The Verlinden Way Volume I (scale models and dioramas) By Francois Verlinden
120+ full color photographs

The book that started it all for this accomplished master in the field of scale modeling, this publication is currently in its eighth printing. This amazing book takes us into the tricks and techniques that Francois Verlinden developed himself when there were few others to look to for guidance and inspiration. The book begins by showing us that there are no true secrets to beautiful results in scale modeling, but rather careful attention to proven techniques that work. Francois is universally known in the hobby industry for his own particular style and attention to balance in color, contrasts, and highlights. Beautiful photography by the author brings his work to life in these pages, filled with well over 50 military models and dioramas of every conceivable description. An inspirational piece of work, this book belongs in the collection of every artist, modeler, and military enthusiast.
