Daniele Guglielmi and Mario Pieri, authors of the book "Panzer DNA" published by AMMO by Mig Jiménez, present the ITALIENFELDZUG series: an exhaustive study of the ground operations and the most important vehicles fielded by the German army in the Italian campaign. The authors use a wide range of sources including photos from official German and Allied countries´ archives. Detailed information is provided for each photograph based on the extensive research of the subject by the authors.
This book offers a new perspective to both military modellers and historians interested in WWII German Armed Forces and the campaigns in Italy. It is particularly valuable for researchers interested in armoured vehicle operations of the second world war.
This first volume of the ITALIENFELDZUG collection provides in-depth analyses of the Tiger tank, Elefant and Hetzer tank destroyers, Wespe self-propelled guns, and remote-controlled demolition vehicles. This 250-page reference contains more than 400 large photographs, 23 maps, 11 colour profiles, as well as vehicle markings and reproductions of original documents.
Modelling School: Urban Dioramas methodically explains the tricks used by some of the best diorama modellers to build and paint different types of buildings including both modern and historic structures new and weather-beaten. This title also examines each unique component including various roof styles of wooden shingles, slate, or ceramic tiles. Building and painting techniques are shown for different types of façades such as stone, plaster, brick, cement, or concrete and the different types of paths including cobblestone, concrete, asphalt, dirt, and grass surfaces. This complete guide also explains in detail how to make the most common and distinguishing elements found in urban settings such as street lamps, pipes, drains and manholes, signs, wooden or metal elements, and the typical vegetation found growing in urban areas.
This guide also explains in-depth the techniques and products used to achieve all kinds of weathering effects that can be seen on buildings and in urban settings, allowing the reader to choose the level of wear and tear to be depicted in the different elements of each scene or diorama.
Through 124 pages each process is explained in step-by-step detail demonstrated by 450 high-quality photographs, this guide puts many techniques and effects at your disposal. Several degrees of difficulty allow you to choose the level of complexity that best suits your needs and preferences while creating excellent results.
This book is intended for both novice modellers who are just beginning to dabble in the hobby and for those more experienced who want to hone their skills and is sure to be enjoyed by all modellers who love dioramas of all genres, scales, and complexity levels.
Memorizing all this information is quite difficult for most people, so we recommend that you keep this guide at hand and refer to it every time you seek inspiration for future projects or when you need to study the best way to create a specific element of effect for your next diorama in order to achieve original and extremely realistic results.
