Auriga Publishing announces their 13th volume on the Static Model Manual series. It will be focused in Dioramas - Elements in Combat.
This book will be available next December, with 84 pages in full colour.

Written by Jose Brito, this is the introduction provided:

Scale modelling is, probably the most complete way to represent the real world. This fantastic form of art involves construction, detailing, composition, painting, sculpting, weathering and many, many other. Scale modelling is a small piece of the world. A world in scale, showing a specific situation. In scale modelling we have a geographical and a time frame. In every work we see a story and a moment crystallized in scale. We can represent natural landscapes, urban scenarios, rivers, seas, waterfalls, all kind of soils, all kind of vegetation, sci-fi ships, planes, boats, tanks, trucks and even an entire army! Scale modelling is a magic world. A mini world of countless hours of fun and pleasure.
Only a modeller knows the feeling of holding a finished model, after several months of hard working. That moment is pure magic and can transport us to a different world or dimension.
In this book, my goal is to transmit all my scale modelling knowledge. Also, I want to transmit the passion and joy that I feel in a daily basis while working in a model.
Hope you like it. Enjoy the reading!

Is one single magazine written in both English and Italian, or do you have to select the language somewhere? I'm a little confused as I select the 'Europe' button but I can't see a confirmation that it will be in English when ordering? Italian wouldn't make sense to me Also 'available in December 2016'; so this is like pre-ordering or am I missing something here? Thanks, Steven
