"All Quiet In The West..." - Maschinen Krieger WW1 Diorama (Melusine 1/20)
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
My friends, Maschinen Krieger has been one of the most requested subjects on this channel, but it's finally here! I wanted to put my own spin on this esoteric genre, and an armored mech suit in WW1 trenches seemed right up my alley!
These models are a wonderful blend between armor and figures. You can use every weathering technique known in the armor modelling world yet the shape of the model makes it feel like a scale figure. And they are great relaxing subjects - a suit like this can be efficiently finished in 3 days!

Im loving the longer well edited content and the face to face intros. I hope your doing well and doing the models you really want to do.
🤔 This is one of the only YT Channels I actually watch at *Normal Playback Speed.*
Wow, I'm glad to see new things on this channel, it would be great to see more like this.

Agreed. There are more than enough tank/armor only modelers on KZread, it’s nice to see modelers using kits like these.

i would love to see him do an imperial knight from warhammer
I'm really enjoying the 30+ minute videos you've been doing recently! The worst part about a Night Shift video is when it ends, so I'm glad that I can watch for longer before that happens. Great video as always!
"a suit like this can be efficiently finished in 3 days"... meanwhile I'm 6 months into my MK44 build 🤣. Awesome as usual Martin. Absolutely love this man. Guarantee we will start seeing more seems on the under-suit of Ma.K kits.

How's the Mk 44? That's the one I wanted to build initially!

It's a lot of fun and goes together pretty well. Some of the interior parts on the inside of the 'cockpit' gave me a little trouble but pretty sure that was on me. I think you would love it. Give it that WW2 Soviet super heavy cast look.

@@NightShiftScaleModels id love to see something painted in another light level or even at night instead of in daylight
Hi Martin, GREAT video and finish. Congratulations on your first Maschinen Krieger model and thank you very much for the kind mentions. Sincerely appreciated!!
This was an excellent episode! Love the concept.

Wow! I never though to see you here @Boylei Hobby Time lol, btw loved your most recent vid 😎👌
That is glorious! I'm a huge Ma.K fan and I've used your armor techniques on my figures and it's a joy to see you paint one of these awesome models!
This was so awesome, I really hope you branch out into more sci-fi or fantasy stuff on occasion more in the future.
From the thumbnail I thought this was Boylei Hobby Time. It's awesome to see something more in the historical fantasy genre from you.
Gotta say I would love to see you tackle a WH40K Imperial Guard tank, I bet it would look fantastic with all the techniques you use to make these scale models look realistic.
The Return of the King!
Rule of cool should win out everytime when modeling for fun! Glad to see you enjoying yourself with projects like these!
Loved it. I like the format of the entire build and finish process in one video. It was worth the wait!
This model made a nice change of subject. And the ww1 setting actually fits super well.
adding mud on one side from where the suit may of come in contact with the wall(s) might have been a nice touch. Very nice work overall. You never disappoint.
absolutely loving the blend of realistic and weird-sci fi! Please do more of that stuff
This is mind-blowing! The discipline and patience that you dedicated to the details really paid off. I hope this project opens the idea of you doing more mechs in this style in the future.
I've missed you, uncle nightshift. But , oh boy, it was well worth waiting for! It was really nice to watch you step out of your comfort zone.
Have you ever considered including battle damage? Stuff like bullet impacts or scratches? Things that cut a little deeper than the weathered look. Great vid as always!
Each video we getting closer and closer to WH40k dioramas and I'm waiting patiently...
One of my favorites ever! Love all kinds of alternate history/fictional history. Very inspiring!
I love these scifi, yet historical diorama's! Great job

I'd love to see him tackle a 40k model. Seeing a guard tank being given the full weathering and modeling treatment would be amazing. Or seeing how he makes a Space Marine tank a bit more grounded would also be really cool to see.
finally a really good acrylic painting tutorial on Ma. K, and not friggin lacquer paint! great video!
I love seeing these historical modelling techniques used on SciFi models. I'd be fascinated to see how you would paint something like an Imperial Knight from 40k.
like how you combine WW1 battlefield scenes with combat robots.
Hi Martin, small chance you will ever see this but I hope you do. It was you who got me into modeling in late 2022. 6 months, a Panzer IV, Pz. 38(t), Churchill 7, and Panther later, I’m loving it. Thank you so much.
Thank you , Uncle Night-shift . 🐺
I wish the video was longer!! This is an awesome concept and execution!!
I've been waiting on a Ma.K kit on your channel and you knocked it out of the park. Amazing build and fits the theme beautifully. Thanks for the video
Great finish my friend! And no worries on the "fuel cap" 😂 maybe they welded a fuel rod in there and called it a day. Less wasted time in the maintenance yard- more time shooting panzerfäusts that appear like farts on the battlefield. I am glad you leaned into this project and had fun with it, it looks absolutely epic in your style and you made the kitbash decals seamlessly integrated into the vehicle. I believe most of these original kits from the early days took decals from scale aircraft kits, so no doubt the lore accurate essence of Ma.K lives on. See you in the next one
honestly man at first when the weekly uploads stopped I was disappointed but this was really worth the wait, cant wait for the next one.
This new convention is really relaxing, joy to watch
Great video Martin. I'd never considered it before, but yes, MaK looks really good in a WWI setting and colour scheme. Take care and enjoy the spring weather!
I really love the mix of dieselpunk and treanch warfare, something about it just makes so much sense to me
One of the best examples of “rule of cool”
Hell yeah! Been waiting to see you build some Ma.k.!!!
As a fan of Steam Punk and related genres, I love it. It is inspiring me to pick this hobby back up. Thank you!
This is *SO AWESOME!* Please do more "Alt-history" mech-model dioramas. 😃👍
These are honestly the best modeling videos on KZread
I've only ever painted fantasy models and watching videos of others doing the same. Your work is on a totally different level! Definitely an entertaining and informative watch my friend
Me and my son are fans and we enjoy and learn so much from you. We like so much the my friends part
Love the MaK world. Outstanding weathering as always...
First time to see your video. I can't believe the detail and results of your work. The sandbags, the paint, the groundwork. Amazing. Definitely subscribing.

Is this for real? Or a scam?
I learn so much from your videos that I take into tabletop miniatures and just my bases alone are way better and my aspirations are ever-growing.
This is awesome! Please do more Ma.K, it's such a cool subject and you've absolutely nailed it.
Those sandbags are soooo well done. 👍👌 the rest of awesome too. But that really stood out to me.
Holy cow this is so good. I am loving the juxtaposition of your ww1 stuff mixed with futuristic mechs. It’s a combination of two of my favorite areas of modeling. I was just so pleased to see this video. Love your stuff
I forgot how good it feels to hear MUH friends!
I find these small dioramas really fascinating. They force you to focus on a very small space and you get inside it. Simply brutal Martin!!!

I appreciate how much you always think of us when talking the video
Absolutely incredible!
"All good things come to those that wait" and my friend you are always worth waiting for. How you can make such an unbelievable scene so beautifully believable is awesome! Stay true to your passion and don’t ever let time restraints destroy the beauty you deliver each and ever time. I would rather wait 6 months to be able to share in you’re journey of building models than expect them every week or two. Live the passion.
I've learned almost everything I know about painting from your channel, except I've been applying it to fantasy mech suits and Gundams rather than tanks and planes. I've come to a point where I'm able to somewhat reproduce the metal and wood weathering effects showcased in these videos, but watching you tackle this side of the hobby still leaves me in awe.
unbelievable work, looks fantastic
I always say Martin does the best videos and I look forward to watching him work. The great thing is that he always inspires me to try A new technique and have fun doing it. Thank "My Friend"
your ground work just blows me away every time.
Like a shot of morphine….your videos chill me out, first voice I hear in the week that isn’t stressed or that doesn’t want anything. Thank you!
What a wonderful piece of work!!
Glad to see you consulted Lincoln's work. The diorama turned out great!
So glad to see your newest video article! Love your work.
Excellent work. Really enjoyed the change of subject. Glad you're back.
This was an absolute pleasure to watch. Your attention to details, lighting, and colors is always a joy to see. Blending these two concepts together into a cohesive diorama worked really well. I'm a huge fan of alternate war histories and this works so well together!
The scratch flex cable, the sculpted sandbags, artistry above and beyond. Reminded me of bomb disposal suits, could see life imitating art at some point once battery technology improves.
Love it! And I really enjoy the new format!!!
Dude, those sandbags are INSANELY GOOD!
Glad to see you back! Great work as always.😊
This was definetly worth the wait! I love what you are doing with the new format.
Wake up babe, new Nightshift video
Finally!!!! Always look forward to your videos
Probably your best video yet. And the build is absolutely amazing
Excellent video! Thank you for the longer and great quality of video.
Kool. I like this sci-fi armor direction.
Just perfect, love the humer along with the skill .Thanks .
Right up my alley since I love both WW1 and MK. Great job, Glad I came across this.
For me, it's always worth the wait for your next project. Except when you build the small scale stuff. Enjoyed this outing with Uncle Night Shift.
I LOVE this build! The corrugated metal sheets with their various finishes look so incredibly realistic, and the mud is absolute perfection. I am also very happy to wait for content that you had a good time creating without the stress of a restrictive schedule.
This was awesome! Do more of this!!
Awesome work! Totally worth the wait!
I really appreciate how realistic, vivid and ultra focus the video looks, heck it looks more color correct than real life.
Another incredible model. Thanks for sharing it.
This is my new favorite one. What a treat!
Simply Outstanding.
This is awesome! I love 'What If...' projects and alternative timeline Sci-Fi so this is exactly my deal and I hope to see more of this type of projects in the future! Also I wanted to say I really enjoy your new schedule and the 30+ minutes format of your videos. It is a huge joy to see one of your videos popping up suddenly and you know it's almost an hour of pure goodness!
Love the longer content even though the videos aren’t as frequent as they used to be. I can see you growing as an artist with every new project and it’s wonderful to see. Keep pushing yourself out of your comfort zone to learn new skills. Your work is amazing!
Thats a looong video my dude!!! Hope you feel better with that schedule. For me it does not matter when/how often, will watch anyway. Most important thing is enjoying what you do everyday. Take care and thanks for your insights
Now this is incredible.
Klank klank boom boom klank. Just love this genre and style.
Excellent! A work of art.
Thanks so much for the running commentary, explaining in detail what you did, as well as explaining (sometimes) what you didn't do and why.. It's a fantastic piece of art, from a ultra-skilled craftsman (you). Thanks for sharing.
This looks funky as hell, love it. Great work and great to see you back
This was a great project! Thank you dearest uncle!
love it Martin, that's the beauty of our hobby, you can do whatever you like and as long as it makes you happy it's great. There's always stuff to learn from folk who build models for different genres and the cross over of skills is great fun. Loved this video pal. Stay cool. Love the new format too.
That is fantastic work!
