AK Interactive; French Armour – a Guide to Painting & Weathering (AK130027)

French armour of 1940 is some of the most characterful and under-modelled subject matter going, and this guide makes the case for building it. Across 108 pages, a line-up of respected modellers works through a collection of 1:35 WWII French tanks step by step — painting, weathering and the historical context that puts them in their setting. If you want to do something different from the usual German and Allied armour, this is your way in.
