Congratulations Mick!
Sorry I didn’t get time to read through the whole book. I started but life got in the way.
Looking forward to the final product!

I received feedback from the commissioning editor. He is very pleased with the way the book is coming together. He thinks that the content is very good and that the images are also mostly very good.

He has asked me to rework the chapter with the painting recipes. I am in the process for improving this with more step by step sequences and adding more detail to picture captions. I have already done some of this and sent an updated draft.

As we are in the run up to Christmas, I don't think I can do much more until Boxing Day but I am confident that I will have the updates done by the end of December.

Mick

Good luck with the book! I have always enjoyed your painting guides and found them extremely helpfull when painting my US airborne and german grendiers.

Good News Today.

I rewrote Chapter 6 as the publisher suggested and submitted it to the publisher. This afternoon I got this reply.

"Many thanks for sending me through your final PDF. We’ve now been able to look through the PDF and it looks like it has taken shape very nicely, and it is great to see the inclusion of more step-by-step photographic sequences, which I think work very well. It’s great to hear that you will soon be able to submit everything."

So now we will move to the next stage.

This week I got the email from the publisher that I have been waiting for!

"Many thanks for taking on board my comments, and for making the necessary changes;
I think the new images work very well. I’ll now be sending the book into production."

So this should mean that the official trade launch will be in early May and the book will be on the shelves early October.

Well done, Mick, we look forward to seeing it (and selling it...).
