Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - the basics of scale modeling
I am a retired school teacher and other than the modeling I did as a child, I consider myself a beginner. This book gave me a lot of up to date info, and now I am able to afford more quality supplies. I am interested primarily in planes I have flown in and sailing ships. This book is a wealth of help for me. sincerely, Ken



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Good Beginner's Book
I found the formatting of the book to be great for reading straight through or as a quick starting reference when in the workshop. There's a lot of nifty tips and tricks throughout the entire book.

However, while actually constructing models, I felt that the book left some more specific questions such as what to do with the landing gear of a plane I'm preparing to airbrush. In defense of the book, the book does cover a lot of ground. To sum it up, buy this book if you want to know about modeling in general, otherwise buy a book that focuses on a specific type of models you wish to build.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - A step-by-step photo guide to scale modeling for bare-bones beginners
Lawrence Hansen compiles The Basics Of Scale Modeling, a step-by-step photo guide to scale modeling for bare-bones beginners. The best models are tiny museum-quality replicas of the real thing: the art lies in capturing the element of realism of the real thing, and it's an art presented by The Basics Of Scale Modeling's techniques culled from FineScale Modeler magazine articles covering the basics. From setting up the initial work area and assembling the tools to planning a project for smooth success, this is a 'must' for any who would start on their very first scale model.
