This was great! I will use this on my 1/72 British armor and a few other 15mm tanks as well. I use the Typhus Corrosion too and I have always felt that the GW shades and effect paints like this are the best of their paint line. Thanks for sharing this.

@@andyshaw5378 hi, I'm kind of new to this hobby, so I hope you don't mind me asking a simple question. :) I was wondering what exactly the 15/20/28 mm is referring to. All I can think of is 15*72, 20*48 and 28*35 is all close to 1 meter. So in this scale 15mm on the model is 1m on the original. Is that what it means or am I wrong here?
@andyshaw5378

@@TwiceEvery14Days yes it’s all about the size. There two ways to describe it metric in mm or imperial 1/?. Typically war gaming is done with figures 28mm (1/56) or smaller. Most of my gaming is with 20mm (1/72) there are some conversion tables on Google which will help. Painting wise the bigger the model the more detail you need to paint. Smaller easier it’s just smaller. Hope that helps.

Also if it isn't my scale, it's a really beautiful model, remember me of the old Roco Minitanks (1/87), also if the most famous model of it was from Matchbox. In an old documentary I saw they said that was scandalous that such a tank had been produced only near the end of the war, when it could've been produced at least two yrs earlier.

Just a comment passing on a discovery from one of his more recent videos: the new agrax and nuln give an effect similar to the old IF you water them down 50% with Lamian. So for a similar effect to his wash in this, you'd want 75% lamian, 25% new wash.

Looks great now I just need some FoW Brits! As a vallejo/army painter replacement for Nurgling Green what would you suggest? The conversion charts Ive seen suggest Middlestone(?) / Green Sky and Scaly Hide / Necrotic green. I'm leaning necrotic green personally.
@SonicSledgehammerStudio
Жыл бұрын
Necrotic Green is probably the closest, or Combat Fatigues for a slightly more grey-touched finish. I also really like Middlestone - it's slightly more yellow than Nurgling Green would be, but that'll still work nicely at this scale.
