    Incredible reference book, your kit box openings and model builds are excellent, book references are too because they give so many variations to work with. We have an expression in the US, " I'll but that on my bucket list" , in other words I need to remember to get a certain item. Recently I am having to change my list from bucket to barrel. Thanks for sharing

    THANK YOU for a very thorough, useful book review. I attempted to use Michigan Toy Soldier here in the U.S. to order a copy but, OF COURSE, got the good old Out of Stock notice. Why bother? Should have gone directly to the website as you suggest. I do appreciate your review and hope Plastic Invasion won’t be out of stock! Cheers.

      Thank you for your reply. Alas I will not add your reviewed volume to my modeling reference library. No problem finding it available on Plastic Invasions website. €59.00 book cost. €30.00 Czech post to the U.S.! As always, a deal killer. and the reason I tried to make the purchase from a domestic source. It’s a pity.

    Thanks very much for the great review mate. Looks like an interesting resource, especially if like myself, you do use vallejo paints.
    Nice historical references too. Maybe a bit price restrictive for me, right now but since it's full colour for the painting tutorials, you can see why.
    Hopefully there'll be an allies and commonwealth version soon, thats just as detailed. Now that I would buy. Those british para denison smocks are mad to paint right.
    Anyway, thanks again for taking the time to buy and review it. Really helps.

      Did the allies use much camouflage , I only know of the British paras smock , and the us marine camo .

      Good point - I'm not sure. I was recently looking up the uniform that ATS women wore and it was basically just the same as the men's uniform in terms of colour. Not much variation across the board I think.

    That book is really detailed and also a very good "how to" book. I have difficulty painting faces also. i find for 1/35 scale figures I have to use my strongest magnifying glasses but sometimes on the figures the moulding around the eyes is not good enough to get the detail shown in that book. Maybe these people only use the latest super detailed figures and not those from older kits.

    • @ModelNerd
      @ModelNerd  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Definitely high quality figures play an important role in getting good results.

    Not impressed at all!
    Don’t want history fillers
    Don’t want b&w photos
    Don’t want general painting tips
    I do want German (Nazi) camouflage colours
    I do want colour photos of the camouflage
    So remove all the non camouflage stuff and hooray! A book that deals with why we actually bought it and probably noticeably cheaper?
