Description
This excellent book written by Chema Cabrero shows through detailed step-by-step processes a great variety of paint schemes and various weathering effects on modern Russian/Soviet armored vehicles, including the creation of small scenes that put them in context and add extraordinary appeal.
Through eight chapters, the entire working process on each model is exposed in a very detailed way, and includes an initial guide in which each following step is defined, based on what the modeler wants to represent and with the techniques to be used in each case. The book shows not only the “how” but also the “why” of using each technique.
The figures providing the “human factor” in all the scenes have been made by Daniel Rivas Galindo, and integrate perfectly in the showcased dioramas.
Also included is a section of profiles by Pablo Patricio Albornoz, illustrating alternative painting and camouflage schemes.
The publication contains a large gallery of photographic references, courtesy of well-known modeler Frances Keegan, and a guide with practical advice on the use of different ranges of Vallejo products.

Red Steel! An evocatively titled book of very high publication standards with contents that do not disappoint.
Unlike Youtube videos and other postings found on the internet, this is a real book which has great tactile feel and is visually appealing. It is not a nuts and bolts how to of building modern Soviet and Russian armour. Rather, it contains some detail of a vast subject reduced to an easily consumed showcase of examples providing inspiration and food for thought for those interested in this subject area.
I have not purchased many reference books in recent years but this is one I am pleased with.
a very good book on this topic book arrived with a dented spine even though the shipping box was unmarked. it was well packed. so a mystery there.
