About this book:
Mike Davidson has years of experience painting miniature military figures and teaching the art to others. Using a combination of hobby paints and oils he is able to create a visual effect that brings life to cast or sculpted figures. In this book Mike takes a commercially produced casting and guides the reader through the process of assembly, painting, and mounting, ending with a figure that would be a proud addition to any collection. Each step is clearly photographed and captioned so the reader may easily follow along. While applied to a particular figure, the lessons and techniques learned from this book will enhance any painting the reader may choose to do.
