The former Fine Scale Modeling, in addition to the Modeling Annual, also publishes the Logging, Mining & Industrial Annual, and the Narrow Gauge Annual. I agree that there is some fine modeling in the Modeling Annual and the techniques used are scale independent.

Discovered they no longer carry it in stock! Looks like most of us who used to rely on a neighborhood hobby shop will have to move to DesPlains, Ill. I really haven't had to mail order common items since I was a kid back in South Dakota; more than once I've driven down to one of the three major shops in my hobby clothes (grubby-paint stained cutoffs and sandals) to get what I needed in mid task, and continue working. Anyway I spent a few minutes looking at the various magazines on their rack (they still have a good selection of those including the S Gaugian) and found one of my favorites that used to be called Fine Scale Modeling now labeled the Modeler's Annual. It seems as though they've cut back a bit on things, but what they feature is excellent work although generally in the larger scales. If you like weathering and structures, this is a great reference book--but not cheap! Bob Werre ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
