This is the 16th edition in the Scale Model Handbook. Scale Modelling Manual series, which provides detailed information on painting and general modelling techniques for all model builders. The books contain high-quality photos and detailed texts, allowing readers to easily follow the progress of assembly and painting methods and adopt new modelling techniques and different approaches. This time, Ernesto Reyes Stalhuth explains in detail how he painted the Young Miniatures bust (YM1886) of an officer from the Ostwind combat group, Russia 1943, in 1:10 scale, wearing a splinter camouflage parka. The artist presents a painting guide with 80 step-by-step photos in exquisite detail with explanatory captions, as part of a total of 90 illustrations. The author reveals all the secrets of how he painted the face (18 photos), the hand (7 photos), the cap and sweater (7 photos), the splinter camouflage pattern (35 photos), the binoculars and the Sd.Kfz. badge (9 photos) and the map (5 photos) to achieve a realistic result. The artist used a combination of acrylic paints and acrylic inks.
