Dioramas F.A.Q. 1.3 Extension

Dioramas F.A.Q. 1.3 Extension Storytelling, Composition and Planning

This Volume 1.3 extends the Dioramas FAQ book series and explores every aspect of diorama creation and planning. What makes a good story and how can one convey it with models? Where to find a good idea and how to develop this idea into a successful project? How to compose a diorama so that it tells its story best and looks good at the same time? How can you effectively use colours, figures, accessories, backgrounds and bases in your composition? How to convert a historical photograph into a three-dimensional scene? How to plan a box diorama? This seemingly theoretical topic is treated in the most practical way, making it accessible and useful for every model maker.

All topics are clearly explained with concrete examples, drawings, photographs and step-by-step instructions.

528 illustrations include over 300 AFV, aircraft, ship, car, SF and figure models and dioramas by Van Gills, one of the world's best model builders of our time.
