Airbrushing and Weathering Techniques
by Rob Ferreira (Scratchmod)
Times have changed in the hobby of model building and painting, most
modelers are now starting out using only water-based acrylics. This guide
covers the uses of acrylic colors, with the focus mainly on Acrylicos Vallejo,
pioneers in this field.
The intention is to share the experience in using acrylics with all model
painters, whether they are just starting out or switching over from solvent
based paints.
The information in this book is the result of nearly twenty years working with
Vallejo acrylic colors and auxiliary products and is meant to be used as a
guide and reference.
