Osprey Modelling Masterclass : Panzer Modelling Masterclass (1999)

Tony Greenland shares his expertise and experience in a wide range of techniques and materials, covering the tools, reference sources, construction and conversion methods, and artistic touches that help create visually stunning and minutely accurate masterpieces. This book only covers building German WWII AFV's and figurines in 1/35 scale. It contains easy-to-follow tips on weathering paint, applying zimmerit, scratch building parts, rating cottage industry/major company products, selecting proper hobby tools, painting camouflage, etc. And he encourages modellers to develop a sound intellectual basis with his keen recommendations on reference materials. This book makes seemingly difficult tasks look easy - there are sections on applying zimmerit, applying dry transfers, painting markings, making bolts and chain links, and his recommendations on using oils, enamels, primers, and pastels on plastics, resins, or metals make the book a valuable reference.
