Sorry to be negative and I am doing this from a personal perspective but I was really disappointed in this book.

Lots of useful information, diagrams, plans and photos but the modelling section varied dramatically. The larger scale models were gorgeous but some of the other ones were er not so good.

It also said it had a list of boat models that were available but many were not according to the text and there are models out there that are not mentioned.

If the model section was dropped, apart from the good ones, and more details on how to create those models it would have been a winner.

Agreed. That's a pretty fair assesment.

Needs an edit...

Bit out of practice, however new reinforcements have arrived...

More ARVN with M16s to bulk out another section.

Couldn't resist a few slight conversions on some doubles.

60mm Mortars for the NVA

...and couldn't not get these chaps. Going to have a go at a faded ERDL, at least that's the plan.

Looking forward to see how you do faded ERDL, I'm going to shamelessly copy your method

Same here, going to be somewhat made up as I go.
So far all the grey mater has come up with is very thin paint & a dry brush!

Going to start with the ARVN, just to get the painting engine back into gear.
