Very basic. Lots of different techniques, none covered in depth. For the very beginner.

4-0 out of 5 stars Inspirational More Than How To
This is an elegant little book of line illustrations dealing with the art of architectural model building.It is not really a "how to" book.This book is ideal for people who already posses plenty of artistic talent.They will see basic concepts and be able to go from there.

5-0 out of 5 stars A veritable forest
If you have ever been fascinated by this traditional pattern, you must have this book for your library.You will get your money's worth and then some.Before she ever gets to the 15 projects and their step-by-step instructions, Lois gives a history of the block, shows 48 different variations, and provides basics instructions for hand or strip piecing, appliqu� or foundation. There is also a Gallery of quilts, both old and new, providing additional inspiration.Finally, on page 43, we start the projects designed for the book.They range from the simple paper pieced tree made with long strips for each layer of branches to the eye-popping pieced tree with more than 40 triangles.Each pattern is clearly explained with excellent graphics and written instructions.Many of the projects are small, allowing you to try different trees without making a lifetime commitment.5-0 out of 5 stars Enhanced with a colorful gallery of quilts
In Pine Tree Quilts: Perfect Patchwork Piecing, needlecrafter Lois Arnold presents the variety and utility of Pine Tree blocks in quilt making. She offers step-by-step illustrated instructions for more than a dozen projects, some of them are fast and simple, others offer "masterpiece quality" quilting. Highly recommended for novice and practicing quilters, the informative, "user friendly" text is enhanced with a colorful gallery of quilts, fabric requirements, helpful tips, and grid charts. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars VERY Usefull Refrence!
For somebody without any idea about woodworking and carpentry this is VERY usefull, very clear diagrams and explinations on various bench top types and various bench top sizes, a must for any begginer or anyone that may be looking at a diffrent setup than what they have built in the past, you will not be disapointed!

3-0 out of 5 stars Great for big layouts - Overkill for small ones
This book covers everything you need to know about building large scale model railroad benchwork.If you're looking for information on building a basic 4' X 8' bench, there are about 3 pages of information that cover this.If you never plan to get much bigger than 4' X 8', this rest if the information in this book is interesting, however, you may be better served, initially, by a different book.

4-0 out of 5 stars Good book on benchwork
I have to assume this, I was a complete newbie to lumberwork before reading this book, and while I'm still very far to be a master in this particular art in model railroading, I can say this book helped me a lot on the subject. There may be some flaws on advanced subjects as noted on other reviews, such as modular layouts or foam based strategies (which I recently used on a N scale time-saver), but the goal attained on techniques to use on lumber and traditional layouts makes this book a worthy purchase for begginer and intermediate modellers, as it both introduces basic techniques and develops them on more advanced subjects throught the book. ...

Great mix of robots in this book--some "standard" variations on familiar prototypes (using UBS parts) and some pretty out there ones as well that I would have never thought of. Excellent book.

5-0 out of 5 stars NQC
I found the projects interesting and the introduction to Not Quite C NQC excellent. The author demonstrates how to connect the touch sensors and light sensors physically and then add programming code to control the logic that produces power from the central processor to a motor that powers a gear. The basics are simple to understand and the project increase in sophistication and complexity.
3-0 out of 5 stars Good content, but fatally flawed illustrations.
This is a first impression, and may be upgraded later.The textual content, including appendices, is good.Unfortunately, the illustrations have inadequate contrast, and are difficult to interpret even under very bright light.This is due to extensive and unnecessary use of gray scale, both in assembly drawings and flow charts(!).While it is quite possible that Apress printed the grayscale much darker than Mr. Baum intended, I believe the decision to use gray scale at all was flawed.On the other hand, the use of isometric ("3D") projections is entirely appropriate.If reprinted with isometric line drawings (no gray scale) I'd probably rate it 5 stars (especially if I could trade in my gray scale version). ...

4-0 out of 5 stars Not Just For Railraoders
I have owned this book for years and it is a staple of the Model railroad community. But all the techniques and tips are perfectly suited for making dioramas for D&D or wargaming or just plain fantasy dioramas. Which is what I do. I have never made a model railraod but I have made many fantasy dioramas - knights, battles, castles etc.

5-0 out of 5 stars A FANTASTIC BOOK ON MINIATURE ART
This is a book any beginner in miniature art should read. Its inspirational, informative and very interesting. There are many pictures in the book which also serves as a visual treat to stimulate and evoke the artist in anybody. The author, Jane Freeman of this book has not only elevated making miniatures as a pure art form but sanctified its stature with her amazing creations. While reading this book, I noticed one thing very special about this book, the author has a talent which lures us to look at everything in life with the creative eye.

5-0 out of 5 stars Incredible art!
Even reading this book purely for inspiration and enjoyment, it's wonderful and fun. The ideas are imaginative and often breathtaking. I have given this book to many friends from all walks of life who are delighted with its spetacular prose and astonishing miniature worlds. Even for those who are "all thumbs," it's thumbs up, way up!

5-0 out of 5 stars The Art is Obvious
I loved this book.I was inspired by the ideas of the author and her guest artists.Wow! A beautiful book, great photography, fabulous ideas!Creativity and imagination and just plain American know-how.A must read book for miniaturists (is that a word?)Wish I could have given it ten stars. Yes I loved this book. ... Read more

3-0 out of 5 stars More About How to Paint A Model
This is an excellent book but the title is a bit deceptive. It spends a little bit of time at the beginning describing airbrushes but does not go into much depth. There is not much on how to select a great tool. Instead it details techniques for painting models. In this, it does a very good job.
5-0 out of 5 stars perfect for beginers
This book is perfect for anybody who has just purchased an airbrush or has just a little exerience. This book is slanted to modelers (cars, planes, and fiqures) and as such I would not recomend this book if you are not intending to use your airbrush for that purpose. But the book does take you thru a step by step procedures for which airbrush is right for which project, and list some other equipment to use. It even gives a quick description for how to build a cheap spraybooth. The author of the book is mostly known for his work in model cars so many of the techniques that the are slanted toward that purpose but he does delve into someother types of models.The thing that I most appreciated about this book is the ALL of the pictures are in color.

4-0 out of 5 stars A helpful tool.
If you are just begining to use an airbrush this book is a must have. I bought the book before my airbrush gun and the book helped get me the proper equipment and techniques to use it properly. I have since turned off the T.V. and created beutiful memories. ... Read more

My nephew is really into making flying rockets out of paper. He's five. Well, I wanted to impress the little devil, not an easy feat as this young man is more proficient on the computer than I'll ever hope to be, so I got this book, decided to learn how to make a couple complicated paper planes.

I could not remember how to make a good plane.I was just looking for one good plane and I found it in this book:The Phoenix (page 25).Easy to build and my five year old can succesfully throw it.I'm glad I bought the book.After the plane crashes a few times, like all paper planes, they no longer fly correctly.But thanks to John's "trimming and flying" trips, I can make the plane fly well again. ...

4-0 out of 5 stars Village Display Tips: Volume 2
This is a great book to give you some ideas in displaying your villages. It has nice clean pictures and some cool tricks to make water, scenes, ect. The only downfall for me was I wish it had a larger section on mixing trains with village pieces. It does contain a nice chapter on this, but it would be nice to see more info. If just village tips your after, then this is the book for you!

The book was just ok. I thought it was way over priced, I expected to get lots of ideas for building a fabulous display along with directions.There were a few ideas and the discriptions could have been better.I will still use the book and ideas but had I looked at the book before buying it sight unseen, I probably wouldn't have bought it. ...
