The armored forces of the North African and European theaters are depicted in 390 color paintings of tanks and related vehicles. Units from the United States, Britain, France, the Soviet Union, Italy and Germany all receive extensive coverage.

I use this book as a guide line for my period painting of scale models of armoured vehicles of World War Two. The paintings in this book are of great detail and cover both the early and later parts of the war. Most of the vehicle paintings are show more accompanied by smaller pictures showing details of unit insignia and alternate turrets and other fittings.

This is not a technical manual of the vehilces. It is more of a catalog of the camouflage schemes used during the period. A large aid for the modeller.
