"I don't really like this model so let's spend a lot of time heavily modifying it" I expected no less.

That mantlet looks so much cooler with the dust cover mounting! I’m looking forward to seeing you take on another rusty finish, nice work!

Great work! I suggest a challenge where you take a relatively simple kit (ie Tamiya Panther) and build it OOB with no extra media AT ALL! And see what the end result is!

@@NightShiftScaleModels Yes and it must be the (dreaded) Panzerkampfwagen V Panther Ausf. A (MM165) to see if even you can fix that piece of horror... Styrene and sheet metal scratch building is allowed, or more precise, required! :P Bonus is that it's so cheap it's almost nothing but it's the kit that has singlehandedly made the most first scale model builders to quit the hobby in less than one hour due to the shady quality?! I've tried three times, as an exercise, to fix the kit but they never even ended up in the corner of shame and instead went straight in the bin... I'm more than happy to buy the kit for you just to see you attack it! It will generate a lot of content for you since there's so much room for fixing it so it's a real winner winner from that point of view! ;) If you do this I promise I will attempt it the fourth time and not send it to the bin before finishing it - and I will send photos as proof doing it! This I'd love to see you having a go at but you can't be angry with me after started it... ;)

I'd love to see a someone build and modify an old Monogram Armor kit in a Homage to the Late Shepard Paine...his pack in leaflets with Monogram kits were what inspired me as a kid. Another idea I'd love to see is maybe do a diorama on the book Devils of D-day by Graham Masterton. A spooky tale about a Demonic Sherman tank...and with Halloween just around the corner...

I'm not sure I've even seen Night Shift build a kit WITHOUT buying all the available aftermarket parts!

Thank you , Uncle Martin . 🐺

You are such a big inspiration to me night shift you've really gotten me to go out of my comfort zone and try new things thank you so much for that I've even suggested you to a bunch of my friends

Pfffff..... I'm always looking with "big eyes and a open mouth" at all of the incredible details and your perfect made models. These are so incredible beautifull. Love your work and your always happy voice. 👍🏻👍🏻

Have you tried making a rusting tank targets scene or an unsung hero, the Armoured Recovery Vehicle, scene? You could really indulge your rust and moss fetish😁👍🏻 Have a good weekend.

Always fun to see the sheer amount of detail you put into your work. Just amazes me

About 2 years ago I was working at Tidworth barracks, where I parked was a Conqueror on display I had never seen a real one before I can say there are massive, one of the most impressive military vehicles I have ever seen.

Conqueror was my love in World of Tanks. Such a nice tank in all means and purposes, had extreme amount of satisfaction from it. Design wise, I really love how it looks. It's something in between atomic age and industrial age design, like best of previous age and some cool stuff from next age. glad to see you working on it, really love this tank.

What’s the next for you Uncle Nighty?? The same ol round of figuring out the subject, buying all the parts, starting the build, finishing, recoding. I serious, I go through the same thing on a smaller level. What’s the next pathway of enjoyment and learning for a master modeler. You don’t call yourself a figure paint but we all believe your figures are incredible. What’s more is your always developing and experimenting with new techniques. Your armor modeling is spot on and always fresh. What is the next chapter in Uncles modeling experience? Love your channel, the sense of humor, your skills, and work. Best wishes!!!

Conqueror is one of those tanks that just looks like a tank. Such a thicc machine

I had the privilege in 2020 of working on the restoration of one of these brutes, which was itself a gate guard in a sorry state, [similar to those range targets] so the Conq has a special place in my heart. Nice work. If you're planning on adding the side stowage bins, do note that on the real tank, they're made of aluminium so they didn't rust like the fenders/mudguards did [those were completely full of holes.] Also, there were inexplicable bullet-sized, but non-penetrating dents in said aluminium stowage bins, presumably from blanks/airsoft/some other kind of weak projectile. Maybe you could include something like that in the final model, though at this stage it's probably too late. I am thoroughly impressed by those details on the gun mantlet's dust cover mounts.

I worked on one at the Imperial War Museum trying to keep it in running condition, this was in 1979 - 1981.

dude, the quality of your videos doesn't let me down. I'm a fan

This is going to be an awesome series!

Friday, just finished the work day and a video pops up from Uncle Night Shift. Perfect timing.

I would never throw out an incompleted model, regardless of how complete or messed up it might be. There's always something you can do with it

I like scenic bases of abandoned vehicles on army training grounds, etc. - so I appreciate this project very much!

Awesome video. I know these are a lot of work for you but it’s super relaxing for me to watch. Keep up the great work.

Awesome work as always! I really like the worn out models, even civil cars, abandoned dioramas etc. Waiting for more content like the old vw bug. :) Keep up the great work!

It’s a nice shaped tank. Your attention to detail is On another level……..wow!

Always a good to finish a piece off the Shelf of Shame.

Interesting Project. Looking forward to the paint job and Diorama I guess. 🤘

I love the idea of a really used range target tank.

And here we are again! Excited!

The Chieftain just did a rush tour of an armor museum in Finland which had a couple examples of tank turrets with different shell and antitank gun hits. A proper "range queen" is going to need a few such beauty marks, don't you think?

Uncle night shift cheers up my day

Baking soda in some water is the best way to clean up flux. It nuturalizes the acid.

Night Shift is life. Keep going! If it’s a target practice piece, I’m curious to see how you give it that torn up look. A bent barrel would be cool.

Aw hell yeah, one of my favorite heavy tanks along with the M103.

Fun idea ,making it look like scrap in a very detailed way .

Those old military tank targets usually got their vision blocks blown out by numerous close range explosions 😆😆😆... I've hit a few of them when I was a 81mm Mortar Gunner and even had a round land right in the Commander's Cupola lmao 😂😂😂

Awesome!!

Looks amazing as always!

Glad To Hear You're Recovering Well and Your Work DEFINITELY PROVES IT 👍👍 Have a Blessed Wknd Uncle NS 🤗🤗 Gary.

Thank you, Gute Besserung !

Ed Webster from the KZread channel Armoured Archives was allowed acces to the Kirkudbright ranges where he encountered a few very shot up Conquerors. you might like his video's on the ranges!

God bless our fallen queen

my favorite british heavy tank. nice video!

Great as always! Looking forward to more! I did a T34 1942 mod recently and a Kamaz 4350 Mustang with environments and learned a some great tricks from your channel :) Thanks!

sorry to hear you got sick man! hope you feel better soon!

Yet again Mr Shift a quality build. I love the way you go above and beyond to make the best possible realistic version of your model. Happy modelling sir

I know you focus on armour models, but I would love to see you do some ships and aircraft to see what you would end up with, for example 1/350 IJN Mogami and 1/35 Me109. Love the videos and the information to improve my modeling skills.

Ma Friends! When you hear that, you know its going to be a good episode.

the bigest respect just for you

It’s always a awesome Friday when you upload a video can’t wait to watch the painting, the weathering, and the diorama. Always love watching your videos

For ppl who r tryna use this as a reference if building the same tank, they’ll have trouble as your getting pieces from other kits XD (I love ur content and I’m gonna use your T-90 vid as a reference to what I’m building, same company, same tank and same qualityj

Man, the work you do is absolutely amazing, and that's an understatement! Cheers from 🇺🇸👍

Glad your feeling better,Uncle!! Nice work as always!!!!

I love the small details!

A beautiful model, I am inspired by the finish of my projects. Thanks for this.

Great work, many thanks!!!!

It looks great, however hard targets are covered in craters and holes, they've literally had thousands of training rounds fired at them.

Just want you to know your videos changed the way I hobby, and my life, thanks for the great videos

Hope you feel a lot better, very soon. Good to see that you're able to continue to model and film, as we need our regular fix 😉 lol

Love your videos and passion. Because of you I started building models myself this summer :)

Thanks for the class!

You make all that hard work look smooth and easy, Martin, and that grab-handle template was a simple, yet brilliant idea. It might be time to edit part of your outro. "Keep building your models, don't just collect them, or throw them away!" Have a great weekend!

Feel better! Can't wait to see the weathering.

Hope you feel better soon Martin. I'm looking forward to the next step. Take care.

Get well soon!

Omg a Conqueror! Now there's just 2 tanks left I want to see Night Shift do: Centurion and Chieftain

Brilliant as always, much love from America.

Thrilling prospect! Sorry to hear that you got sick. Stay safe. 🙏

ein super danke fur das video es ist ein erlebnis danke danke und die grussen aus holland.

Your skills are amazing. Your tutorials are so helpful for me and my models. BUTTTT..... gotta say I always enjoy the commentary while watching. Please keep up the good, no great work

One detail that is missing is the fuel filler caps on the outer engine decks 👍

I am super impressed with your videos! I am still trying to reach such level in tank modelling.

Awesome, and welcome back!

Hello there uncle! Looking forward for the series!

Удивительно насколько сильно Мартин заморочился с мелкими деталями!

Oh my god posted 9 seconds ago!!

i have done the is 3 abandoned in shikutan islands. it is sth like that idea.I love it

A model that's definitely a headscratcher but the amount of details it has makes it a beauty to look at even unfinished as it is.

Excellent build 👍 After all that work, I would have loved to see a Mk 2 in active service! However, all the weathering potential for a range target is going to make this a lot of fun to watch!

Wish You get well soon, Martin) always waitin for your videos impatiently!

all of the photos you chose are from the museum I used to volunteer at lol, we had one there that wasn't a range target, but was an experimental variant with the half assed auto loader, I don't know if it's still there, regardless it was in a state of dis-repair. currently It's called William, for obvious reasons, glad to see you're making a model of him ^^ if you want more up to date pictures just ask

Greetings Night Shift, the Conqueror turned out perfectly, who said it was not exciting, it was like all your other work, well worth the wait, very glad you have recovered well from Covid, looking forward to the next installment, best regards from Australia.

There is an actual Conqueror at Bovington tank museum THE Tank Museum So manufacturers had no excuse for not getting it right. * I had a dose of the virus "of unknown origin" recently too .. 2 years plus after it arrived here

Yes I found the perfect video to watch while I eat.

always an impressive pro job

Looking forward to seeing this one come together. Get well soon buddy 🙏

Your projects keeps blowing mi mind :O

Get those Archer Transfers while you can. They're closing up shop in November.

Nice work. I hate coming back to a model I wasn't all that enthused about. I caught that stuff back around the first of the year, too. Fortunately, really didn't get all that ill.

Looking forward to seeing you do full on rusrtyness. Glad your getting over the dreaded lurgy.

If it is possible you should add some hit marks, like marks from bounced off shells, to make it more like an training target

Ah yes the black plague from DML . I've got mine almost finished but sitting there waiting . Just a note on the grab handles on the rear deck . The handles are not welded in place , they actually sink back in to the hull to protect them from damage , the Centurion is the same .

I noticed that! it would look more interesting if some of them were sunken

May I recommend the "Abandoned supra of the mountain" for one of your dioramas? There is a modified MK3 Toyota Supra that was evidently crashed off a mountain road by a youth driving enthusiastically in Japan. The car was subsequently abandoned, and is still there 30 years later. Noriyaro has a video of the car in it's current state for reference.

Great job as always! It would be awesome to see you work your magic on a Warhammer tank!

Can’t wait for the next episode.

Interesting subject

I like it! I think it's a really unusual and authentic model

my favorite tank

Yes I love this tank

From Captain MacMillan's word, Beautiful.

Maybe do a workshop scenery where an old tank is in restauration

Hi Martin, Great job, as usual ! Suggestion for a next project... why don't you built a tank with snorkel like UsM60 A1? And of course on a diorama "under water"...
