A passion
by Mig Jimenez
S
ince I began making scale models more than 25 years ago, my main interest has always
been the weathering and all that this word means in modeling. Maybe the fascination
with the weathering is due to the difficulty in achieving these effects. The same is true of
a climber who doesn’t feel attraction to a small hill, but desire for a tall and difficult mountain.
The modeler will never feel satisfied with a clean model without effects, without realism, and
definitively without magic. He will always look for the most difficult subjects, the unique and
special projects, and for these he will use his products and appropriate techniques to meet the
challenge of his imagination.
Until the FAQ2 was published, a publication had never been 100% focused on the painting
techniques. Although in the last few years, most of modelers have shown special interest
in all that is related to the painting. All they are aware of is that what makes the difference
between a boring model and an exceptional one is in fact the painting & weathering. This
is not an option, since all scale models need to be painted. But in spite of everything, the
existing publications focused in the painting are not abundant.
This publication begins in an important moment of the history of modeling, a time when all
over the entire world, painting & weathering has occupied the place that it deserves in this
hobby. We will discover throughout these pages and successive issues, all aspects of the
weathering. From the most classic techniques through to the most complex and difficult
techniques, we will show different perspectives from the best modellers explaining how
to make weathering with different techniques. It will be “The Weathering Magazine” and
here, you will find all that you need to know to bring realism to your projects. Although
this first edition has more pages to celebrate the inauguration, each new issue will have
64 pages filled with articles related to each theme, for this inaugural issue we will explore
rust in many forms. Here you will see techniques not only applied to AFV’s, but also to
ships, robots, trains and also in the future you will find airplanes, figures, and many other
subjects. All areas of modeling will take a place in this space, because each subject can be
useful to learning and also to be used for a possible diorama. Also, you will find numerous
real photo references, vehicle color profiles, and much more information that you can use
as inspiration and as a guide for your projects.
Of course in any important project, it is necessary for a captain to make it reality and
in this case, John Murphy has been directing this exciting work. Besides being a great
modeler and having knowledge of many things, I admire him
for his professional trajectory and his pleasant personality.
And lastly you will notice as soon as you pass this page
lastly,
pass
a
page,
a new character in the magazine that will accompany
us in an amusing and different way in each issue. It
is our pleasure to introduce
Akatsiya. We
have
captured this dream for you, so thinking about
modeling will be something more human and
more touching. Well, in fact the truth is that the
production team has only two options, John
with underwear or Akatsiya, and I believe that
we have chosen well, right?
