Title: Only for a complete novice
Product review: The book details building of a few Star Trek models. Most of the advice is pretty basic, and feels more like author's modeling journal than manual designed to learn from. Choice of Star Trek models also seems a bit coincidental - I think this book would have been just as good or bad if other Sci-Fi models were shown.Several topics are beyond what I'd consider beginner's subjects: one model is build from a vacuum-formed kit, another with lighting. At the end Borg cube is made from scratch, with pieces being replicated in resin. Despite this, it really doesn't feel like there is a lot of useful advice given.Overall I think it's a good book for a beginner, but not much more.
