There are some great books out there on modeling techniques. However many are simply too expensive for younger modelers to buy. Here's a new, 'Low-Cost' intiative from Xtreme Modelling which should be welcome to ALL groups of modelers.
Xtreme Modelling, publishers of some extremely useful guides to a variety of techniques have just announced the first of a New series - the Black Star handbooks. The first will be:
Advanced Painting Techniques is written by Rubén González and consists of 32 pages in A5 Format..
From the Publisher: In this handbook Rubén show all the weathering techniques for military vehicles, over two base colours - dark yellow and panzer grey simultaneously in the same model. In Ruben’s own words, the techniques he uses are not innovative but what is innovative is the way to present them.
The many finishing techniques covered are:
Filters
Washes
Chipping
Mapping
Dust
Stains of oil, grease and fuel
The medias used are:
Acrylic paints
Enamels
Oils
Pigments
Varnishes
Graphite
As I mentioned in the introduction, one of the selling-points for this new series will be the price, each handbook will retail at 4.50€.
