The First World War saw many advances in unprecedented theatres of war and the weapons used to fight: the armoured vehicle, the flamethrower, tracer bullets, chemical weapons, submarines & aviation ... Definitely, this conflict would change the way of understanding wars for at least the next century.
It is for this reason that Accion Press wanted to continue their collection dedicated to aircraft modelling, "Airplanes in Scale", with a volume focused exclusively on the First World War.
Through some of the most emblematic aeroplanes of this era, several procedures and techniques are taught by each author thanks to many detailed photographs with step-by-step captions. In this book, you will learn how to imitate wood, aircraft fabric covering, WWI engines or something very characteristic of these aeroplanes, the different kinds of struts.
This book is one clear and easy-to-follow guide not only for those who love the aircraft of the First World War, but for any modeller who likes this theme but has never dared to make any such model because of its supposed complexity. Many of the techniques presented in this volume can also be used in other aviation topics and even in other modelling disciplines. This is an essential resource for any aviation modeller.
In addition to the aircraft models featured throughout, the publishers have added two articles that show how to paint your WWI pilots.
