Description
The secrets of terrain modelling are revealed by Richard Windrow, one of the world's leading modellers. Everything from castles to the destruction wrought upon modern cities by war is covered in this accessible book. Explore the difficulties of creating a desert landscape, from the sandstone of Arizona to the wastelands of North Africa. Discover the handiwork needed to create the barbed wire death traps of No-Man's Land and the wilderness of Russia in winter. The variety of seasons, environments and historical periods are detailed in over 200 step-by-step photographs answering a modeller's 'how to' questions. Accompanying these photographs is an invaluable guide to the materials and techniques needed to create top-quality terrain, providing the essential reference volume for the military and non-military modeller alike.

Person
Richard Windrow, born in 1938, has pursued military hobbies, including modelling , since childhood. After service in the 1st Bn. Queen Royal Regiment from 1957 to 1959, he became involved in the recovery of shot-down WWII aircraft for the Kent Battle of Britain Museum, before becoming an amateur rally driver. He has restored and showed a number of wartime US military vehicles, but has now returned to his first love, 1/35-scale military vehicles and the building of dioramas in which to display them.
