AMMO's latest products for April
Encyclopedia of Figure Modeling Techniques Vol. II
softcover
112 full-colour pages
€ 29.50
Volume 2 of the Encyclopedia of Figures focuses on the most appropriate materials, procedures, and techniques for bringing a miniature to life and painting. Once we have learned the elements of visual languages, such as colour, lighting, shape and texture in the first volume, it is time to learn about the painting techniques that allow us to apply these elements to the figure at scale.
What is a binder? How to dissolve the paint to make a glaze? What do I have to do to get a very saturated colour? Each material has its own characteristics and properties, which are necessary to know in order to obtain the best results.
For this reason, once again, the best painters on the international scene have carried out research in this volume to understand the mysteries of painting and make this hobby easier and more fun.
The book is structured according to the three most widely used procedures worldwide: acrylic, oil and mixed media that combines both, as well as the use of pigments and fillers. For its structure, the use of the two most important tools has also been taken into account: the brush and the airbrush, or the alternation of both in different sequences.
And finally, and intimately linked to the procedures and tools, all the techniques that will allow the painter to have a wide range of resources are explained: creating gradients, glazes, washes, cool casts, sketching and a long etcetera.
