Synopsis
At some point in childhood, all men dabble with paint, PVA and papier mache, balsa-wood, cardboard and sticky-back plastic, hoping to make the models of their dreams a reality. While some fall by the wayside, put away childish things and dream instead of another kind of model, others stay true to their childhood selves and ultimately create things far more amazing than their early visions. In this book, Ian Marchant delves into the lives of men who have succeeded, meeting the minds behind the models and the models themselves - from concrete dragons to a life-sized dragster, half-size tanks to a cowboy ranch, a Wurlitzer organ to a robotic falcon. Each of these fascinating stories is accompanied by photographs of man and model. This is a model gift for blokes of all ages.
