In the UK, Alec Tiranti Ltd (supplier of casting rubber, sculpting tools
etc.) do some useful booklets on creating masters and making moulds - I
guess someone in the US must do something similar. However, reading a
booklet on it won't give you the skill needed to sculpt a miniature well
-
only talent and practice can do that (just like reading a book on
painting
ceilings would not automatically make you the next Michaelangelo)....
