Sheperd
Paine did more than anyone to elevate modeling to the level of an art
form - one that includes elements of painting, sculpting, research, and
storytelling. Building and painting miniature figures, armor, aircraft,
and ships with equal skill, and displaying a broad scope of knowledge
and interests ranging from the Napoleonic era to WWII, Paine created
incredibly detailed and masterfully rendered vignettes and dioramas.
This is the first book to examine all of his remarkable work, cataloging
it with more than seven hundred beautiful photos, and charting the life
experiences that formed these creations in an interesting,
conversational format.
