THE MILITARY MODELLER'S COMPENDIUM

KEN JONES

ARGUS BOOKS
1992

Military Modelling is the art of recreating, in miniature, all aspects of military life, from the colour and pageantry of uniforms and processions to the ferocity and fury of the battlefield.

In this book, Ken Jones, editor of Military Modelling magazine and a celebrated exponent of the hobby, provides a comprehensive and practical guide and compendium to military modelling. He covers all the essential information — scales, ratios, research, tools, materials - and describes how to apply these techniques to create military figurines, including flat and round figure painting and scratchbuilding. He also gives advice on modelling military vehicles, both kits and conversions, and on creating dioramas.

Illustrated throughout with black and white photographs, and a colour section which demonstrates step-by-step painting techniques, The Military Modelling Compendium is the definitive guide to this fascinating hobby.
