• Nightwing: Renegade
• Nightwing: Year One - Robin moves from boy to man wonder as he takes the guise of grown-up crime fighter Nightwing in this origin story. Nightwing's fans will enjoy the exploration of what made him who he is. The story starts with the break between Batman and his sidekick, a result of Robin's conflicting responsibilities: to college; his super group, the Teen Titans; and Batman himself. The rest of the story follows Dick Grayson's journey to becoming Nightwing. The narration laid on top of the story, coming from an older and wiser Grayson, adds emotional resonance to the events. The tensions between Batman and his young protégé are nicely portrayed, as are Grayson's feelings of regret and bitterness following the break. Finally, Nightwing confronts the new Robin, Jason Todd, revealing a good deal about the character and his changing self-image. The tale's episodic quality occasionally drains its energy as Grayson's encounters with a circus lion, the Joker and Batgirl aren't always intimately involved with his changing character, but the story pulls through, arriving at satisfying confrontations between Nightwing and the most important characters in his life.
• Painting Miniature Female Figures: The Techniques - When painting a female figure, one should simply be familiar with the appropriate techniques in order to obtain the picturesque effects that portray finesse, avoiding sharp lights and shadows used on military figures. Airbrush techniques, almost always feared by the majority of painters, provide really surprising finishes that can later be applied to other types of tasks. The sensuality, glamour and eroticism that occasionally accompany female figures cannot be forgotten, making this publication an essential guide for overcoming the fear of this type of figure painting that can provide great satisfaction once the pieces are finished. This is undoubtedly a new style that breaks away from traditional techniques that are repeated in conventional figure painting. The publication is designed in a very visual way, accompanying the reader with brief and concise explanations on the use of different techniques, illustrative step-by-step processes. The examples described include how to paint figures ranging from 30mm fantasy miniatures to large scale figures, as well as specific techniques for simulating skin, hair, lips and everything that comprises the female figure as a whole, in which sensuality is a key factor.
