An in-depth look at the creation of four models is included -The Type 45 destroyer HMS Daring (Dragon) -The pre-war aircraft carrier USS Wasp (Aoshima) -The River-class frigate HMS Nadder (Starling Models) and -The 'pocket battleship' Admiral Graf Spee (Academy). With a focus on the popular kit scales of 1\/700 and 1\/350 in the waterline style, this book demonstrates the techniques used in building model ships, from the basic to the more complex, larger-scale models requiring many differing skills. There are chapters on the fundamentals such as building resin kits, painting and weathering, rigging and creating a water effect. It provides guidance on more advanced techniques such as the use of photo-etched parts and creating rough-water effects. Finally, it is packed with helpful tips and finishing touches, such as making flags and how to take professional-standard photographs of your completed model.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMike McCabe has been building models for fifty years, with half of that time almost exclusively on model ships.
