“Armour of the Eastern Front 1941-1945” is the first in the new series by Guideline License Publications and the team that brings you Military Modelcraft International in collaboration with Acrylicos Vallejo. The publication examines some of the AFVs that shaped the war on the Eastern Front during World War II – or the “Great Patriotic War” as it is remembered in Russia – which was a titanic conflict and the greatest clash of arms in history. The subjects have been chosen with the modeler in mind and each article provides both reference and inspiration using authoritative text, archival and walkaround photos as well was specially commissioned colour profiles.

New book belonging to the Scenic Atmosphere editorial line, in which the renowned artist Emmanuel Nouaillier shares the procedures and techniques used for recreating the facades of dilapidated buildings in scale. This first volume of the Masterclass series, in which the author shows his personal way of approaching and putting his work into practice, delves into the processes of extreme wear and tear on buildings and the construction and painting of the different materials. Through eleven articles, we are described how to build and paint wood, concrete, bricks, advertising signs, doors and windows, and countless other details, which will make us wonder if the constructions we are contemplating are scale models, and not images of real buildings. The book includes numerous reference photographs, from which the author draws inspiration to recreate the wear and tear and damage that the passage of time causes in buildings, and how it affects each of the materials used in them.

This first book of the The Armoured Side collection offers a presentation of the different color schemes used by the IDF from the very beginning up to the present.

The third instalment in the Landscapes of War series is focused on making dioramas set in rural landscapes. It shows how to build, paint and weather the principal architectural features that can be found in different European locations.

License Publications and the team that brings you Military Modelcraft International in collaboration with Acrylicos Vallejo. The end of the Cold War and the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 should have signaled a lasting ‘peace dividend’ for the countries of NATO. Instead, within a decade, the ‘War on Terror’ had refocused military spending away from conventional arms and the armor-heavy formations of the Cold War era. However, as the level of NATO’s commitment to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq reduced, Russian aggression in the Crimea and Ukraine led to a renewed emphasis on peer-on-peer warfare and a revival of more traditional forms of armored firepower. This book, looks in detail at the armored fighting vehicles employed by NATO armies, their allies and partners, from the end of the Cold War to today. From the mighty Leopard 2 Main Battle Tank to the ex-Warsaw Pact vehicles now employed by NATO’s Eastern European allies and partners. Each article provides a unique historical perspective, well-illustrated by carefully selected photos, and with individual vehicles illustrated in color profiles. On top of this superb reference material, a modelling gallery displays some of the most inspirational NATO armor models from the pages of Military Modelcraft International
