Topics covered include working from and making your own scale drawings; home moulding; constructing a miniature vacuum-forming machine; detailing cockpits, wheel wells and control surfaces; obtaining realistic natural metal and other finishes; making decals and a host of other tips which will be equally useful both to the experienced modeller and the novice..."
