Diorama Builders... BUY THIS BOOK!,
By Keith Magee (Plano, TX United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Roy Porter's Model Buildings Masterclass (Modelling Masterclass) (Hardcover)
This is a wonderful work by an Englishman who not only lived through and participated in WWIIl, but also became a master at modeling that world. Roy shows you all his tricks, such as creating your own molds, building ruins, detailing and weathering, and subject selection. The book is chocked full of great color photos, and includes many step-by-step guides on the various projects. You will get a lot of great ideas in this book, and even an experienced old pro like me will find many new useable tips. The books is handsome, well written, and highly informative... overall, quite enjoyable, and certainly the best diorama building book in my large library!

Superb book on model making,
By danny boy "dbswongv" (Singapore) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Roy Porter's Model Buildings Masterclass (Modelling Masterclass) (Hardcover)
The models here are evocative of an earlier era in model making. Porter's models, buildings, vehicles and figures are extremely well made, very neat and precise, and have a certain charm to them which perfectly captures the period of England, especially around WWII.
The book gives great wealth of details on English/some European buildings and here are some great ideas for creating dioramas, especially the bombed out suburban house with fantastic details. Highly recommended.
