Are Oil Paints Better Than Enamel Washes??? | Jagdtiger 331 | Takom 1/35

it's JAGtiger not YAGtiger

Cause dammit when I apply oil wash or mig washes on satin or gloss surface it spreads over the surface and dries it embeds and then I can't remove the excess with the brush full of thinner. I think I'm doing everything right, I can't figure out what's wrong! 😭

I used the oil dot method but just with acrylic Vallejo paints on a 1/35 Sherman and it looked better than I thought

if you haven't already, try Zippo lighter fluid- dries quicker!

Great video, I always learn something new from your channel and it really ups my building techinques!

I can't stand the smell of enamels - odorless spirit and oils solve that problem. And you apply so little, drying is no problem.

This is the type of life question which keeps me up at night. Shades vs Enamel washes vs Oilbrushers.

wow amazing, are you still producing videos

Another benefit to your dots after washes approach [at least to my lazy wargamer brain] is the filter adds subtle highlights to the washed areas, This is most noticeable on your tool clamp welds as you blend the sides, it transfers like a drybrush highlight.

Can you show on a video, how to use the A.MIG-1510 Tan for 3 Tone Camo? I can't find any video of it. So maybe you or any viewers can tell me how to use it?

Lol 😂 I have also developed a certain addiction to this specific wash for some time now. I use it practically everywhere, from tanks to aircrafts, ships and dioramas.... up to a wooden trestle bridge for an 1/160 railroad diorama, it's just the right color for everything! 😁

Another outstanding video and presentation.

I'm building the Porsche version of this model now. I am going to use all of these techniques!

Please build a messerschmitt bf 109

This is not a criticism,but I'm fed up with German this and German that.
Personally I build anything but,I particularly like the IDF stuff,they are always different to the norm.
I always look forward to Friday.
It's night shift day,loving your humour
Skill and experience.
Thanks,please continue with the vids.
😎❤✌

The wheels look like colorful macarons --yummy:))

"oil dots are not streaked on the top unless you want your tank to be going 300 miles an hour"

I would honestly love to see a BT-5 with this effect, since they are so speedy

Personally I LIKE the term "STERILE" as that is EXACTLY What it looks like!
I have recently purchased some 1/32 German and American Tank Models that are actually more like "TOYS"... but are more for the "Collectors" and have some VERY NICE Details! YES they can be "Improved" upon and that is EXACTLY What I have been doing and with making my own add on detail parts {i.e. Tools, Tow Cables and Hooks, Adding some Resin, Photo-Etched parts and some custom parts I made!} And ALSO of course some Weathering/Aging and detail painting courtesy of "Uncle Night Shift"! LOL :D

But BECAUSE of Martin's Vids... the Toys/Models have GREATLY Improved in looks! I've even taken them to some model club meetings and UNTIL i said something to my fellow club members... they didn't even KNOW that these tanks and plans were from the "21st. Century/Ultimate Soldier" or "UNIMAX-Forces of Valor" lines of Collectible Military Toy Models?!

And I'm talking some VERY VERY SERIOUS Military Modelers here! So yea... AGAIN a HUGE thanks to Martin for his AWESOME "HOW TO" Vids! :D

Love you chanal, such a high quality!!! The products you show and what they do. I never did this hobby nice, but you help me with tons of tips and tricks!!!

The painted crosses in red because they figured out that enemies they were using white ones as target because very visible

Great video, seek Jesus Christ brother

This oils is it the same as food oil or is it black oil?

Be brave and bold, use acrylic washes lol

Can you enable english subtitles for your videos? Thank you

360 no scope

That oil wash was pretty sick man! how fast it worked so cool. I only use acryl washes, but after seeing this I would try oil washes.

The crosses were changed because the US was using white crosses to designate medical evacuation. It was brought up during a protest that the US raised against the Germans. In return it was rumored that they had to give up using incendiary bombs against German Targets. In turn they used them against the Japanese at a greater rate.

one thing I don't get is the 10ml oilbrusher costs around 4usd while the 35ml jar of enamal wash costs around 6usd, how can the oil paint being more cost efficient?

Have you ever tried Gamblin galkyd or Windsor and Newtons' Liquin fast-drying oil mediums? Can make the colour yellow a bit but with a wash, I don't think that's a problem.

Im subbed man, Im subbed!

"Black and white photos CLEARLY shoe the corsses were Red"
U sure about that bud?

Hello, very nice build by the way. What Lamp/Light source do you use!? Greetings Ben.

i would love to see you tackle a model that isn't a tank. A plane, or even a scifi model would be amazing to see from you

Greetings mah friend. Whenever I try an oil wash the pigments in the paint separate out and it looks really grainy. And i mean while in the pallet before i even put it on the model. I've tried multiple types of thinner and brands of paint.

Does anyone know why this might be happening?

Working on weatherin with oils is my favourite part of painting. Your attitude is simply brilliant. But with a wife and kids, there is less spare time :)

lol at the Soviet Russian lighting socket.

It depends . You can get better shading and color with oil .its a little more work experimenting with different colors as opposed to opening a bottle of pre- mixed color .

I still want to see your take on a Warhammer 40 000 tank!

Hi.
Maybe Someone knows good airbrush in 40€ Budget?
But I didn’t find Iwata in my budget.

how do you make these builds so realistic its amazing.
keep up the good work ;)

love your videos. I'm interested in dotted camo. was that used a lot by the Germans?

Good evening Mr Kovac. Can I ask you to few thinks about scale modeling?

Alright, now lets see you build and paint the Landkreuzer P. 1000 from Modelcollect. The thing is so big, you don't even need to make fake shadows.

Ya almost got 10mil total views congrats!

What is your choice of Satin Varnish ? Thanks 😊

This episode is all about oil paint. *Michael Rinaldi has entered the chat

So how many times did you try to blend out an oil dot that was actually an ambush camo dot?! 😅😂

Germans did, in fact, paint the white portions of the cross red and occasionally other colours. This is covered by Hilary Doyle (a foremost expert on German WW2 AFVs) and can be seen on several untouched German vehicles from the late 44-45 era. I believe there is a recent video of him reviewing an unrestored StuG which still has the red paint on the crosses, etc.
