Sorry, but it is in Spanish... but the last two articles (if you have very sharp eyes) could be on English (?)...

This issue is completed with an interviu with JJ Flashman, staff of Knight Model and more articles about painting and modelling...

Fantasy Dimension... a magazine



J.J. kindly reminds me that talking about Spanish miniatures and not talking about Action Press is something silly.

Action Press is a publishing company that especializes in everything related with modelling and painting miniatures. Right now they publish five magazines devoted to the hobby:

Euro Modelismo:
Monthly magazine dedicated to static scale kits.
In its pages you will find photographic references, step by step workshops, international contests galleries and news.
The scales go from the 1/700 or smaller of navy kits to 1/16 or bigger of racing bikes or vinyl movie kits, without forgeting the common 1/72, 1/48 or 1/35.

Euro Figuras:
Magazine dedicates exclusively to scale figures.
It is four-monthly.

Euro Uniformes:

Magazine focused in documentation of uniforms, with huge quantity of photos and drawings.
Our sources are private collections, museums and reenactments from all over the world.
Sadly this magazine has ended with issue number 40.

Fantasy Dimension:
http://www.fantasydimension.com/
Fantasy Dimension is the new publication of Accion Press dedicated to the fantastic and sci-fi modellers. In this magazine you can find articles of the best modellers about painting, modelling, building or scenery techniques.

Panzer Aces:
Magazine dedicated to static scale kits and scenes of tanks and other armoured vehicles. Bimonthly. Right now is the only magazine with text in English. In USA you can find this publication under the Armor Models name.

Action Press also has a huge collection of monographics devoted to the artistic aproach to the hobby... Its books about uniformology, painting techniques, modelling, etc.. are a must in the bookshelves of any modeller.

The good news is that they are thinking in translating Fantasy Dimension into English, German and French languages.

Game Forces number 13 in Spanish: World Expo in Girona



The lastest Spanish issue of Game Forces is dedicated to the World Expo 2008 in Gerona (Girona in Catalan)... Sadly I haven't this issue and I could not made to visit it... but I have checked the web and have a look at it on Quimera and it looks amazing... and full of photos and very little text (that it is Spanish, sadly for you).




Game Forces Magazine in English





It appears that Game Forces, one of the most beatiful and useful magazines in Spanish is taking the leap to the English world... In its webpage appears a link to a First Issue in English, with a beatiful cover and some mini example of the content... as an avid reader of the Spanish issues I only could recoment it...

The articles are step by step progress of some of the top painters in Spain and abroad, one inteview with an sculptor, painter or company's owner and useful tips of modeling and painting. Former contributors has been Banshee, J.J. JMPN, Angel Giraldez, etc...
