Tamiya Book
Posted by Anonymous on Monday, January 12, 2004 7:43 PM
I just finished reading 'Master Modeler: Creating the Tamiya Style'. I would recommend this book to any modeller out there. It takes a look at the hobby from a macro perspective and outlines all the work needed to make a successful plastic model. Has anyone else read this book?

I haven't read that specific book, but I have read mnay of the books released over here by other makers and pro-Modellers.

Most of them seem to be really good.

Well, if you go to amazon.com , they are selling this book for USD 24.50 plus shipping.
