If you are an aircraft enthusiast, you cannot miss this new book in the Remove Before Flight series, which collects Vallejo’s publications related to aircraft modeling. Thanks to expert modelers Manel Blasco and Manuel Soriano, you will learn several tips and techniques to recreate wear effects on aircrafts. Through nine chapters, the authors describe the process of assembling and painting aircrafts, as well as techniques to simulate the weathered look characteristic of fighter planes in different eras. The models, in 1/48 and 1/32 scale, are subjected to a wide range of techniques and processes, both with brush and airbrush, to achieve paint schemes worn by use, as well as wear caused by the course of time, environmental conditions and different effects such as rust, fluid spills and exhaust stains. A real treasure in the form of a book for hobby enthusiasts, as they will inspire you and teach you advanced techniques to take your skills to the next level.
