Artikelname: Advanced Aviation Modelling
Artikelbeschreibung:

Today’s model aircraft kits are more advanced than ever, including levels of detail unimaginable a few years ago. Yet there is still much that cannot be reproduced ‘out of the box’ and enthusiastic modellers are attracted by advanced techniques and materials to increase the realism of their models further still.The techniques described in this book will enable the modeller to improve detail, create versions of a type not offered by the kit manufacturer, recreate realistic weathering, even battle damage, and to create parts from scratch in a variety of materials.

Topics include: · Using brass-etch detail · Scratchbuilding detail · Making and using vac-form parts and kits · Combining kits · Making parts from resin · Creating realist battle damage · Making decals · Weathering · Making display bases

Artikelname: Advanced Aviation Modelling (Scutts)
Artikelbeschreibung: This is the second in the new Modelling Manual series which sets out to help the more experienced modeller to improve techniques and expand their modelling horizons. Working with models like the MIG27 Fulcrum, the A-10, and the WW1 Roland Walfisch the reader is shown how with patience and care these and other models can be superdetailed to a very high standard. Very detailed colour photographs and a concise but explanatory text show the modeller how to turn a basic kit model into a show-stopper.

Artikelname: Flying Radio-Controlled Model Aircraft
Artikelbeschreibung: Flying radio-controlled model aircraft is one of the most enjoyable and absorbing hobbies that there is. It combines the fun of building and maintaining a real miniature aircraft with the challenge of flying it just like the real thing, and keeping the appropriate distance between the aircraft and the ground at all times! But the early stages of the hobby can be a steep learning curve, and it is all too easy to be put off by early mishaps.This book explains the principles of model flight in an easy-to-read text. It is a flight manual for any pilot of a fixed-wing model aircraft and includes details of internal combustion and electric-powered flight. It gives all the information required to become a successful pilot in the shortest possible time.

Artikelname: How to Build and Modify Resin Model Aircraft Kits
Artikelbeschreibung: Resin model kits and conversion parts allow modellers to build unusual and obscure aircraft and aircraft variations. However, working with resin requires different techniques and materials that modellers may not be familiar with. Using step-by-step construction photos and a detailed text, this book gives modellers the information they need to confidently tackle any resin model aircraft project. Coverage includes a discussion of what resin is and how castings are produced, along with specific construction techniques, detailed information on tools and airbrushes, scales, glues and paints, conversions, resin and bare metal and how to properly display finished models. The techniques shown apply to any resin model kit or conversion, and much of the information applies to all model types and materials. With very little information available to help modellers build resin kits, this book will fill a gap on the shelves of many aero modellers.
