We have hobby shops, model clubs, competitions and the Internet, but these tend to be social outlets. When we are actually performing the hobby of building and painting a model (be it figure, plane, tank or ship), we are generally alone with nobody to refer to.
Books and Internet discussion groups can be helpful for picking up tips and techniques, but there is no substitute for actually seeing a modelling technique being performed. If a picture is worth a thousand words, a video is worth many more!
Andrea Miniatures has produced a CD with around 50 short videos on the subject of painting metal figures with acrylics. In reality, the techniques are equally valid for resin and plastic figures too (with the possible exception of priming).
The CD starts with a panoramic view of a stunning 1/35 scale diorama of Andrea's Type VII U-Boat. A series of short clips run through the history of figure models, requirements for a workspace, tools, adhesives, and assembly techniques. A longer video on painting theory is next.
The real focus of the CD is painting the figure. A series of videos, each several minutes long, break down the painting of the face, garments, leather and wood into easily digested chunks. Each section includes a practical demonstration of the techniques on a 90mm Andrea figure. Plenty of time is spent showing the mixing of paints and the application of layers of colours, light and shade.
The CD is capped off with a discussion about bases and display, plus some more examples of completed figures. Production quality is first rate, with excellent lighting, close-up shots, clear voiceovers and a pleasant soundtrack of classical music.
