Within the world of urban scenery, if there is one brand that stands out from the others it is Miniart, offering a huge product catalogue that covers virtually all the needs of the modeller. The author of this guide Jorge Porto del Corral is a specialist in scenography and dioramas and will dispel any doubt that the modeller may have by explaining each and every one of his processes to include the assembly, painting, and setting in a simple, practical and didactic way to resolve any questions that
may arise.
This guide is divided into 4 chapters, starting with a description of the basic materials and documentation needed to prepare your projects. In the second chapter dedicated to assembly, several examples of dioramas are shown with different degrees of complexity, from a simple and basic level to advanced detailing techniques that allow the reader to adapt the dioramas to the tastes and needs of each modeller and subject. 
The third chapter is dedicated to painting and setting where we will see steps, techniques, and various simple tricks to achieve an impeccable finish on all your projects. And finally, a gallery chapter of the models finished using each of the techniques and steps learned throughout this guide.
In short, this book is a complete guide with processes clearly explained through 160 pages and hundreds of high-quality step by step photographs, destined to be a simple and practical tool in the modeller’s library.
