Inhaltsangabe

Model building is a very unique hobby, it is one of the rare hobbies that cross all social, income and even religious bases. Modelers unite online and in person in local clubs, builder chapters and more. You can go to a show and see an experienced builder giving advice to a novice. We are a hobby of helpers and historians. From science fiction to military history to hot rods and even those admired kit bashers who take scrap kits and make them something special. We all do it as we have a deep passion to take several hundred and sometimes several thousand pieces of plastic, and use glue, paint and hours of hard work, and a careful eye to create a model that impresses. But who are all of these men and women who do this, this book and the accompanying companions that are going to be made are designed to show who they are. I think there is a backbone to the model kit industry. One that sadly I think is largely ignored. Magazines showcase a few builds here and there, however no one has ever really showcased... Well you and I. They guys and gals who clear a space on the kitchen table, who clean out the basement storeroom to make that small model building space.This book features the work of over sixty home based builders, along with some icons of the business. Each builder is featured with their work and a little bit about them, and why they build or even how they got into the hobby. So what you will get to see is a unique look at what are some truly awesome builds that cover all subjects, and even includes dioramas, and how to’s.
