Description

All you need to paint steampunk miniatures!

Steampunk is a sub-genre of science fiction that typically features steam-powered machinery, especially in a setting inspired by industrialized Western civilization during the 19th century. Therefore, steampunk words are often set in an alternate history of the 19th century's British Victorian era or American "Wild West," in a post-apocalyptic future during which steam power has regained mainstream use, or in a fantasy world that similarly employs steam power.

Steampunk perhaps most recognizably features anachronistic technologies or retro-futuristic inventions as people in the 19th century might have envisioned them, and is likewise rooted in the era's perspective on fashion, culture, architectural style, and art. Such technology may include fictional machines like those found in the works of H. G. Wells and Jules Verne, or the modern authors Philip Pullman, Scott Westerfeld, and China Mieville.

This book includes a complete painting guide for painters who want to learn or improve their painting skills, from the preparation of the figure to the most advanced brush and airbrush painting techniques, including highly detailed step by step processes with more than 100 pictures.

Miniatures are supplied unpainted and assembly may be required.
