    About this ebook

    Making Small Scale Models is for those who have never made a model before or want to develop or increase their skills. From cutting a straight line to making a scaled human figure that 'lives', through to creating beautifully detailed buildings and finely detailed furniture, the book takes you through each stage of the process. Topics covered include methods for a wide range of disciplines, from theatre design to railway modelling to interior design; a practical guide to tools and materials; basic techniques for constructing scale models using simple, readily available materials; step-by-step guides to projects designed to practise and develop skills; and advanced ideas focus on colour, texture and form to bring models to life. Superbly illustrated with 111 colour photographs.
