German Autumn Ambush Camo Made EASY! | Beginner-Friendly Tutorial

G’day team!
In this video, we’re airbrushing a late-war autumn ambush camo pattern on a German Panther tank in 1/35 scale. This is the second video in the Panther paint-up series, and we're building on the stowage tutorial from last time (linked below). Whether you're using Tamiya, Zvezda, or any other Panther kit (or even a different German vehicle), this guide will help you confidently paint up that classic 3-tone camo.

This tutorial is made for beginners and modellers looking to build their skills - we keep things simple, go step-by-step, and focus on practical techniques that get great results.

Here’s what we cover:
How to use pre-shading for depth
Applying Dunkelgelb basecoat for best effect
Spraying Schokobraun and Olivegrün camo in a realistic pattern
Tips for cohesive camo and fixing mistakes
Why I finish with AK Interactive Intermediate Gauzy Agent before weathering

You don’t need rare paints or expensive gear - just the basics and a bit of patience.

Perfect for beginners
Step-by-step instructions
Paints used: Vallejo Model Air & AK Interactive (but feel free to substitute)
