Howdy.
Just saw a book titled "Armor Modelers Guide" by the late, great Mr. Paine. I have some of his older books and was wondering if it is a reprint of one those, specifically, "Modeling Tanks and Military Vehicles."
In the description of the book it claims that it also features work from some of the world's finest modelers. I know "Modeling Tanks..." also features some well known names from the old school, like Francois Verlinden.
I really dig Paine's work (since he was integral in getting me into armor in the first place) and would like to get this book if it is not just an older book with a new cover.

Looks to be a rehash of most of the same with a few new items thrown in for good measure. If you like Shep's work get it.

Thanks, Damon. I'll order it and see, and if it is a duplicate of what I have, I'll gift it to somebody.
