>>5852220I highly recommend buying them, but I must say that some of the old ones that I didn’t feel like buying (the dust issue, but the technique I used on the btr is from the newer ones) I found and downloaded it from vk. The 1:72 special is more like a book I think, but usually in every issue they have a 1:72 or war gaming scale article if you only need some weathering theme
>>5852234The waffentrager is from the "1945" issue.
The lacquer vs acrylics is more of a comparison, he uses two fouga magister and paints one with amig metallic acrylics and the other with gunze metal lacquers, and does some paneling. Then he varnishes the planes with the same glossy varnish but leaves a wing without it, and finally does some panel wash and compares the four possible outcomes. Not very interesting and without a clear conclusion outside of “acrylics are more handy and friendly to use” and leave the surface uncoated if you want a weathered plane. They look really similar, although the acrylics have a more noticeable grain. If it was shorter (it’s the longest of the small articles) I would post it but that’s pretty much it
