Description

Following on from ‘Creative Scenic Modelling’, John Parkinson continues the story of his 30 years of scenic modelling by looking in more depth at his small portable working dioramas, including construction details, modelling techniques and track plans. With the aid of many prototype photos he also describes the background to his models of North Wales, Cornwall, America and Germany. Additionally, he shows how he made two small scenic boards for demonstrating the basic methods and materials he uses, as well as a special section on making rock formations, and also relates some of his exhibition experiences, mentioning people who have helped and encouraged him along the way.
