Responsibility details are not available.
This item is not a model or a modeling product but a printed magazine. The Weathering Magazine is a themed series in which each issue is devoted to one area of weathering and surface effects. This issue is focused on abandoned, laid-up and decaying machines, that is on a theme that in recent years has been among the most popular subjects for dioramas as well as for stand-alone models.
A wreck or a machine laid up for a long time cannot be painted like an ordinary model with a little extra dust. The surface goes through several stages at once: the paint first fades and goes matte, only then does it start to crack and peel, corrosion spreads from edges, gaps and places where water sits, and to that are added deposits of soil, vegetation and traces of people. The difference between a convincing wreck and a repainted model lies precisely in the order and the degree of these layers — and that is an area where a printed picture guide helps more than a verbal description.
The publication suits modelers who already manage basic building and painting and want to move on to advanced weathering. It is useful for diorama builders too, because an abandoned machine tends to be the dramatic center of a scene. The magazine is suitable as a complement to weathering products — washes, filters, pigments and oil paints — which you do, however, have to obtain separately.
This is a printed publication. It contains no modeling parts, paints or chemicals. The exact extent and the language edition are not stated here.
