Model Vehicles Vol I - Following the outstanding success
of the first two volumes in this new series, this volume is
the first dealing with 1:35 scale military vehicles. This
book carries on the Verlinden tradition of displaying highly
detailed scale models with beautiful full color photographs.
Six of the seven models showcased were built by the highly
competent professional modelers at Verlinden Productions Studios.
The first vehicle to cross the pages is the ubiquitous WWII
German Tiger tank, enhanced with highly detailed resin and
photo-etched metal parts from Verlinden Productions, painted
and weathered to perfection. The next vehicle, a U.S. Army
Deuce -and-a-half cargo truck from WWII, is shown in all of
its glory, spiced up with more resin and photo-etched detail
parts from Verlinden Productions, its cargo bed loaded with
various supplies. A Russian KV-1 tank of WWII vintage is featured
in a fine study of weathering techniques. Two German WWII
softskins, the amphibious Schwimmwagen and! the popular Steyr
command & communications vehicle, are updated with resin
and photo-etched detail parts from Verlinden Productions,
and painted and weathered using the famous techniques pioneered
by Francois Verlinden himself. Another infamous German behemoth
from WWII , the Panther tank, is detailed with no less than
four different detail sets from Verlinden Productions. With
all of the additional parts, from the unique German zimmerit,
to a fully detailed engine, this model is true to scale in
weight as well as detail. Finally, we come to an outstanding
model of the Soviet T-72M1 main battle tank under the Iraqi
flag. This painstakingly researched and detailed model was
built by a highly skilled modeler, Charlie Pritchett, who
is currently employed on the staff at Verlinden Productions
Studios.

- Modelling
the US Army M4 (75mm) Sherman Medium Tank - The Sherman
tank was the principal US and Allied tank of World War II
with more Shermans manufactured than all German tanks combined.
Not only were large numbers manufactured, but there was a
very wide range of variants powered by different types of
engines, manufactured with different types of hulls, turrets
and other details. As a result, a M4A1 tank from the Tunisian
campaign in 1942 had nothing in common with a M4A3E8 tank
from the 1945 campaign in Germany, even if they shared the
same name. Consequently, the Sherman has proven to be an enormously
popular modeling subject.
