Miniature Shipbuilder 2015
Miniature Shipbuilder 2015
This is my latest publication on the art of miniature ship model building.
It only covers the building of merchant ships.
It has 158 pages (A4) size, 46,421 words, and about 285 images, mainly colour photographs.
IT IS NOT A MOVIE. It will run in computers with Acrobat Reader installed in them. That is most of them, World-wide. Each chapter is complete in itself, so the best way to make use of it, is to just print the part you wish to study at the time
Neither is it really suitable for e-readers or tablets, as it prints at A4 size.
