The tanks, their power plants and production techniques used by each manufacturer are shown from assembly line to front line through this profusely illustrated book, including numerous never before published vintage photos. Modellers of all abilities will learn from Robert's techniques for vehicle scratchbuilding, figure sculpting, painting and weathering with detailed step-by-step guides to apply the tips, tricks and methods to your own projects. Whether you're a modeller or enthusiast of wartime German motorcycles, equipment and uniforms Robert presents a wealth of information with the dissection of every component in detail, rare wartime images and comprehensive walk-around colour photographs of a contemporary restoration. AUTHOR: Commissioned to write his first book in 2003, a 512-page volume on the history of US military vehicles, since that time over 100 of his books have been published. While most of these concern historic military hardware, including aircraft and warships, his volumes on military vehicles, meticulously researched by David and his wife Denise, remain the genre for which he is most recognized. This recognition reached its pinnacle in June 2015, when he was presented the coveted Bart Vanderveen Award by the Military Vehicle Preservation Association, given in recognition of ... the individual who has contributed the most to the historic preservation of military vehicles worldwide. 870 illustrationsProduct Identifiers
