It is this skill that gives the model its distinctive look and feel and separates the good model form the truly great one.

Putting the model together is the easy part! The tricky thing for any modeller is achieving the desired level of finish and the skills required to do so. If you have got into modelling on your own, and don't have a knowledgeable person to guide you, then you can't do any better than this book. Edmundson writes without ambiguity so the steps are easy to understand, and with the clear photographs of every stage, it is hard to put a foot wrong. Such a valuable modelling guide.
