Painting the Warlord KV-1/2 Soviet Heavy Tank [28mm]
In this video I demonstrate how I painted this glorious and mighty (and very sensible) KV-2… and KV-1…
The model is the plastic kit by Italeri/Warlord, which I think is quite a nice model.
I think the paint has turned out quite nicely. What do you think? Let me know.
The sensible teethy face thing was done as a commission, though I don’t regularly do them I am happy to consider offers.

Herbert, you should totally start streaming in the middle of the night, also known as when I'm awake on the other side of the ball-rock-thing we live on.
The shark-faced KV-2 Turret reminds me of the decals/accessories in War Thunder.
IS VERY STRONK! GO TO GULAG! HAHAHA! Also, as an incompetent painter, i always appreciate your painting videos, so thanks.
Now KV-2 has gotten more stronk

Less derpy? Why would I want to do that?! To gulag with you! Anyway, the toothy-face is known as a ‘shark mouth’, seen on most armies’ vehicles WW2 and onward. The most famous examples are from the planes of the US volunteer squadron in the Chinese Air force during WW2; the famous Flying Tigers.

When using your airbrush do you have an extractor fan on?
Hey you should do a German captured tank either Russian or US. Cheers
:D
How do you avoid the acrylic washes leaving tidemarks? For every mixture i've tried so far i've had to babysit the model for an hour and constantly re-apply water to avoid the wash drying in weird patterns on flat surfaces... Is there a specific paint or thinner that avoids this?

You might be applying it too thick or heavily? it might even have something to do with the climate wherever you are. I try to do those washes in thin layers, you can always build them up over multiple coats if they're not dark enough.
Did early war Russian tanks live long enough for the paint to fade?
Why are my flames of war paints so thin even if I shake them for 5 minutes?

I have no idea. Thin paint isn't bad. Unless it's TOO thin?
Why is my russian green so different than your's? I have this problem with nearly all my vallejo paints:(

Wujek Сталин I believe that the paint you're using is sold ready to airbrush. Just put some in a small pallet and let it set for a while. It will thicken up as it drys so you can paint more easily. Simple as that ! Happy Modeling ......

It could be down to differences in how screens represent colour. However, I've had bottles of Model Air Russian Green that are slightly different shades from each other, which is a bit annoying. I've only seen that with the russian green myself. Personally I'm not too worried about it unless I'm trying to match something previously painted with the Russian Green. I have my doubts that the Soviets were particularly picky about exact shades of green.

Herbert Erpaderp. One thing to remember especially when it comes to 4Bo is that one batch of paint won't ever be the same. That's just the way paints are. Because of mixing no matter what you won't ever get two batches the same. That's why you see the same paint be different colors.
Which gulag worker did you get the paint from?

The fake Russian accent, it was pretty funny, but you've done it a hundred times. And it's still the same line after all these years?

Is good stronk accent. Is no problem! New lines are for filthy capitalists.
KV2 was a tank failure. Moronic Soviet design.
