Description
The German Battlecruisers of World War I is a detailed guide to building and modifying model kits of these historic warships. Lavishly illustrated, this book takes you through a brief history of the famous ships of Admiral Hipper's First Scouting Group, highlighting differences between sisterships and changes in their appearance over their careers. You'll find paint schemes and camouflage, featuring color profiles and highly-detailed line drawings and scale plans, as well as reviews of available kits, lists of commercial accessory sets for super-detailing, and hints on modifying and improving the basic kit. The book also features an extensive photographic survey of selected high-quality models in a variety of scales. This volume covers the seven completed ships, including the 'proto-battlecruiser' Blucher, as well as coverage of the ships building or designed by the end of the war.
