Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cardboard model making is probably one of the first types of model making for which kits or building sheets were offered in series. For the first time, many people were able to build models of real or fictitious buildings and vehicles. It is interesting to note that cardboard model making – even though nowadays there is an almost unlimited variety of materials available for model making – is experiencing a great renaissance and an active community of cardboard model makers has developed. Nowadays there is almost nothing that is not available as cardboard model building sheets – whether from professional publishers or from idealistic suppliers. In this book, Ulrich Böhme looks at cardboard modelling from two perspectives. On the one hand, he describes the history of this form of model making in all its facets. On the other hand, he gives practical tips based on examples from the most diverse areas of cardboard model making. He shows how to create a simple model and how to improve it. He creates entire dioramas and restores aging historical models. In short: In this book he takes you into the fascinating world of cardboard model making! From the content: • Models are contemporary witnesses • Paper as a working material • Early cut-out and model sheets • Publishing houses • Which scale is the right one for me? • Working with paper • Tools • Adhesives • Rounding • Architectural models • Aircraft • Land vehicles • Ships • Special models • Self-build models • Building an old shipyard hall • Dioramas • Restoration and storage

Download or read book Prototyping and Modelmaking for Product Design written by Bjarki Hallgrimsson and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2023-03-06 with total page 579 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in its second edition, Prototyping and Modelmaking for Product Design, by practising product development consultant Bjarki Hallgrimsson, is essential reading for both students and design professionals. Prototyping and ModelMaking for Product Design goes behind the scenes to illustrates how prototypes are used to help designers understand problems better, explore more imaginative solutions, investigate human interaction more fully and test functionality so as to de-risk the design process. Following an introduction on the purpose of prototyping, specific materials, tools and techniques are examined in detail, with step-by-step tutorials and industry examples of real and successful products illustrating how prototypes are used to help solve design problems. Workflow is also discussed, using a mixture of hands-on and digital tools. This new edition includes case studies representing technological developments such as prototyping user experience and interactive electronic products, as well as a new expanded section on digital modelmaking tools, including 3D printing and laser cutting. The first chapters of the book explain why prototyping is so important to the design process. The many uses of prototyping will be shown in the context of several comprehensive projects by some of the world's leading design firms. The second part is an introduction to the typical materials used by designers in their prototyping efforts and how to work with them. In all cases, the approach is to use digital and manual tools in a complementary and effective fashion. Tutorials were specifically developed that underline the back and forth of digital and manual ways of working. The emphasis is on the kinds of construction that can be done by the designers themselves. Health and safety is stressed in terms of personal responsibility and awareness. Topics covered include:Definition of prototyping and modelmakingPrototyping as a form of problem solvingModelmakingPhysical and digital prototypesBuidling by hand and using digital technologies

Download or read book A History of Architectural Modelmaking in Britain written by David Lund and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-16 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Architectural modelmakers have long carried out their work hidden behind the scenes of architectural design, and in presenting a history of architectural modelmaking in Britain for the first time, this book casts a new light on their remarkable skills and achievements. By telling the story of the modelmakers who make architectural models rather than architects who commission and use them, this book seeks to celebrate their often-overlooked contribution to the success and endurance of the architectural model in Britain over the past one hundred and forty years. Drawing from extensive archival research and interviews with practicing and retired modelmakers, this book traces the complete history of architectural modelmaking in Britain from its initial emergence as a specialist occupation at the end of the nineteenth century through to the present day. It reveals the legacy of John Thorp, the first professional architectural modelmaker in Britain, who opened his business in London in 1883, and charts the lives and careers of the innovative and creative modelmakers who followed him. It examines the continually evolving materials, tools, and processes of architectural modelmaking and outlines the profound ideological, economic, and technological influences that have shaped the profession’s development. Illustrated with over one hundred photographs of architectural models from previously undocumented archives, this book will be of great interest to architectural modelmakers, academics, and historians, as well as anyone with an interest in architectural history and modelmaking.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is often annoying that every kit model built from the same kit of the same company is like one egg from the other. This is what creative ship modelling aims to change! Using prefabricated hulls, it is mainly a matter ofthe superstructure, which must be redesigned, sawn out and further processed and further processed, without the need for a construction template. The conversion of kit models shows how to convert ready-built models to a completely new model by converting them to jet propulsion. Finally, the author presents four examples how larger display models can be converted into real driving models to properly running RC ship models by installing a remote-control system. From the content: • Construction of models according to own designs • Building description of two creative models • Building a police boat according to own ideas • Two creative construction models - The MULTIBOAT • A speedboat and a mega luxury yacht • Conversion of kit models - The FLORIDA as a jet model • The RAPIDO 600 as a jet model • A customs cruiser and a fishery protection boat • Conversion of display models to RC models • Cruise ship QUEEN MARY 2 • Sea rescue cruiser HERMANN MARWEDE • German submarine class VII C • American submarine GATO class • REVELL RC ship model already at the end of the 50s
