Got this book at the weekend ... a friend brought it back from Girona for me. Am in the process of reading through it now .... but after an initial glance, its full of small bases, split leverls, and what comes through without reading one line of text ... the base gets as much (if not more) work than the actual model. It shows ... cause theres lots of inspiration in this book.
