Scale Modelling Manual Vol.8
Scale Modelling Manual Vol.8
This is the 8th Manual in our new Scale Modelling series 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 so that every reader should find something new to try and to adapt to their own methods. The books have high quality photos and detailed texts, enabling readers to easily follow the progress of assembly and painting methods and help adopt new modelling techniques and different approaches.
In previous editions the length of each subject was limited due to the number of pages taken for other contents, but here there are no such limitations. Each theme will be presented in a most detailed and explanatory way so there will be no omissions or unanswered questions.
Depending on the themes and their content, 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 and Busts to Techniques and history you can model.
In this particular issue we'll cover a part of the WWII Italian Military Forces in Scale by presenting Theodosis Giannakidis Impressive Diorama and one-page article by Mr Black's Team on Acrylic Relevant Colour Sets for WWII Italian Military Armoured Vehicles, Uniforms and Equipment.
In total this book has 70 high quality photos, 40 of which are step-by-step or in-progress sequences, with a very detailed text, so the reader can easily follow the whole procedure in detail from start to finish. The author has included all the sets, accessories, and paint codes he used so the reader can easily identify them. Mr Black Publications Team has added a page with 24 Colour Paint Chips of 4 sets for Italian Military Forces that have been used in Most WWII Theatres of Battle.
Thanks, must go to the following: AK-Interactive (Fernando Vallejo), Vallejo Acrylics (Alex Vallejo & Jaume Ortiz), Lifecolor (Alessandro Balbo & Rolando Iezzi), Yannis Papadopoulos and our English Text Editor Ken Jones.
Special thanks must go to Theodosis Giannakidis who provided us with all the necessary material so this book could be released as a printed work.
