HOW TO BUILD...
TAMIYA’S ARMOUR KITS IN 1:35
Though the modelling world is awash with an
incredible variety of military vehicle kits from a
huge number of different companies, one stands
head and shoulders above the others in terms
of originality, buildability and fun. That company
is Tamiya, who have consistently provided the
budding enthusiast with some of the finest kits
available in the scale of 1:35.
This new book brings together five detailed
features that will show what is possible from this
extensive range of kits. In so doing, it offers hints
and tips, detailed step-by-step guides and written
descriptions on all manner of techniques from
basic construction, through detailing, painting and
realistic weathering. No stone is left unturned in the
quest to inspire the modeller to complete similar
projects for themselves. It really is a one-stop-shop
for the budding military modeller!
Within its 84 pages you will five find features that
take you through the construction and painting of
the ‘Easy Eight’ Sherman, Nashorn, Elefant, Gama
Goat and Tiran 5, all expertly put together by our
renowned team of authors, Spencer Pollard, Brett
Green and Marcus Nicholls, who have
created one of the finest collections of
modelling features ever published,
on this famous range of kits.
This then is the world of Tamiya’s
wonderful 1:35 military vehicle kits
plus p&p
– we hope that you enjoy your visit!
