Scale Model Handbook: Scale Modelling Manual Vol.7 (English, 24 pages)

This is the seventh Modelling Manual in our relatively new series about scale modelling where our aim is to bring a lot of concentrated information about painting and general modelling techniques for all modellers at a competitive retail price.
Each manual will deal with a specific topic in detail, offering a lot of different approaches and techniques and, in most cases, written by one author. The contents will be carefully selected and presented in a way that all readers should find something new to try and to adapt to their own methods. Each book will have high quality photos and a detailed text so the reader can easily follow the progress of the assembly and painting of each theme, to help adopt new modelling techniques and different approaches.
In previous editions the length of each theme was limited due to the number of pages taken for other content, but here there are no such limitations. Each theme will be presented in a most detailed and explanatory manner so there will be no omissions or unanswered questions.
Depending on the themes and contents, real painted colour chips of hues and mixes will be added with information on how to use them. In this series we will include various modelling aspects from Historic and Fantasy, Scale Models, Dioramas, Vignettes, Figures, Busts, Techniques and History You Can Model.
In this issue well cover the detailed painting process of a Viking large 1/10 scale bust (with some fantasy elements) from the well-known South Korean company Nuts Planet. The master artist Ernesto Reyes Stalhuth explains in 28 pages, his painting process that includes how to use paintbrushes, the airbrush and a wet palette. Please note that he also wrote down the approximate mixing proportions for brush painting using a wet palette, and for airbrushing (exact match). All these are covered in 91 step-by-step photos.
