PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Andy Belsey managed to turn his childhood hobby into a career and has been dbuilding architectural models for 40 years. His passion for the Great War began while researching his family's involvement, which in turn led to the creation of his World War 1 trench models. Although this is his first book, he has written many magazine articles and blog entries about his work. He is known for developing simple construction methods that produce excellent end results and he is always finding ways to refine his work.
The skill and detail in Andy's models is an absolute delight, and he shares his skills in a host of well explained hints and tips of how to build your own WW1 trench models, adding the lovely WW1 Tommy's War figures, plus doing some straightforward conversions with them as well. You will also gain a greater understanding of the way the famous trench systems of the Western Front were constructed by the 3 main nations involved, Britain, France and Germany. Definitely one I'd recommend. -- Robin Buckland * Military Model Scene * Wonderfully presented, great pictures, background information and tips. My congratulations to Andy Belsey, I say you've created a gem. * Tommy's War Modellers Group * A very good book for anyone interested in this conflict. The construction of every type of work on the Western Front is presented in great detail. This then gives instruction on how to achieve the same result.The illustrations are superb and th whole book is well worth a place on the shelf. Brilliant publication. -- Anthony Kirkham * Customer Review * Excellent title, packed with information & good-quality photographs, & laid out in an easy to read format. Step-by-step descriptions of all the vignettes included, & tools, techniques & colour guides. Highly recommended! -- Chris Oldfield * Customer Review *
