Great for the Beginner

This book covers the basics very well, and actually has some more advanced topics too. The content is well written and the pictures are excellent. It covers everything from start to finish. I looked for a book specific to plastic aircraft models, but this book does the trick and applies to the basics for all plastic models.
Great for starters

Can't beat the price. Covers the basics on just about every aspect of automotive modeling. I recently started building again and this book has definitely helped. Starts off with tools you'll need to start building. Information on detailing engines and chassis(s),interior(s), exteriors, tires, etc. Discusses painting techniques for detailing and exterior finishes. I highly recommend this book if you are starting in the hobby or even if you've been building for years. I guarantee you will learn a new trick.
