Reviews

some fine artwork from Henry Morshead, which I think modellers will especially enjoy as they offer plenty of idea for those wanting to build a model Panther in an interesting and unusual set of colours and markings
*Military Model Scene*

Overall an excellent reference work on an interesting subject, useful for armour buff or modeller.
