What a great tutorial. You have given me a motivation boost to tackle my plastic soldier British 1/72 Shermans for Battle Group Normandy. Some great weathering and dry brushing tips. Keep em coming !

@highrack 9 лет назад

Great Video. I just built five Sherman tanks this week and found that the treads didn't fit tight, like you found. On the last tank I glued the tracks on first then glued the front sprocket on and it worked great. No space and lined up.

@bobtrantin6808 4 года назад

Great tutorial. I followed your lead and my US tanks are now the envy of my gaming group... Thanks for your time and for sharing your experience and expertise!! Bob T.

Really great video! Very informative and a job well done. Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge and talents.

@michaelcontario8729 7 лет назад

Great video that helped me since as I'm just starting my 15mm pieces

@jamieuk8286 3 года назад

Brilliant, really nice work. I'm learning a lot from your videos. Thank you

@Steve20127 11 лет назад

Very interesting video. You certainly know how to put those models together. Good colour info too. Thanks.

@mh1ultramarine 9 лет назад

I splatted some brown paint on 15mm Stuarts V. Makes it look a lot nicer seeing as I just painted them green first.

@kenc9236 3 года назад

Amazing detail. Good job.

@Vekin1971 9 лет назад

Thanks for this, it inspired me to use this method with my Sherman tanks.

@japanesesandman 13 лет назад

Stunning work!

@Tigerheart01 7 лет назад

This video earned you a new subscriber!

@ThePaintingClinic 12 лет назад

@pbdimitri Yes, with Vallejo primer and an airbrush.

@jaroslawstawarz3398 8 лет назад

i love your 15 mm models!

@ThePaintingClinic 11 лет назад

Can't use "any" mainly because it's not really a wax and most others are. It's an acrylic, the same as your paints. It's just a much cheaper option than buying a tiny bottle for gloss from your paint manufacturer. I airbrush it, but brushing works too.

@atftbone 13 лет назад

Nice work on these.

@koekhapper 10 лет назад

Nice instructional video, very informative. Thanks.

@ThePaintingClinic 12 лет назад

@Sonnypjim09 The 15mm Sherman are 5.5cm by 2.5cm. I have a 1/72 one and it's 8cm by 3.8cm. Most 15mm figs are pretty crappy, but Plastic Soldier Co. makes nice detailed 15mm German and Russian infantry, with Americans on the way. No word of British, though. They do have Brits in 1/72 scale.

@ThePaintingClinic 11 лет назад

Just a standard one with a hex palm rest. You can get micro drills cheap on Amazon. Check out my pinning vid.

@bogusbyte 13 лет назад

Nice video as always.... learning somting new every time from watching....

@Hammerpaints 13 лет назад

very very nice ty my friend will watch agin and agin loved it and paint job well done

@ThePaintingClinic 12 лет назад

@lukazila111 True, but they were not always there. I've done that to tanks before, but I was running a little low on decals.

@Sonnypjim09 12 лет назад

@ThePaintingClinic Thanks for the quick and enlightening response. Just checked on their site, it seems the British late war 15mm infantry are "in the pipeline" so hopefully out soon. :) After spending some time looking around on RU-vid/Google, the 15mm German & Soviet infantry do look very well detailed for their size as you said. I think you have helped with my decision (In part to the awesome looking Shermans you painted!) Gonna go for 15mm scale I think. Thanks!

@Joeknow77 11 лет назад

Never mind brown velvet . Could not get video to play when I originally asked ..great stuff keep it up

@ThePaintingClinic 11 лет назад

If it's lighter in color than your basecoat, yes, but I don't know what color or brand to which you refer.

@scaleModelAddict 13 лет назад

Nie job man. Really looks bigger than 15mm. Nice turntable too. :)

@ThePaintingClinic 13 лет назад

@Luk4zguy97 Yes. Model and Game Color line.

@ThePaintingClinic 13 лет назад

@gyrusse 10 max. Putting together a late war list and US get crappy tanks so I have to add more infantry.

@bazZy33K 13 лет назад

I've seen lots and lots of tank mini's on youtube, but these are in a league of their own... Excellent work there! =) BTW Artists prerogative ftw! ;)

@zezorc 9 лет назад

Nice tutorial, can't wait to see more! Are you planning on doing other 15mm videos? (did anyone say "germans"?)

@planthi80 7 лет назад

outstanding.....................stuff!

@casualcurtis2501 7 лет назад

Ethan Ton thanks for letting me know

@ThePaintingClinic 11 лет назад

Yes.

@uro_0111 6 лет назад

What colours references do you use to paint tank tracks? Flat brown and olive grab?

@Sonnypjim09 12 лет назад

Insanely great detail with these minis! I plan on collecting either 15mm scale or 20mm (1/72nd) scale sometime soon - most likely a British armoured company. But torn between what to collect in scale... The 15mm Shermans look around 6.5cm in length and around 3cm wide. Are they really that big? If so, may go for them instead of 20mm, was not wanting to get miniatures with barely any detail (was concerned about the infantry in 15mm) but the tanks and crew look fine in this vid.

@ravingmad8 13 лет назад

Awesome work. I wish youtube still used the Star rating system so I could give you 5! I've been on the fence about starting FoW I want to do something a bit different so I'm thinking about doing a British armored car company. If you have a Staghound or Daimler lying around and want to do a tutorial I'd appreciate it.

@KossolaxtheForesworn 9 лет назад

reminds me of when I put together revell tanks as a kid. I dont think none of them still exist tho.

@claytonmcclain182 8 лет назад

round thing's are air vents. nice builds.

@9bstar 9 лет назад

wow.... I wish i knew how to use/make a wash to make my german panther 1/56 model look more realistic. My tank is Sand dune beige or something

@MAlgol 11 лет назад

Excellent video! Is there something special about that floor wax or can i use any? And do you just paint it on with a brush?

@MMODoubter 11 лет назад

Good video. You mentioned using Future floor wax for the gloss coats. What is the dilution you used?

@GYRUSS 13 лет назад

Nice work....How many tanks do you need to complete?

@xpluscollectorscrew 2 года назад

Uhm I used vallejo dark wash and the q-tips do nothing to take the wash off, is there a reason for this and if so how can i take it off in a controlled manner without stripping the paint underneath?

@FforforGamingDK 11 лет назад

you can make a list of what colors you use?

@CapitalNick 7 лет назад

Just an esthetic tip: When applying the flag, try to put it on the side of the vehicle so it looks like it is moving forward into battle. Never retreating :)

@ezgreviews6775 7 лет назад

CapitalNick well it's up to him

@Generalsplatton 13 лет назад

WOW, you do excellent wok bro! I love your attention to detail.

@ThePaintingClinic 11 лет назад

I believe so.

@FforforGamingDK 11 лет назад

when do you do something more flames of war?

@yajatkumar9929 7 лет назад

what is the name of kit and how much it costs?

@VincenzoMondello 11 лет назад

Great video it will help me a lot. :) Hey ThePaintingClinic can you do a video on how to paint US WW2 M10 Tank Destroyer. Thanks Vince

@Eflightheli 10 лет назад

can you do a tutorial on how to paint german camo on a Stug.

@warpaint9385 5 лет назад

Are you wiping the wash off the tank with dry cotton bud? It looks dry. Thought maybe you had some nail polish remover on there. I've used that before to wipe wash from a model.

@bulgymallard1232 11 лет назад

Actually, Allied Command set out a combat field manual saying that mounting spare treads or sandbags infront of your tank did little to stop a shell....

@Joeknow77 11 лет назад

What color green and brand is that ? I have a walker 41 I am getting ready to build

@felixlind4499 11 лет назад

@LordDickBelvedere 2 года назад

Seriously struggling to find 15mm decals like these anywhere

@justinyong9047 8 лет назад

I was just wondering, what type of glue do you use to assemble plasic tanks?If it is plastic glue, what brand would you recommend?

@ThePaintingClinic 8 лет назад

+Justin YongZH Tamiya Extra Thin plastic cement.

@comissar1998 11 лет назад

were they primed at all first??

@grancapitan81 12 лет назад

What are the colors that you use the brush to dry? thanks

@felixlind4499 11 лет назад

Thx

@ThePaintingClinic 11 лет назад

It's not diluted. Use it straight out of the bottle.

@mikewazowski5116 10 лет назад

I use USA olive drab

@jonnycatland1987 11 лет назад

Do you airbrush or paint on the future floor wax?

@mc1csmo 9 лет назад

Can you post the website for the decals you used? I've tried to search for 1d4 enterprises, and not getting the right results :)

@Cander5142 10 лет назад

Should you put another future gloss coat between the two brown washes?

@ThePaintingClinic 10 лет назад

It's not necessary.

@jonroberts493 2 года назад

What size bit do you use?

@CodMillo 5 лет назад

do you think can i remove acrylic wash with cotton swab like you? or i need different type such enamel wash?

@ThePaintingClinic 5 лет назад

You can't remove an acrylic wash once it dries.

@ritabarry6006 11 лет назад

15mm, is that around 72nd scale? pls reply

@user-go7in2qq6c 4 года назад

Which company makes these models?

@ajsung2000 11 лет назад

Will plastic glue work?

@Timbucktoo32 10 лет назад

Did you glue two painted surfaces together or do you scrape paint away? Reason I ask is, I purchased that Extra Thin Cement you use and am not sure what it's capable of. Great video

@ThePaintingClinic 10 лет назад

Scrape the paint away. It interferes with the bond.

@Luk4zguy97 13 лет назад

you using Valejo paints?

@pbdimitri 12 лет назад

did you prime those?

@jmateos0411 9 лет назад

What is the specific brand of floor wax you use? Incredible job on those tanks btw! I just saw your video and now you have me wanting to buy my own set and paint them!

@ThePaintingClinic 9 лет назад

Jorge Mateos Pledge.

@jmateos0411 9 лет назад

I'm curious, and my apologies for not knowing but is it scented like pine or lemon? lol, or non scented? And if you use it in your airbrush is it easy clean up like acrylic paints? Thanks for the reply btw.

@ThePaintingClinic 9 лет назад

Jorge Mateos It doesn't have any added scent. You need to clean your airbrush well afterwards or it will lock your needle.

@jmateos0411 9 лет назад

Thanks!

@TheLukemcdaniel 6 лет назад

I fail to see how sound quality would effect any copyright issues here, since the only background music is the intro which has been in virtually -all- of your other videos with no issue...

@ThePaintingClinic 6 лет назад

There WAS music thru the whole thing. RU-vid has tools that can scrub out the copyrighted parts.

@pdepaolis 10 лет назад

Is it necessary to use an enamel wash over the clear coat for it to wipe off like that?

@ThePaintingClinic 10 лет назад

Yes, sort of... Without the clear coat the wash would stain the paint and less would come off. It will still come off, just not to the same degree as if you clear coat first.

@timfromengland2813 7 лет назад

What do you mean by 'air brush'? What kit do I need to do that?

@joelackers5104 7 лет назад

Tim from England an airbrush that's what you need :)

@Maximilian178 10 лет назад

Wow these Sherman Models look nice, do these models fit into any scale like 1:72 or 1:76? I never saw them in stores here. ^_^

@ThePaintingClinic 10 лет назад

These are 1/100th. They make 1/72nd as well.

@Maximilian178 10 лет назад
