OverviewModel-making: Materials and Methods focuses primarily on the wide variety of materials that can be employed to make models; those which have been favoured for a while and those which are relatively new.

Useful features of the book include: . The different uses of models in various disciplines . The sequence of making; planning and construction, creating surfaces, painting and finishing . Methods of casting, modelling and working with metals . Step-by-step accounts of the making of specially selected examples . Simple techniques without the need for expensive tools or workshop facilities .
