- The
Adventures of Indiana Jones: The Complete DVD Movie Collection

Jones, is hired by the U.S. Government to find the Ark of
the Covenant, which is believed to still hold the ten commandments.

- Modeling
and Painting Figures Book - Probably the greatest test
of the modeler is achieving the perfectly posed figure. This
title explains how best to set up the figure, and goes on
to deal with the niceties of painting, facial expressions,
clothing etc. With no detail unexplored, everything is clearly
explained with step by step photos.
- Special
Effects Make-up - A severed hand reaches across the red
cover of this paperback, and the images in Vinther's book
get progressively more gruesome from there. A European special
effects expert, Vinther clearly specializes in the fare of
horror and science fiction
films-his how-to book is devoted to explaining the tricks
behind making life-like imitations of body parts, monsters
and bloody wounds. For those readers who wonder how to portray
a mangled face or a chopped-off finger, Vinther's is a work
without peer-but they must be ready to stomach the book's
more than 300 gory color images.
