Hey mates, don't wanna be a debbie downer, but that Tiger from this video... I won't finish it anytime soon :( It would be one of those massive projects and I wouldn't have time for that right now. But don't be sad, there are German cats and other animals coming to this channel in the near future!!! Some of them small, others quite big... :)

Pure genius! Got in this rabbit hole coz I want to build a diorama as a gift, I only paint rpg and board game miniatures, but I spent the last week or so only watching modeling videos. You guys are true masters!

I don’t always watch videos about scale modeling...but when I do, I watch Night Shift.

As a kid I used flaring matches to bore holes in my models , damage looked good with black and melted edges.

Right? This is what you do to the plastic to show that it's been destroyed- the "burnt out" part is what you would do with various paints and textures for rust, soot, rubber ash, paint distressed from heat, etc. Best way to replicate that is lots and lots of real life reference photos.

Good stuff. I used a woodburning iron many many years ago- it ran cooler than a soldering iron so the plastic is less likely to burn and the melted plastic looks more like deformed armor.

Martin. Tamiya putties seem to contain acetone. You could use it for this sort of clean-up you mention in this video. And also when the putty hardens in the tube. Just add a drop or two of acetone into the tube, mix it in with say a toothpick and you're ready to go. Saves a lot of money. And BTW I really enjoy your wonderful videos.

That peppered Tiger reminds me of a post war photo from Sharpness fireing range where AP rounds were being tested. A second photo showed the effect of a round pierceing the left hull side and blowing a large section of the right hull side onto the muddy ground with various squadies standing around. Diorama idea?.

Get an original comment.

When I used to build Gundam models I would sometimes used a soldering iron to burrow battle scars into their shields and armor. The benefit of using the soldering iron is the displacement of plastic that looks a bit more like actual impacts on metal. Also adding a bit of rust color to some of the holes gives the impression of a vehicle that's been through several battles.

This can be done even on a built model... as long as you haven't started painting it yet :)

That like 1 second shot of that O-I Superheavy looked amazing

I knew my Tamiya Basic putty would be useful some time. All jokes aside, thank you very much for sharing man. This is an amazing technique.

Awesome video!!! I love how you make so many aspects of this hobby so simple for even new model builders. This really allows for maximum control -from size, placement, texture, no guesswork or luck involved. Well done.

5:48 "im sorry this clip is blurry" Me watching in 240p: what do you mean?

I don’t do modeling myself but you’re an absolute wizard with this stuff. First time viewer.

The way I usually do this is with a hobby knife, because I'm too damn lazy to go buy a drill. It has the benefit of creating really uneven holes and scratching the hell out of the panel, which both help make it a lot more interesting I think. I definitely like your technique better though.

But you are not too lazy to go buy new blades? Best tool for the job yields the best result.

Simply Brilliant! I so enjoy your channel. You not only have some great skill, but you do an excellent job of clearly and simply articulating the steps to achieve the result. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and skill with other modellers on KZread. Dan

I had no idea that model building could be so damn fun, and cool! This guy makes his models look so accurate to scale!

Im amazed to see so many comments asking about stuff that is actually IN the video. Maybe you should finish this cinematic work of art before commenting stupid stuff. Great work as always Martin!

I don't know ... but it seems to me that in future competitions we will see many tanks looking like French cheese, and perfectly reproduced. Great tutorial my friend!

Friday beers and a Night Shift video. Enough said

Haven't made any models since I was a kid but watching this makes me want to go buy some again..great stuff, very informative. Subbed for more

Hello Martin, Just used this video to create 2cm Flak 30 shell/anti-tank impacts on the big armor shield, small armor shield and on a fender. Turned out pretty well, I think, thanks to you. Love your videos. Keep up the great work!!

Catching up on older vids :) these are so entertaining and informative

Yours' are the most helpful tips and tweaks a modeler could hope for. Thank you.

I have used a magnifying glass (and the sun) before , super quick and can look good for glancing shots .

Cool. Always appreciate what make one a good modeler; when they share tips that most anyone can do. Way to go Night Shift, keep it coming!

This is great. I love the way you explain and present these videos. Well done, and thank you.

Awesome tip and video as always mate. You give me something to look forward to on Friday mornings a video from one of the world's best modelers.

I enjoyed both the video, great tutorial indeed and the accent too, it's very nice to hear such a clear pronunciation every now and then these days.

Brilliant, Martin... thank you. The idea for using the putty is a game changer. 👍👍

Very convincing technique! Great stuff Martin. :)

I never even considered getting into scale modelling until these vids. These techniques look really fun. Will try to recreate with greenstuff since that is what I have lying around.

I plan to get into gunplay and or tank modeling like this so I find your videos very helpful

Cant wait for the Tiger build! Awesome tutorial! Always nice to watch your videos - i always find another really nice method of achieving a certain effect!

Great technique, i'll be trying this on my next Panther build, thanks.

Really nice demonstration, easily understood and great results really quick! Thanks for sharing.

I take needle heads in different sizes, heat them up an can now draw bounces or shell hits directly in to the plastic. It will melt around and gives a perfect edge.

i just started scale modeling this video helped alot, thanks

Thank you...! This should help a lot for a model which I'm displaying as destroyed (mostly to cover up the fact that it's an open-topped vehicle and yet the manufacturers declined to give it an interior nor any crew)

Just discovered your channel and I have to say your commentary is the best Keep up the good work

Uncle Night Shift delivers again! What a great and simple method for realistic battle damage. Thank you so much for spreading the wealth of knowledge!

Have you tried using a magnifying glass or binocular lens , and waiting for a sunny day , this makes quite acceptable shell holes , you can melt and pierce . Take it easy though !! Yours look excellent . Wales UK.

Nice and simple technique. Looks great!

I've been adding battle damage to models for some time but this video gave me a few extra tricks.

Thank you for this video there are so many ways you can use and vary this technique.

Eres un maestro, cualquier video que veo tuyo es pura perfección.

You have the best tutorials anywhere..!! Thanks for sharing them..!

I'm a Model Railroader, and nIw trying to figure out a reason to shoot up a train! Nice technique and video clinic...

MARTIN!!! I honestly was considering looking up a good way of doing this for my current project. I may just have to try it!

This was very helpful I'm new to war dioramas so this helps a lot.

Helpful, interesting and FUN!! Thanks for posting!!

That was super informative! This is helping get my drive back to start doing models again!

I always pick up something useful from your vids mate, keep em coming !

Nothing is better then celibrate weekend with a night shift video

martin yhou are a crazy dude. I love your intros and comments, sound effects etc. You rock keep it up

Wow that's some awesome detail.

Really would love how you paint/weather these effects. Great video as always!!

I really get a lot out of your videos...And like the way u do it with some humor to make it more fun. I'm loyal subscriber after only 2 videos. And I don't even build that many tanks. Hell, I haven't built anything in almost a year. I guess this was the inspiration I was looking for. Thank you

I love that churchill GC. Great video.

Very interesting and helpful video. These impacts looks really great. Nice job

I've seen zimmerit on the side armour plate. I definetely looking forward for the upcoming video :D

This is awesome! This technique will be getting used a lot on my future models.

your technique is very good and easy to duplicate. looks REALLY good and thanks for sharing!

Fantastic video tutorial thank you for sharing it with us!

Thanks! Very informative, and easy to follow

Thanks for another great video, Martin, it was very informative. Have a great weekend.

Amazing I just bought myself a jar putty to deal with my old models mold lines. Will be trying this soon

Nice video, as always! This is actually the primary method that I use, but it's nice to see I'm not alone in it. Now I just need to find the time to finish all the projects I've been doing it to, lol.

Superb idea! Thanks a lot for sharing!

Lovely tutorial. THANKS!

Got to be the best modelling channel on youtube..Could you do a tutorial on how to paint these impacts..maybe one old with rust and another fresh Dan

Thank you very much for your lessons and practice! perhaps you are one of the most interesting and useful modelers at the moment !!!
