AK Interactive - Weathering Magazine - Issue 2 The 2nd issue of the AK Interactive weathering magazine is now available in the UK. The first issue sold out very quickly and we are unable to get anymore so if you would like a copy of issue 2 we would suggest ordering quickly. Issue 2 concentrates on the appplication of Dust, Dirt and Earth and once again has some stunning pieces from Mig Jimenez. It contains 63 colour pages. This time we will study the effects of Dust and Dirt using a wide range of products and painting techniques demonstrated by some of the world's best modelers. The magazine explains in depth how to apply these effects on all types of models including figures, helicopters, trains, sci-fi and of course tanks. We will also enjoy again the company of our workmate Akatsya. The modeler will want to collect each issue to create a bibliography of techniques, effects, references and inspiration. If you enjoyed FAQ2, then this is the magazine that you are searching for.
