MODELINGVIEWS
With the use of Casting Masters and the Vinyl Cement Patcher technique, you not only create all-weather models . . . you can now create and model almost any structure you want. Part of the fun of modeling is gathering reference material. Like finding natural stone along the road, traveling to railroad points of interest or milling around a waterwheel mill makes for a lot of side-trips! Many of our customers know this about us. So they call to see if we've photographed another view. So we invented ModelingViews – the visual information you want to know "about the other side."
Each includes up to 8 different photographic views or details of a single structure in full color. Printed on a 11" x 17" paper stock they are double laminated.

"Stoneworks has come up with a new wrinkle in modeling aids –
the ModelViews series. These 11"x17" sheets, containing
up to eight color photos of a specific structure, are not intended
to supply a modeler with compelete information regarding a building,
but just to help out with details – things like, "What's
the back side look like?" or "What color is it really?"
or "How might it be weathered?" or "What does it look
like in its natural setting?" |
