Dear friends,
At last our new Painting Guide vol.2 is Out! Check it out HERE!
ABOUT THIS GUIDE
Sang-Eon Lee used Vallejo Model Color acrylics for painting Johannes Erwin Eugen Rommel “The Desert Fox” bust (LM-BS002) from Life Miniatures. Inside you’ll discover how he painted a realistic looking head with acrylics using the artist’s Planar Face Painting System… Or “painting by numbers” if that’s a more familiar term to you, and a realistic WWII Uniform in exquisite detail. The innovation here is that every possible effort has been made to include the paints of many of the companies producing acrylic colours especially for brush painting miniatures. Herein we have the exact matches of equivalent (or similar) colours, or the Editor’s suggestions for approximate colours, hues and mixes, to achieve the same excellent results as the Artist.
We have used and tested the 10 series of paints of participating companies AK-Interactive (3rd Generation and Old Figure Series), Andrea Miniatures, Vallejo Acrylics (Model Color and Panzer Aces), Scale75 (Scalecolor, Warfront and Artist), Jo Sonja, Kimera Kolors and Lifecolor.
