Building and painting techniques are shown for different types of façades such as stone, plaster, brick, cement, or concrete and the different types of paths including cobblestone, concrete, asphalt, dirt, and grass surfaces. This complete guide also explains in detail how to make the most common and distinguishing elements found in urban settings such as street lamps, pipes, drains and manholes, signs, wooden or metal elements, and the typical vegetation found growing in urban areas.
This guide also explains in depth the techniques and products used to achieve all kinds of weathering effects that can be seen on buildings and in urban settings, allowing the reader to choose the level of wear and tear to be depicted in the different elements of each scene or diorama.
