| Here's another new CD by Flagship Models that will help get started building resin ship models. | |
| This one feature the work of well known modeler Ray Bean in which he describes how he built his "Keepers of the Sea part 1" diorama and Part 2 "The fighting 58th". Ray's diorama's are illustrated in photo's text, and line drawings, that do a good job of describing his techniques. I have one complaint about the photo's. they are not high enough resolution for my tastes. They are perfect for the web, but this would be a perfect format for really high resolution pictures. Never the less they do a good job of illustrating the work and this is more of a how to rather than a showcase of Ray's ships. The ships are all set in high sea's and techniques such as water making and positioning ships for a realistic effect. This CD has tips for detailing the 1/700 Dragon/Skywave Light Carriers and Pit-Road Cleveland Class Cruisers. | |
