Could have been so much better,

This review is from: Modelling Postwar Tanks (Modelling Manuals) (Paperback)
First, a warning. This book was first published in Spain in 1992. I began to suspect something was up when there was oddness in some of the sentences. For example, what we in the US would call a track guard, the authors call a skirt. What Americans refer to as a skirt, they refer to as a side-skirt.This book could have been better by adding more pages, cutting the number of subjects, providing plans for some of the scratch-built pieces (especially for the MG shield for the Sheridan, and hull pieces for the M43 HMC and M41 HMC), and general updating. You won't find many assembly tips, but there is quite a bit on painting and weathering. The subjects are T-54 (back-dating the ESCI T-55), T-62BDD (Tamiya), M551 (Academy), M43 HMC (Tamiya), M41 HMC (Italeri), M60A1 RISE (ESCI), Israeli M60A1 w/Blazer (Tamiya), and the S Tank (Accurate Armour). The Merkava and T-34/85 (in Croatian colors) are also in here, but the articles are totally on painting/weathering as they don't even mention what kits were used. |
