Spanning 304 lavishly produced pages on 150 gsm matte coated paper, the sewn hardcover volume takes readers behind the scenes of six previously unpublished dioramas crafted by master modeler Bernhard Lustig. Rather than simple showcase galleries, each chapter balances authentic archival wartime photography with exhaustive, step-by-step construction and weathering sequences.
What sets this collector’s bundle apart is its curated lineup of exclusive physical extras. Alongside the book’s distinctive orange cover and Bernhard Lustig’s personal signature, the package includes an original resin figure sculpted by acclaimed miniature artist John Rosengrant, as well as two collector posters illustrated by legendary military artist Ron Volstad and Lustig himself.
