The Handbook of Model-making for Set Designers describes the entire process of making scale models for stage sets; from the most basic cutting and assembling methods to more advanced skills; including painting; texturing and finishing techniques; and useful hints on presenting the completed model. Many drawings and colour photographs of the writers own work illustrate the text. Some state-of-the-art computerized techniques are described here for the first time in a book of this kind; including many ways in which digital techniques can be used in combination with the more traditional methods to enhance the model-makers work. This book will be of use not only to theatre designers; but to anyone with an interest in scale models of any kind. The book covers; tools and materials; painting and texturing; architectural models; people; trees and organic elements; moving parts; furniture and dressings. Superbly illustrated with 200 colour photographs and drawings.
