possibilities are often limited to earth effects. Luckily, these vehicles get extremely dirty, and what's better, there's a weird urban camouflage made from old rags and wooden pallets! Patreon: www.p...

    To help with your next one, Space marine vehicles [and definitely their armor] are plated with ceramite. Which is a cast ceramic polymer, not rolled steel.

    You "broke" one game rule, and that is that for the tank to be game-legal the sponson weapons must be the same on both sides - you can't have a Lascannon on one side and a Volkite Cannon on the other. BTW, in the 40k verse vehicles can date one hell of a lot older than a mere 100 years. The oldest references I can find would be Bjorn the Fell Handed (well, technically he's a Dreadnought and it's unclear whether the Dreadnought hull has been replaced over time, but the Space Marine has been connected to the life support sarcophagus for close to 10 000 years), another unnamed Dreadnought which the Tau determined has been in active service for around 6000 years, Nocturne's Hammer (technically an APC, 8000 years in service). Some of the vehicles used by the Chaos Space Marines also date to the Heresy (10 000 years) but due to the mutating nature of Chaos they're hardly normal machines any more.
