First up, the latest release TANKART 3 Modern Armor. The third installment in the TA series on
painting and weathering armor, this title focuses on post-war subjects. At a
newly revised and expanded 224-page format, the book is broken down into 3
technique chapters and 6 model chapters, with 1 chapter being from guest
author, modern armor specialist -- Andy Taylor.
TA 3 will also usher a new
graphics style and will coincide with a new company logo and rebranded website,
set to debut with the new book's release in June.

Following on the heels of TA 3, will be a revised and
updated TANKART 1 German Armor (2nd
Ed.) printing. This book will be a finalized version of the title, cleaned up
and corrected in the same expanded 224-page format and revised graphics seen
with TA 3. Included in this 2nd Ed printing is a new chapter from a new guest
author, (a complete model chapter in it's own right) by world class armor modeller
Lester Plaskitt. His Gold Medal EuroMilitaire winning Sd.Kfz 251 halftrack and
figures will be featured in print for the first time and make TA 1 an even more
substantial volume.
Shortly after the release of TA 1 (2nd Ed), RSP will release
TANKART 4 German Armor, featuring another round of extensive painting and
weathering of new camo schemes to bolster the collective knowledge of this
broad subject matter. A new guest will appear, again with new unpublished work
from Mario Eens, a Belgian modeller whose work is continually the standard by
which all armour modelling can be judged against. His captured Char B1 bis is
at the highest levels seen in the hobby and TA 4 will feature that and 5
additional model chapters from the RSP workbench.
For the second half of 2014, TANKART 5 Allied Armor and TANKART
6 Modern Armor will complete the year.
But that's not all that is in the works from RSP. Two new titles are set in place and will begin production in the coming months. AIRPLANEART 1 Allied Aircraft is currently being developed to take the same fantastic format and style started with the TA series and apply that to aircraft subjects. Alongside this effort, a non-military subject series called CONSTRUCTART is planned to showcase what can be done with endless variety of equipment used in the civilian sectors. One walk by any construction site will illustrate what is coming from RSP for the future expansion of their catalog!
This new TankArt III
and all of the other Rinaldi Studio Press books
(as well as some combo packs) are available on their website.
