AN INCREDIBLE APPROACH FROM SCALE MODELLING TO TRUE LIFE
I have been a keen modeller most of my life enjoying making minia-
ture scenes and models of all types. I have also studied Art at college
and worked as a semi professional artist for many years. with the
articles in this book i have combined the two interests into one and
portray scale model making as an expressive piece of art that would
feel at home in any art gallery. With some of the world attended
model shows like Euro Militaire and Scale model challenge & the
competitions that take place in them i think the work on display in
these type of shows should be rewarded with a wider audience. The
work is pure 3D art that many 1D artists would be extremely proud
to produce. It is far from the plastic airfix planes most of the world
would think we build. I have found myself straying away from the
traditional dioramas of late like WWII subjects and instead produc-
ing some random but very rewarding to make scenes in miniature.
Ones to represent Extreme reality. Its an art form now that is start-
ing to grab the interest of other modellers and a lot more everyday
subjects are being produced now from Oil drums to Tractors to run
down buildings. The military automotive,naval and aviation sub-
jects have company in the way of reality and fantasy now. I thank
AK Interactive for the opertunity in showing my work amongst
other top modellers from around the globe in this publication. I
hope all the readers enjoy the articles and spread the word and
help to promote this ever growing art-form of scale model making.
Modelling has rewarded me with lots of new friends worldwide
which without this hobby i would never had the pleasure to know.
One such friend is John Simmons who i met at Euro militaire. I in-
stantly got on with John and his infectous personality. He is an
extremely talented guy . He introduced me to another very talented
guy at that same show in the name of Kristof Pulinckx who i have
over the past year had the pleasure of working with in another
publication Tanker Magazine again by AK.
I was in talks with john about my work and it inspired him to make
a diorama of his Dads classic and rare tractor. John made an abso-
lutely beautiful job of the model and it is very hard to distiguish
model from real tractor and its surroundings. John recently invited
a small group of friends and model makers to stay for the weekend
at his caravan park in Mersea Essex England. While i was there John
showed me the barn with the tractor in it. When i had my picture
taken with John in the barn it felt like i had been scaled down and
was standing in Johns diorama. Thankyou John for the exsperience
and you friendship. Enjoy.
