About this guide: Lifecolor Painting Guide Vol.1
There are three articles in this first issue, plus some extra details offering a lot more.
The first article by the well-known Master Christos Katselos is about painting a 1/35 scale WWII Soviet Female Sniper in a Scenic Setting in over 18 pages with two pages of historical data. There are 62 step-by-step photos on how to paint flesh, hair, eyes, WWII Russian uniforms, leather equipment, the metal and wooden parts of rifles and how to paint and weather the bricks and other items on the scenic base representing a part of a ruined factory.
The second article was done at Mr Black Publications’ Studio and is about painting a German figure in 2½ hours. Here we have all the necessary information for painting a 1/35 scale Panzer Crewman and a Panzer Grenadier in winter uniforms. Check out the painting process and mixes for painting Black, White, Field Grey, flesh, leather, boots, a whitewashed helmet, and more. The bases are for display purposes only.
The well-known Master, Martin Hughes, owner of the “Scale War Machines” YouTube channel wrote the third article. Martin explains in detail how to create Rust, Mould and Decay on a 1/24 scale Volkswagen Golf GTI. This is the first of a two-part feature that will conclude in the next volume and feature a Volkswagen Beetle. 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.
