Let's Paint A Heavy Soviet Winter Camouflage! (KV-2, Tamiya 1/48)
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
My friends, winter camouflages on tanks are a very specific type of paint job. In most cases, you can clearly tell when you're done applying the basic colors to your model and when it's time to start the weathering process. However, in this case, the lines are very blurry, and a winter camouflage sort of evolves with each weathering step.

I feel you! Martin and mike Rinaldi keep me going when I’m lacking motivation.
Thank you , Uncle Martin . 🐺
Great guide! I love the effect so far and look forward to seeing it finished. I think I'll definitely be taking some advice from this for one of own videos!

Hello Pete, nice seeing you here :)
Excellent work as always, my friend! I watch all of Martin's videos and I haven't built a model (WW2 aircraft were my 'thang') in almost 45 years! It's just the precision, care in building, painting and weathering that attracts me - I'm a photographer and observational poet and it's 'observation' that is the thing - the eye for detail, solving a problem of creating a particular 'effect' and putting this into a model is what makes your work a real work of art! Outstanding!

I'm from Russia and leave in Saint Petersburg (before Leningrad) I began watching you and understood that you assembled and built very good models and diorams. Thank y for your video.
I could watch you paint all day, it's kinda therapeutic tbh.
The only thing about your videos is that you make all seem so easy!! Seriously, you do an outstanding job, it is learning which technique you need to use to achieve a certain look. I know what I want, getting there is the hard part. Outstanding.
Enjoyed the vertical streaks
I got to say, that Lacquer Base MRP paints is ALL I use. I LOVE THEM. I gradually build up color and after a couple of layers, they cover so well, and look so clean when airbrushed, and even hand brushed the paint leaves no brush strokes when dried.
Unbelievable work , the paint came out great . Such good directions and guide . SOOOO KOOOOOLLLLLLLL . Mike .
100% professional as always.
I love Friday!👍🍻
Let’s see you do an MATV!
Are you planning on doing another full interior tank? Your A7V was amazing and it would be cool to see some others 😎

I bet that chipping and rust effects made that massive turret stand out even more. Can’t wait until next week. Nice compact episode too. 👍👍👍
Thinking this channel is only one worth watching, good technics with humour. Makes it a must .
The best moment of the week : THE MOY FREUND TIME !!!
Thanks! It’s great watching an artist
You should try making a black and white model with figures along with a black and white diorama. Make it all look like an old photo which of course would be in...well black and white!
One of the more interesting and unique whitewash finishes - well done! 👍
Martin, thank you so much for your videos. They are not only excellent tutorials, but are very entertaining with your commentary and humour. Well done!
Thank you nightshift you have helped me so much with going out of my comfort zone and trying new things, eventually I'm going to make a motor pull of a Humvee and tank but add lights to them
Great..........Fantastic, very nice and really winter Tarn
Another Christmas diorama in the future? This KV-2 vid already feels like an early X-mas gift. Lol
That's a really good technique for snow camouflage over a Russian green. I tend to work backwards from shadow, too. Great job!
Most reaslistic and superb winter camouflage, VERY impressive!
Watching this during a uni class, no regrets this is much more interesting
Always a pleasure. Thanks Uncle Night Shift 💕
this Vid just arrived as I need it. thank you for you stuff good sir..
I definitely must remember that. Very useful. And great result. All the best for You! ;)
Thanks for repping Michigan Toy Soldier. They have a great store in Royal Oak, Michigan.
Like allways teacher Night shift is The best
Nice painted model
Looks incredible. Your winter white wash, is a massive inspiration, for the winter binge, I’m currently in with my models lol 🙌
Wonderful! Thank you.
Excellent as always, really like how you broke down the mapping technique! Thanks!
Great quality modeler! Excellent painting techniques and I learn more brilliant ideas! Thank You will continue to watch!
Wow these looks incredibly real. I don’t paint models, but I will keep this is mind for some miniatures.
Awesome! I love the streaks and drips, hopefully I’ll use this soon. Looks great as always! Although your KV-1 is a classic, this one is going to be even cooler!
Amazing work night shift!
Nice
Great timing, I'm working on a winter snow build to, thanks for so many ideas , cheers 👍
This is beautiful
It's a good day when Uncle Nightshift drops a video full of awesomeness!
Pekné... Už sa teším na konečný výsledok, zároveň som zvedavý co bude následovat po tomto modeli... 👍👍👍👍🏅
Just perfect ! Congratulations !
Great techniques and enjoyable viewing as always.
Truly incredible work as always!
Fantastic as always!
your videos are always satisfying to watch with a nice cup of coffee 👌
yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyy its friday again so another video :)))))))
It's looking especially cool, this one.
Omfg that painting job is soo good!
Nice tonk
You should build a model Humvee, HEMTT, MRAP, MATV, C-HET, or any kinda modern military wheeled vehicle
Ohhh I forgot today was uncle night shift day! What a great surprise
I can imagin this tank like hiding behind half demolished house diorama.
looks amazing, man! always love it when you do some unconventional camo!
Just simply beautiful. Great instruction as well, I am sure i'll be watching this video a few times. =)
I almost forgot it was Friday, but then I saw the notification and boom, my day was made better
I was planning to make a winter camouflage vehicle, so this will come in handy!
Another great video man, keep it up
I'll try out some this on my panzer iv in 1.35 scale 👍
The best part of Friday...:)
wow you have fast hands
Hell yeah new nightshift vid! I'm hoping to build an IS-3 at some point soon
Nice work 😃👍
Can't wait to see this finished :)
Its freezing, uncle🥶🥶
if you have troubles airbrushing white you should try liquitex white ink. Sprays like a dream and it has a smoother finish aswell. Great video!!!
Just recently finished a 1/35 kv2 wouldve been nice to use this as a bit of a guide but I was able to use your kv1 videos awesome video btw
What exactly is mapping? It's cool to see you partnered with Michigan Toy Soldier. Those guys are really nice.
I love this! gonna start a KV-2 in 48th as well, then make a Yugoslav/Serbian M36 tank wreck with some reference photos I took myself!
Can you please make and paint a small brown cat that’s sitting on the tank?
Wow a nice Tank🤘🏻nice Winter Camo Greetings from the Bastel 🤘🏻Bude

My idol.
Огонь!!! Как всегда очень круто!
It’s time to do another meme diorama. Abandoned T-80BVM being towed away by farmers tractor. I know you don’t like to get political but the world needs armor modelers right now.
This will be another masterpiece! Great job! Now I want to build a Soviet winter tank too... 😄
Getting "muh" coffee....be right back...
I don’t know how you do it! It looks amazing every time I try to make a white wash it just flakes off in massive chunks all the way to the primer🫤
I love doing winter camo on armor and your representation is awesome as always my friend 👍🏽👍🏽
Great job 🔵🔵🔵👍👍👍😀😀😀🔵🔵🔵
I'd love to see a tank Vs sniper diorama. Similar to the scene in saving private Ryan
If you type in the definition of Model masterpiece, this video would definitely show up at first.
It would be really neat if you painted the ring left from the bucket of paint on the tank like they put the bucket down as they were painting it and it left a big old ring on the hull or turret
Glory to the KV 2 !
Thanks for the Video, the white wash looks fantastic. The Preshading was worth the effort. Would you recommend the same workflow for a white wash on Tri Tone camouflage?
Merci👏👏👍
Looks amazing! Do you thin your black primer with anything? Keep up the great work mate 👍
The post shading technique sort of makes the model look like the illustrations on their boxes
Man, you make it look so easy. I tried putting a winter whitewash on an SU-100 but it came out a bit of a disaster, lol Also, I wish I could get the ease of use you do with washes, I always struggle to keep it from either being wiped off too easily and removing the effect or impossible to clean up without accidentally taking off the previous layers (even through a varnish)
Great work you should make a panther next
absolutely brilliant
So good! What color was your first pin wash? Was it the dark main green (4bo) color of tank, just watered down? It definatly looks green and not black or brown. Did you mix anything in with the green?
just wondering what air compressor you use for your airbrush, i just got ahold of a single action siphon feed one, but the compressor sounds like a v8! i am looking for a smaller silent one, if you have any recommendations on witch one, that would be great. also can you do a guide to pre shading aircraft panels i cant find a good one and i need more details to paint my next big model. love what your doing, keep it up, have a good day!
Very interesting to watch - regarding "discount codes" are there any in the UK or europe as buying from the US is way too expensive so saving nothing
