What to check before ordering

With literature several details decide how useful a title is, and it pays to know them in advance. The language, because the name is German and that does not suit everybody. The extent and the format, that is, the number of pages and the size, which matter most with picture publications. The nature of the contents, that is, whether period photographs, drawings, color profiles or building sequences predominate. And finally the subject, because that is what decides whether the book will really serve you during a build. These details are shown on the box.

Why literature pays off for a modeler

A good book is the most durable aid you can get for the workbench. Paint gets used up and a kit gets built, but reference material serves again with every further model; one period photograph often answers a question that the instructions in a kit pass over in silence. Store the book dry and out of direct sunlight, and both the paper and the spine will last considerably longer.
