Javier Gomez, a highly talented figure painter of long experience
and excellent reputation, shares the secrets of his success in this
accessible 'how-to' guide to painting miniatures. He takes the
reader step-by-step through the whole process, from choice of
materials (unlike other available guides it is not linked to any
specific figure manufacturer) and preparation of the miniatures to
basing and even advice on photographing the finished item.
Techniques such as dry-brushing, ink-washing, shading and
highlighting are all explained clearly with the help of
step-by-step photographs and colour charts. Specific case studies
tackle a variety of useful subjects across all periods, such as
mixing realistic flesh tones for different races; painting horses;
guns and limbers; Medieval heraldry; Napoleonic uniforms; WW2 and
modern camouflage patterns. Javier also clearly explains how these
techniques and processes can be applied to all the major wargaming
scales, from 40mm down to 6mm. Whatever historical period (or
Sci-fi/Fantasy) and whatever scale the reader is interested in,
this book is an invaluable source of practical advice and
inspiration.
