Basics of Ship Building by Mike Ashey
The bible today for the Resin Model shipbuilder. This book will give step by step pictures on building resin kits plus photoetching. This is the best book for the beginner to experienced builder on the newer special high price kits.

1. Building Plastic Kits
2. Building Resin Kits
3. Scratch building & Detailing Superstructure Shapes
4. Working with Brass & Stainless Steel Photoetching
5. Painting, Masking, & Decal Application

There is also an 18-page section of color photographs of finished models by Mike and others. Of the hundreds of black and white how - to photos. I recognized very few from his first book.  Most highly recommended.
