Dear friends,
I would like to inform you that the 2nd book of Scale Model Handbook Series is ready.

This is the second edition in the Scale Model Handbook series, dedicated once again to miniature figures and published on schedule, three months after the first book. The second in the series, ‘Figure Modelling 2’, like the first covers a variety of themes and historical periods.

Herein you’ll find how to paint commercial miniature figures using acrylics, oils or enamels, make groundwork and scenery for presentation, together with a ‘Masterclass Figure Gallery’. Everything is contributed by well-known miniaturists, which we are sure will both inspire you and we hope, keep you occupied for many hours.

The favourable reception and excellent reviews of the first book, gave us strength and encouragement to try even harder for the future editions of the Scale Model Handbook series. We will endeavour do our best to bring useful and accessible books for the modelling community, whom we must thank for their support of this project.

Our thanks go to all the artists sharing their work with us in ‘Figure Modelling 2’, along with special thanks to Charles Davis, Pietro Balloni, Luca Marcetti, Massimo Pasquali and Ken Jones.

We hope you enjoy this second book in the Scale Model Handbook series.

Stelios Demiras
Editor / Publisher

Got the first one, and it is very good.
Quality of the photo's is one of the best I have seen lately. As is the quality of the paper.
And all that for a friendly price.
I highly recommend part one.

So can't wait to get my hands on part 2. I definitly will order it.

Enjoyed the first one and now I'm looking forward to getting my hands on this one (placed my order this past weekend).

Stelios, can you give us any hints on what's coming next? Do you have a topic for Figure Modelling 3 or is that information classified?
 
Dear David,
The final subjects for Figure Modelling 3 are not decided yet, since we are looking for the best topics until the last moment. My graphic designer (my wife) won't let me tell you :)

Today I received my first package from Mr. Black Publications with issues number 1 and 2. The delivery time was pretty quick and the magazines were packed very securely. I am very pleased and I am already looking forward to number 3.
