Model-Making: Materials and Methods

Useful features of the book include: The different uses of models in various disciplines The sequence of making; planning and construction, creating surfaces, painting and finishing Methods of casting, modelling and working with metals Step-by-step accounts of the making of specially selected examples Simple techniques without the need for expensive tools or workshop facilities A 'Directory' of a full range of materials, together with an extensive list of suppliers
