About this title

Synopsis

Home computers and digital cameras have given aircraft and train modelers the opportunity to add a very creative and extremely enjoyable new dimension to their hobby. With fairly basic computer and camera skills, the models can be shown in their true environments. Images of aircraft can appear airborne and trains can be brought to life by the simple addition of smoke, steam and footplate crew. In this book the author gives brief tutorials on the methods he uses and many examples of the final results.
