Following on the heals of Verlindens gorgeous SHOWCASE No.1, no.2 continues the series by presenting us with seven spectacular works of art by masters of the (miniature) universe like Francois Verlinden, Eddy Janssens, Lewis Pruneau, and Jef Verswijvel. Stunning color photography captures up-close the amazing levels of detail heaped upon these scale models, all of which are presented in very attractive and realistic diorama settings. From a M*A*S*H* field diorama complete with a potato-pealing Private, to a fully decked-out Opel Blitz on holiday. Another noteworthy feature is an insanely ambitious Vietnam era 1:35 scale diorama featuring a scratch-built U.S. command & communication gunboat inspecting a Vietnamese sampan on the Mekong Delta, overshadowed by rain-forest riverbanks. For those who admire the sleak lines of supersonic military jets, a prizewinning diorama depicting a super-detailed 1:32 scale TF-104G Starfighter conversion is featured, complemented by scratch-b! uilt ground service equipment. All of this and more to please anyone who is fascinated with military miniatures, art, or military history.
