Looks very nice. Wish their had been a video like this when I was painting
my French tanks. It would have made things a lot easier. As for the
stippling method I agree it works well but wrecks brushes. Do they make a
stippling brush that is fine enough for 15mm models like this one?

That’s great. Can you do one for the paras and grenadiers?

I haven’t seen any small purpose-made stippling brushes anywhere, but you
could make your own very easily by trimming the bristles on an old
synthetic brush which no longer has a nice point. About a #0 or #1 should
work, depending on the brand. Cut the bristles straight across, about 3mm
long. It’s a bit basic, but it’s better than throwing out an old brush
that’s no good for detail work any more.

Okay, I use a lot of cheap synthetic brushes so I should have a couple
laying around. Thanks for the prompt response.

I have a small question. In the Open Fire! set, in the plastic box with the
Pak 40’s, there is a small metal cilinder in a separate small plastic bag.
Where is this cilinder for? Thus far I have found no use for it.

@degydyarev : Those are spent shell casings.. place them around your pak40’s
degydyarev June 22, 2013 @

No, the shell casings speak for themselves, I am talking about a different
cilinder, one without a circular base. But I figured it out, the thing I
was talking about were the magnets from the open fire box. thanks for the
response anyway

This was a very helpful video. I have a 1/72 scale Pz II and Tiger E late
model I want to paint. The camo part was very helpful as I don’t have a an
airbrush or spray cans of model paint.

I’m new to modeling, and i’d like to ask – is washing basically mixing
paint 50/50 with water, then brushing in onto your paintjob?

In 5:00 the three stugs look much more … grey ? Is this the Camera or do
you use there different colours ?
They look great and can’t wait to paint mine :D
WulfOne November 16, 2014 @

Vallejo must have changed their mix for Middlestone because the one I have
is too green not enough yellow. It wouldn’t make a good dark yellow in my
opinion. As it is almost green it seems. Tamiya dark yellow looks more like
the color of paint used here.
