orcada Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 I am looking for the best references for painting and revising figures. I am currently working in 1/48 scale, but who knows I might be branching out. Any websites, books, etc. Any help would be appreciative. Thanks, Scott Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Grey Ghost 531 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Shep Paine's "How to build dioramas" has some good, basic instructions for figure painting and modification. It's out of print but you can find used copies on eBay or Amazon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GretarBill Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Hi I´ve had this book for 20 - 30 years and it has a good chapter about figures. But nothing about painting them though. But it is a an overall good refernce book for all kind of modeling. I also have the Shep Pane book and that is a good book. Grétar W. G. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
