AK Learning 15 Modelling from Scratch (AK527)

Sooner or later every modeller hits a part they can't buy — a bespoke greeble, a custom base, a whole scratch-built vehicle. This is AK Interactive's dedicated guide to getting there, walking you through the tools, materials and thinking behind building from raw plastic rather than a kit. What's inside How to plan a scratch-build before you cut anything Working with styrene sheet, rod and strip to fabricate your own parts Using putty and filler to sculpt details a kit can't provide Practical projects that build the core techniques step by step It's a focused, no-nonsense read rather than a picture book — ideal once you've got a few kits under your belt and want to start building the parts nobody sells. English-language edition, 88 pages, softcover.
