THE WEATHERING AIRCRAFT 25 - Acrylics (English)

Description

Description:

The 25th issue of The Weathering Aircraft is now available! This issue focuses on acrylic paints, undoubtedly the most widely used type of paint for aircraft models. With the introduction of the new ATOM products, the process of painting and weathering models has been revolutionized. Acrylics are easy to use, allowing modelers to achieve realistic results with less effort. Their durability also means that other types of paints and weathering products can be applied over them without affecting the underlying layers.

Key Features:

• Ease of Use: Acrylics are easy to apply and help achieve realistic results with less effort, without the health risks associated with harsh chemicals or strong odors.
• Durability: Once dry, acrylic paints are strong and can be coated with other painting or weathering products without any issues.
• Extended Compatibility: AMMO acrylics are compatible with a wide range of products, enhancing the creative possibilities for modelers.

Weathering Effects:

Acrylics can also be used to achieve stunning weathering effects. Their ability to blend colors and build layers without losing their properties allows for a variety of effects, from subtle rust stains to the most intense wear and tear. The range of acrylic-based effects includes paints, washes, filters, varnishes, and more, covering all your weathering needs, just like lacquer or enamel-based products.
