| Sheperd Paine, le grand monteur de dioramas et maquettes, est décédé le 1ier aout, à 69 ans. (J'ajouterai plus tard cette semaine) Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheperd_Paine Dans Fine Scale Modelers: http://cs.finescale.com/fsm/general_discussion/f/9/t/167308.aspx"Howard Sheperd Paine, who for six decades tirelessly worked to spread the popularity of the art miniatures worldwide, died on Saturday, August 1. An extraordinary artist, prolific author, widely respected military historian, and renowned collector of military artifacts, he was 69 years old. Universally known to his many friends simply as “Shep,” the artist suffered a stroke at his home on Chicago’s Northwest Side on July 27. Though he never regained consciousness, he spent his final days in the company of loved ones—a small group representing the countless others who came to consider him a friend and mentor through his four books for hobbyists, how-to tip sheets, classes and seminars, co-founding of the tri-annual World Model Expo, and championing of the Open System of Judging for his beloved Military Miniature Society of Illinois and other organizations devoted to the art of miniatures around the world." | |
