Dear friends,
I am pleased to inform you that Scale Modelling Manual Vol.10 IS OUT!
In this issue master artist Sergey Popovichenko explains in detail how he created the bow of an Ancient Ship with scale drawings that include dimensions in mm and how he modelled and coloured the waves around the hull. He’s included a full painting guide for the colours and mediums he used to paint Seil Models’ 54mm Greek Hoplite (SH54034) which, unfortunately is out of production and hard to trace. However, he’s added details of seven figure kits from various producers that can be used in place of the Seil Models figure.

Presented within are Modelling Guides with 50 step-by-step photographs in exquisite detail and a detail text, as part of an overall total of 100 illustrations. Sergey reveals all the secrets on how he scratch built the bow section of the ancient ship and how he painted it, and how he placed it on a scenic base of waves to achieve realism when depicting seawater painted with a combination of acrylic paints and oils. Also, see how he managed to represent realistic flesh tones, fabrics, wood, metals and the Gorgonian emblem on the shield in eleven step-by-step photos.

Thanks are due to the following: AK-Interactive (Fernando Vallejo), Andrea Miniatures (Alexandra Fernandez), Vallejo Acrylics (Alex Vallejo), Scale75 (Xavi Tapias), Kimera Colors (Luca Marchetti and Pietro Balloni), Lifecolors (Alessandro Balbo and Rolando Iezzi), Yannis Papadopoulos and our English Text Editor Ken Jones.

I'd be interested in this if only to see how the sea was created. I have a project I'd like to do that has rough sea as a major element. Does the book go into detail on the creation of the water?
 
Big part of the book is dedicated to how the sea was done and how to paint it realistically with a lot SBS pictures and detailed text. You can see the photos and read the info.

Best Regards
Stelios
