LifeColor Painting Guide Vol.2 example

The first article of four pages is by the well-known master Christos Katselos and about painting a 1/24 scale female fantasy figure Genesis in a scenic setting.

In the second article master artist Alessandro Gobbi explains in detail the Non Metallic Metal painting method he uses with step-by-step photos. He is the creator of the Non Metallic Metal Sets that was working on for years and finally released by Lifecolor! Here he uses the Gold Set and focuses on how to achieve the perfect gold metal effect using the colour hues in the set for the Genesis 1/12 scale bust.

Another master modeller, Vincenzo Lanna explains in detail how to paint a German camouflage pattern on a captured Russian tank KV-1 in 10 easy to follow steps using an airbrush and a brush. Here you will also see how to use the Liquid Pigments to make a realistic 1/48 scale model tank.

Talented artist Theodosis Giannakidis has contributed two unique articles to this volume on the secrets of achieving a natural and realistic finish. The first one is on ‘How to Paint Sandbags’ from Black Dog and the second is on ‘How to Paint Wood’ effects on Miniart’s Farm Cart. Both articles have step-by-step photos and detailed captions.

Martin Hughes is a well-known Master and owner of the “Scale War Machines” YouTube channel who wrote our 6th article (Part 2), which concludes the chapter about weathering civilian vehicles. Martin explains in detail how to create Rust, Mould and Decay on a 1/24 scale Volkswagen Beetle. This is the second of a two-part feature; the first part was published in Volume 1. The eight-page article has 20 in-progress photos showing how to get the most of a ‘Rat-look’ on modern civilian cars making extensive use of the airbrush and LifeColor products.
