Download or read book Cardboard model making written by Dr. Ulrich Böhme and published by Verlag für Technik und Handwerk. This book was released on with total page 231 pages. 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 Nicolaes Witsen and Shipbuilding in the Dutch Golden Age written by A. J. Hoving and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2012-03-29 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1671, Dutch diplomat and scientist Nicolaes Witsen published a book that served, among other things, as an encyclopedia for the “shell-first” method of ship construction. In the centuries since, Witsen’s rather convoluted text has also become a valuable source for insights into historical shipbuilding methods and philosophies during the “Golden Age” of Dutch maritime trade. However, as André Wegener Sleeswyk’s foreword notes, Witsen’s work is difficult to access not only for its seventeenth-century Dutch language but also for the vagaries of its author’s presentation. Fortunately for scholars and students of nautical archaeology and shipbuilding, this important but chaotic work has now been reorganized and elucidated by A. J. Hoving and translated into English by Alan Lemmers. In Nicolaes Witsen and Shipbuilding in the Dutch Golden Age, Hoving, master model builder for the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, sorts out the steps in Witsen’s method for building a seventeenth-century pinas by following them and building a model of the vessel. Experimenting with techniques and materials, conducting research in other publications of the time, and rewriting as needed to clarify and correct some vital omissions in the sequence, Hoving makes Witsen’s work easier to use and understand. Nicolaes Witsen and Shipbuilding in the Dutch Golden Age is an indispensable guide to Witsen’s work and the world of his topic: the almost forgotten basics of a craftsmanship that has been credited with the flourishing of the Dutch Republic in the seventeenth century.
