"This title is a worthy addition to the other books in this series and deserves to become a classic along with them... Regardless of the skill level of the modeler, there is much between these covers that will be of interest and of clear benefit." -Frank De Sisto,missing-lynx.com "...you are shown everything you need to produce a superlative replica and with several examples to help you along.

Synopsis
This book sets out to answer a wide range of modelers' 'how-to' questions. It begins by showing all the things that need to be done to build a first model. Paints, glues, knives and other basic tools are introduced. Then it moves on to the use of accessories - etched metal sets, turned metal gun barrels, and simple resin conversions. Here the more specialised tools, such as those made for work with etched metal, are discussed. The book includes sections covering working safely with resin, adding camouflage finishes by brush, spray can and airbrush, and ways of reproducing the German anti-magnetic Zimmerit finish that troubles many modellers. The various types of replacement tank tracks are shown with ways to build and paint them, and the different challenges of modeling wheeled vehicles are also addressed. The book continues with demonstrations of how to build a complex conversion or a complete resin kit as well as more simple scratchbuilding (working form raw materials rather than prefabricated kit parts). Researching and making decals for markings when there are no ready-made ones available, display bases and figures are also covered. Everything is straightforwardly explained and clearly illustrated by numerous photographs of steps in the various processes and of finished models.

    This item was exactly as described. The box was in great condition and the parts inside were still sealed with plastic wrap. In fact, it looked almost absolutely new. After a quick inspection of the plastic parts, it appeared to be crisp in detail, as I had been unfamiliar with HobbyBoss. The price was very reasonable and it was packed very carefully, so no damage occurred during shipment. It was shipped fast and arrived very quickly. I would not hesitate to buy from this seller again.

    Item exactly as described at a reasonable price. Packaging was in factory shrink wrap which is a plus and overpacked very well. Shipping was quick and without issue. I needed these to finish off the kit I bought at a show. Thanks for being an upstanding and honest seller!

    Can’t say enough about this seller and their integrity! Initially received a different item than what I had ordered. I contacted the seller and, despite dealing with some personal stressors, their communication was excellent. They sent the correct item as soon as possible at no cost and also allowed me to keep the wrong product. I’ve never had a more positive experience with an eBay seller. Highly recommend!
