Tanker Techniques Magazine. Issue 7: Urban War

We now introduce to you our latest publication, "Tanker", and we are sure that it will herald a new global benchmark for scale modelling magazines. This new approach and concept for our new quarterly magazine, focuses on amazingly realistic paint schemes and finishes, showing you how to accomplish them. We have the very best of modellers from around the world, showing you how to master not only the very latest techniques, but also the old standards too. All this is brought to you in a thoroughly modern publication and with our own inimitable character. The seventh issue of "Tanker Techniques Magazine", the best modelling magazine focused on painting and weathering techniques. Urban warfare has left its print
on the development of new tanks and armoured vehicles. This issue of Tanker is dedicated to creating such an environment for your model. We show how to make a street scene, destroyed and bombed out buildings, etc. This time the focus is more on how to present your model in such environments rather than on the vehicles themselfs. Creating such scenes requires some planning and thinking, but its not as hard as it seems. Already here the last issue of "Tanker", this time focus in conflicts in villages and cities. In this issue we can feel the battle and the sensations of decadence in cities destroyed by the war. We will see how to recreate these environments, buildings and vehicles.
