The author describes in detail the modelling techniques he
employs to create long and short grass, crop, fallow and
freshly ploughed fields, trimmed hedges, mature hedgerows,
hedgerow trees, broadland trees in summer, Scots pine trees,
silver birch, autumn and winter trees, as well as dead and
fallen trees and trees in half relief. Finally, he brings
together all the features that have been covered in the book
and describes the building of a scale model representation of
the field trip photographs in the form of a 3 x 2 ft diorama.
