Synopsis
The 'ShipCraft' series provides in-depth information about building and modifying model kits of famous warship types. Lavishly illustrated, each book takes the modeler through a brief history of the subject class, highlighting differences between sister-ships and changes in their appearance over their careers. This includes paint schemes and camouflage, featuring color profiles and highly detailed line drawings and scale plans. The modeling section reviews the strengths and weaknesses of available kits, lists commercial accessory sets for super-detailing of the ships, and provides hints on modifying and improving the basic kit. This is followed by an extensive photographic survey of selected high-quality models in a variety of scales, and the book concludes with a section on research references - books, monographs, large-scale plans and websites. The subject of this volume is the largest and most sophisticated German cruiser class of WW2. The five ships suffered very different fates. Blucher was sunk during the invasion of Norway in 1940, whereas Admiral Hipper fought right through the war. The most famous, Prinz Eugen, escaped when Bismarck was sunk and survived to be expended in a postwar Atomic bomb test. Seydlitz was intended to be converted to an aircraft carrier, but never finished, while Lutzow was sold to Russia and sunk by her erstwhile owners., The subject of this volume is the largest and most sophisticated German cruiser class of WW2.

- a***u (982)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseItem as described. I wasn't expecting it to have a brodart cover but that was a plus. Very well packed. In fact, too well packed. Getting through all the packaging was like peeling an onion, layer after layer after layer, and a whole lot of excessive tape - you'd have thought the item was fine china and not a book. I am very happy to recommend this seller and would buy from again, despite the difficulty with removing all the packaging.
